Development of multiscale microbial kinetic-transport models for prediction and optimization of biogenic coalbed methane production
DownloadFall 2015
The fundamental objective of this research project is to develop an enzymatic reaction kinetic model for coal bioconversion which, on integration with multiscale transport models, would allow simulation and optimization of field scale biogenic coalbed methane production. Biogenic coalbed methane...

Spring 2024
Modern industries are increasingly embracing complex, large-scale processes with interconnected units for their economic benefits. The increasing scale of industrial processes and the complexity of unit interactions substantially complicate the development of advanced process control systems....

Non-linear reparameterization of complex models with applications to a microalgal heterotrophic fed-batch bioreactor
DownloadSpring 2010
Good process control is often critical for the economic viability of large-scale production of several commercial products. In this work, the production of biodiesel from microalgae is investigated. Successful implementation of a model-based control strategy requires the identification of a model...
