Near-optimal productivity control of a continuous bioreactor by a conv
entional proportional-integral controller poses stability problems, an
d certain nonlinear controllers yield excessive variation of the manip
ulated variable. A nonlinear controller based on the Hammerstein model
is proposed to overcome such problems. The performance of the propose
d nonlinear control is compared with that of the nonlinear controllers
proposed by Henson and Seborg.
