Optimized Dissolved Oxygen Fuzzy Control for Recombinant <i>Escherichia coli</i> Cultivations

Due to low oxygen solubility and mechanical stirring limitations of a bioreactor, ensuring an adequate oxygen supply during a recombinant <i>Escherichia coli</i> cultivation is a major challenge in process control. Under the light of this fact, a fuzzy dissolved oxygen controller was dev...

description Due to low oxygen solubility and mechanical stirring limitations of a bioreactor, ensuring an adequate oxygen supply during a recombinant <i>Escherichia coli</i> cultivation is a major challenge in process control.

The algorithm was coded in MATLAB with its membership function parameters determined using an Adaptive Network-Based Fuzzy Inference System tool.
