Model Formulation

The dynamic model is an ODE model:


\begin{array}{rcl}
\dot{X}&=&-DX+\mu X \\
\dot{S}&=& D(S_{f}-S)-\mu /Y_{xs} X \\
\dot{P}&=&-DP+ (\alpha \mu +\beta) X.
\end{array}

The right-hand side of these equations will be summed up in  f(x, S_f) .

The three states describe the concentration of the biomass (X), the substrate (S), and the product (P) in the reactor. In steady state the feed and outlet are equal and dilute all three concentrations with a ratio D. The biomass grows with a rate \mu, while it eats up the substrate with the rate \mu/Y_{xs} and produces product at a rate (\alpha \mu +\beta). The rate \mu is given by:

\mu = \mu_{m}*(1-P/P_{m})*S/(K_m+S+S^2/K_i)

The fixed parameters (constants) of the model are as follows.

Parameters
Name Symbol Value Unit
Dilution D 0.15 [-]
Rate coefficient K_i 22 [-]
Rate coefficient K_m 1.2 [-]
Rate coefficient P_m 50 [-]
Substrate to Biomass rate Y_{xs} 0.4 [-]
Linear slope \alpha 2.2 [-]
Linear intercept \beta 0.2 [-]
Maximal growth rate \mu_m 0.48 [-]

Mathematical formulation

Writing shortly for the states in vector notation x=(X,S,P)^T the OCP reads:


\begin{array}{clcl}
 \displaystyle \min_{x,S_f} & J(x,S_f)\\[1.5ex]
 \mbox{s.t.} 
 & \dot{x} & = & f(x,S_f)\\
 & x(0) & = & (6.5,12,22)^T \\
 & S_f & \in  &[28.7,40].
\end{array}

Objective


J(x,S_f)=\int_0^{48}D(S_f-P)^2dt
