Funded Activity Summary

Efficient Operation of Bioreactors using Nonlinear Dynamical Systems Theory. Current methods of determining optimal operating conditions in bioreactors have recently been shown to be inefficient, resulting in serious omissions of crucial parameter regions. We will use mathematical techniques from dynamical systems theory to establish a general framework by which bioreactor systems can be efficiently and systematically investigated to improve reactor performance. By communicating these results at relevant fora, we will increase the awareness within the Australian and international engineering communities of the advantages of modern mathematical techniques. Although this proposal focuses on bioreactors, the techniques can be easily adapted to improve the performances of other chemical processes.
