When treating municipal wastewater, the disposal of sludge is a problem of growing
importance, representing up to 50% of the current operating costs of a wastewater treatment …

Distillery spent wash is the unwanted residual liquid waste generated during alcohol
production and pollution caused by it is one of the most critical environmental issue. Despite …

Anaerobic digestion is an excellent technique for the energetic valorisation of various types
of biomass including waste forms. Because of its complex nature, the optimisation and …

We consider a control problem for a single bioreaction occurring in a continuous and well-
mixed bioreactor, assuming that the bioreaction's kinetics is not represented by a validated …

Over the last 40 years many different control methodologies for substrate feed control of
anaerobic digestion processes have been proposed in order to increase plant efficiency and …

Finding appropriate operating strategies for biochemical reactors is a difficult task. One of
the main reasons is the complexity of the underlying biological processes. This paper …

Biogas production rate was modeled and estimated in a thermophilic upflow anaerobic
sludge blanket digester. Data set covers a time period of both steady-state conditions and an …

In this work, a new multi-objective control strategy based on the concentration of volatile fatty
acids (VFAs) in the effluent and the methane flow rate (Qch4) has been proposed for an …

In the past decade, industrialisation has led to tremendous development, improving the
living standards both socially and medically. However, with the increase in population and …

To address the robust output feedback tracking problem for total outflow rate of two-stage
anaerobic digestion (AD) process with input saturation, a novel performance guaranteed …
