Takagi-sugeno multiple-model controller for a continuous baking yeast fermentation process

The purpose of this work is to design a fuzzy integral controller to force the switching of a bioprocess between two different metabolic states. A continuous baking yeast culture is divided in two sub-models: a respiro-fermentative with ethanol production and a respirative with ethanol consumption. The switching between both different metabolic states is achieved by means of tracking a reference substrate signal. A substrate fuzzy integral controller model using sector nonlinearity was built for both nonlinear models.
