Abstract :
A simple adaptive high-gain regulator is designed for a nonlinear multivariable Biogas Tower Reactor. The controller achieves tracking of the constant reference signals within a prespecified λ-neighbourhood within a prespecified time T. The adaptation strategy is very robust and tolerates large disturbances. The results have been tested on an industrial pilot reactor of almost full scale plant.
