Unlocking feedforward capabilities in Model Predictive Control algorithms to deal with measurable disturbances
José Luis Guzmán, Igor Pataro, Juan D. Gil +1
Disturbance rejection is a central objective in process control, particularly when measurable disturbances can be exploited through feedforward action. Although Model Predictive Co…
A Comprehensive Benchmark Platform for Process Control Research of Outdoor Microalgae Raceway Reactors
Enrique Rodríguez-Miranda, Pablo Otálora, José González-Hernández +2
This paper presents a benchmarking framework to evaluate process control strategies in outdoor microalgae raceway reactors, integrating four key control regulation tasks: pH, disso…
Enhancing industrial microalgae production through Economic Model Predictive Control
Pablo Otálora, Sigurd Skogestad, José Luis Guzmán +1
The industrial production of microalgae is an important and sustainable process, but its actual competitiveness is closely related to its optimization. The biological nature of the…
Reinforcement learning meets bioprocess control through behaviour cloning: Real-world deployment in an industrial photobioreactor
Juan D. Gil, Ehecatl Antonio Del Rio Chanona, José L. Guzmán +1
The inherent complexity of living cells as production units creates major challenges for maintaining stable and optimal bioprocess conditions, especially in open Photobioreactors (…
