Automation and control of yeast fermentation


Technical University of Denmark


General course objectives:
This course aims to provide participants with an understanding of the theory and skills needed to make decisions related to on-line sensor selection in view of establishing closed-loop control on a model fermentation process (yeast). Participants will be introduced to the theory of process control, and will learn how to use model simulations to study the effect of applying control to a bioreactor. On-line sensor concepts will be introduced, and the participants will learn how to work with on-line data, first in terms of detecting outliers and replacing missing values, and then for classification.

Learning objectives:
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:
  • - Implementation of a system of coupled differential equations on a yeast fermentation process
  • - Simulation of a system of coupled differential equations on a yeast fermentation process
  • - Gain knowledge about standard and advanced sensors
  • - Apply control to a yeast fermentation process (in a simulation model)
  • - Local sensitivity analysis
  • - Missing value replacement and outlier detection in on-line data
  • - Classification of datasets
  • - Gain knowledge about standard and advanced sensors
