Modelling and robust control design of a semi-batch reactor
Authors: Franti?ek Gazdo?
Abstract
The paper uses modelling and simulation means to design a convenient control system for an exothermic semi-batch reactor used for tanning waste recovery. It is shown that this highly nonlinear system can be successfully controlled by a relatively simple fixed controller designed in a robust way. The systematic polynomial approach with some results from the robust control theory are fruitfully exploited for the goal in this paper. First, a simplified mathematical model of the process with all physical parameters and technological limits is presented. Further, a complete procedure of control system design including system identification, controller design, robustness analysis and simulation verification are described in detail.
