An active Fault Tolerant Model Predictive Control (FTMPC) using Fuzzy scheduler is developed. Fault tolerant Control (FTC) system stages are broadly classified into two namely Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) and fault accommodation. Basically, the faults are identified by means of state estimation techniques. Then using the decision based approach it is isolated. This is usually performed using soft computing techniques. Fuzzy Decision Making (FDM) system classifies the faults. After identification and classification of the faults, the model is selected by using the information obtained from FDI. Then this model is fed into FTC in the form of MPC scheme by Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy scheduler. The Fault tolerance is performed by switching the appropriate model for each identified faults. Thus by incorporating the fuzzy scheduled based FTC it becomes more efficient. The system will be thereafter able to detect the faults, isolate it and also able to accommodate the faults in the sensors and actuators of the Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) process while the conventional MPC does not have the ability to perform it.

화학 공정에서의 이상 진단 시스템 개발 및 응용에 대한 연구는 지난 5년간 많은 발전이 이루어졌다. 화학 공정의 본질적인 특성으로 대형 시스템, 비선형 특성, 모델링 자체의 어려움, 공정 변수의 large dead time 및 복잡한 인과 관계등을 들수 있으며, 이러한 어려움에도 불구하고 적절한 이상 진단 시스템의 중요성을 인식하여, 초기에는 주로 rule-based approach가 도입되어 현장에서의 조업에 많은 도움을 주었었다. 그러나 개발 기간의 단축화, 개발 과정의 표준화 뿐 아니라 개발된 시스템 자체의 일관성 등을 위하여 체계적인 접근 방법이 필요하게 되었으며, 그중 지식 베이스 합성 문제는 그 동안 활발하게 연구되어 오고 있는 분야이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기호화된 정성적인 정보를 얻기위한 기존의 실험 방법의 한계를 극복하고자 동적 모사를 이용하여 정량적인 정보로부터 정성적인 정보를 생성시키는 방법론에 대해 연구하였다. CSTR(Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor)에서 나타날수 있는 이상의 종류에 대한 동적 모사를 수행하여 이상 진단 시스템을 위한 지식이 생성되는 과정을 보였다.

Candida cylindracea lipase was immobilized by adsorption on acid washed glass beads. It was observed that protein loading of the support depends on the size of the particle, with smaller particle containing higher amount of protein per unit weight. Initial reaction rate linearly varied up to enzyme concentration of 17.25 U/mL. Amount of free fatty acids produced was linearly proportional up to the enzyme loading of 1650 $\mu$g/g of bead. Achievement of chemical equilibrium took longer time in the case of less protein loading. Degree of hydrolysis was found to decrease in second and third consecutive batch operations on repeated use of immobilized lipase.

The optimum conditions and rates of absorption of isobutylene in aqueous para-toluene sulfonic acid(PTSA) were studied experimentally in a stirred reactor. The effects of acid concentration(30-70 wt%), acid loading (0.3-5), mixing intensity(400-1000 rpm), and temperature ($20-80^{\circ}C$) on the absorption conditions were examined. The absorption rate of isobutylene was first order in isobutylene and variable order in PTSA concentrations. The apparent energy of activation was found to be 13 Kcal/mole.

Mono-, diacylglycerol were synthesized by glycerolysis of bran oil and glycerol using IM60 (an immobilized lipase) in a stirred batch reactor for 72 hours. After glycerolysis, the composition TAG, DAG, MAG in product was 41.7%, 44.7%, and 11.1%, respectively. Glycerol was separated, then this mixture product was undergone fractionation for winterization followed. The fractionation was performed using hexane and acetone solvent to reduce palmitic acid at the low temperature for overnight individually. Temperature was set -40$^{\circ}C$, -14$^{\circ}C$, -8$^{\circ}C$ and 0$^{\circ}C$, respectively. By considering results from this experiments, fractionation with hexane at -8$^{\circ}C$ was most efficient regarding to yield without crystallization.

A new method for the design of predictive controllers for SISO systems is presented. The proposed technique allows uncertainties and constraints to be concluded in the design of the control law. The goal is to design, at each sample instant, a predictive feedback control law that minimizes a performance measure and guarantees of constraints are satisfied for a set of models that describes the system to be controlled. The predictive controller consists of a finite horizon parametric-optimization problem with an additional constraint over the manipulated variable behavior. This is an end-constraint based approach that ensures the exponential stability of the closed-loop system. The inclusion of this additional constraint, in the on-line optimization algorithm, enables robust stability properties to be demonstrated for the closed-loop system. This is the case even though constraints and disturbances are present. Finally, simulation results are presented using a nonlinear continuous stirred tank reactor model.

In this study, it was observed that hydrogen Productivity varied with stirrer speed, bead radius, input glucose concentration and dilution rate in a continuous stirred tank reactor in which immobilized R. rubrum KS-301 was used as a hydrogen-producing bacterium The mass transfer resistance due to cell immobilization was also studied. In order to estimate an effectiveness factor, Des of glucose was first obtained, which was subsequently represented by the correlation equation between Dos and Xb, As a result external mass transfer resistance could be neglected for stirrer speeds greater than 400rpn With bead radius increasing, the hydrogen productivity and internal effectiveness factor decreased. With input 91ucose concentration increasing, the hydrogen productivity and interval and external effectiveness factor increased. Although an Internal effectiveness factor was not affected, hydrogen productivity Increased with dilution rate increasing. An overall effectiveness factor remained nearly constant for the dilution rates investigate4 but increased with input 91ucose concentration increasing.

In batch cultures of Lactobacillus delbrueckii, cell growth and lactic acid production were affected by two main factors, inhibition by lactic acid and limitation by nutritional components. In order to increase th productivity significantly, a continuous stirred tank reactor with cell recycle was employed. A cell desnity of 145g dry weight/l and a volumetric productivity of 73 g/l$\cdot $h were obtained with an effluent concentration of 85 g/l lactic acid. The productivity achieved by this system was 23-fold higher than those obtained by the corresponding batch cultivations. Once the lactic acid concentration reached the steady steady state, lowering the yeast extract concentration caused the reduction of the lactic acid concentration without affection the biomass concentration. Finally, the formation of D-lactate was investgated. During the various cultures, a small amount of D-lactate always formed, even thought a majority of lactate was L-isomer, It was supposed that the relative amount of the D-lactate was affected by glucose limitation, and there seems to exist a certain relationship between the concentration of D-lactate and acetate.

It is a challenging task to apply large detailed chemical mechanisms of fuel oxidation in simulation of complex combustion phenomena. There exist a few systematic methodologies to reduce detailed chemical mechanisms to smaller sizes involving less computational load. This research work concerns generation of a skeletal chemical mechanism by a directed relation graph with specified accuracy requirement. Two sequential stages for mechanism reduction are followed in a perfectly stirred reactor(PSR) for high temperature chemistry and to consider the autoignition delay time for low and high temperature chemistry. Reduction was performed for the detailed chemical mechanism of n-heptane consisting of 561 species and 2539 elementary reaction steps. Validation results show acceptable agreement for the autoignition delay time and the PSR calculation in wide parametric ranges of pressure, temperature and equivalence ratio.

Extinguishing limits of laminar ethylene/oxygen flames in both normal and inverse co-flow jet burner have been determined experimentally and computationally. An inert gas($N_2$, Ar, $CO_2$) was added into the oxidizer to find the critical concentration and the effectiveness of the agents on flame extinction. The experimental results showed that the physical aspect of inert gases was main mechanism for flame blow-out as same as cup burner test, but the flow effect should be considered to determine the extinction concentration. The numerical prediction was performed with modified WSR model and the result was in good agreement with the measurements. The experimental and numerical methods could be used for the assessment of various flame suppression agents such as minimum extinguishing concentration.
