Abstract

The paper studies the design and analysis of a neural adaptive control strategy for a class of square nonlinear bioprocesses with incompletely known and time-varying dynamics. In fact, an adaptive controller based on a dynamical neural network used as a model of the unknown plant is developed. The neural controller design is achieved by using an input–output feedback linearization technique. The adaptation laws of neural network weights are derived from a Lyapunov stability property of the closed-loop system. The convergence of the system tracking error to zero is guaranteed without the need of network weights convergence. The resulted control method is applied in a depollution control problem in the case of a wastewater treatment bioprocess, belonging to the square nonlinear class, for which kinetic dynamics are strongly nonlinear, time varying and not exactly known.
