Robustly Feasible Optimizing Control of Network Systems under Uncertainty and Application to Drinking Water Distribution Systems

This paper addresses the dissolved oxygen tracking problem in multi-zone bioreactor. The proposed approach utilizes decentralized control system incorporating fuzzy multiregional PI controllers so that satisfactory controller performance can be robustly and reliably achieved over a whole process operating range. A fuzzy supervisor of the completely decentralized control system is introduced in order to meet a global actuator capacity constraint. An overall control system can be implemented by using fairly standard equipment that is commonly available at a plant site.
