Abstract

The paper studies the design and analysis of some nonlinear and neural adaptive control strategies for a wastewater treatment process, which is an activated sludge process with nonlinear, time varying and not exactly known kinetics. In fact, an adaptive controller based on a dynamical neural network used as a model of the unknown plant is developed and then is compared with a classical linearizing controller. The neural controller design is achieved by using an input-output feedback linearization technique.
