Yeast Fermentation Bioreactor for Ethanol Production

First principles dynamic simulator of a yeast fermentation bioreactor for ethanol production.

Description

This is a nonlinear system of differential and algebriac equations, that describe the dynamics of a continuous bioreactor. The bioreactor simulates the production of ethanol through yeast fermentation. The model is described in:

Z. K. Nagy, Model Based Control of a Fermentation Bioreactor using Optimally Designed Artificial Neural Networks, Chemical Engineering Journal, 127, 95-109, 2007.

Additional nonlinear, first principles models can be found at:

Special thanks to Zoltan Nagy for his submission to this collection of models.

• Required Products: Simulink
• MATLAB release: MATLAB 7.2 (R2006a)

Now you need to describe how this can be applied to homebrewing and wine making. Now that would be useful. Sorry, I just had to throw in my 2 cents.

yet to test

[kenneth mainasara Achi]

u are try in your work both u need to improd your reseache

[Kenneth Mainasara Achi]

i am impress with the result

[Mario Cabanas]

I'm new in MatLab please can you say me how to input the constants?
mu max, ks and Yield in order to get graphics time vs cX, cP, and cS for my constantes?

thx

Excellent
