This thesis focuses on soft sensor development based on fuzzy logic used for real time
online monitoring of anaerobic digestion to improve methane output and for robust …

Water plays a central role in the existence and activities of mankind. First of all, within the
human body, water serves as the main vector for assimilation, excretion and transportation …

Anaerobic digestion with biogas production has both economic and environmental benefits.
25% of all bioenergy in the future could potentially be sourced from biogas. Although …

In studies of waste treatment, waste characterization can be regarded as one of the most
important tasks because the waste composition and concentrations greatly affect the …

Ein großes Dankeschön gilt meiner Mutter, die mich stets unterstützt und mir immer das
Gefühl gegeben hat, alles schaffen zu können, was ich mir vornehme. Meiner Freundin und …

Freshwater scarcity is a growing concern, prompting the exploration of water reuse
strategies. Anaerobic wastewater treatment is gaining popularity due to its low energy …

The use of renewable energy sources is a major concern nowadays, where efforts are made
to achieve higher efficiencies. Among the different possibilities, Biogas production from …

A variable-gain controller for anaerobic digestion of industrial winery wastewater is
presented. A control law using both volatile fatty acids (VFA) and methane production rate as …

In this paper, we aim to use stochastic modeling approaches in order to build a model for an
anaerobic digestion process. We consider a two-species and two-substrate process which is …

This paper presents the design and the experimental validation of a nonlinear control
approach for the regulation of volatile fatty acids (VFA) in an anaerobic digester. Such an …
