Development of a fuzzy controller for adaptive control of the adsorption process

Abstract

In this paper presents the development of a fuzzy controller for adaptive control of the parameters of the activated carbon adsorption process. The main objective of the developed control system is to increase the efficiency of the control of the technological process of adsorption by using intelligent technologies. It should be noted that the methodological basis for the design of fuzzy controllers is the concept of fuzzy logic. Also, for the development of fuzzy controllers for an adaptive control system, a model of the absorption process in the adsorber is constructed, taking into account multiple relationships between the parameters of the technological process. The conceptual model of the control object was developed taking into account the inherent internal relationships between the parameters of the technological regime and external disturbing factors. That is, fuzzy adaptive control allows you to adapt to changes in the technological parameters of the adsorption process by changing the control algorithm of the technological process. The expediency of using for adaptive control of technological parameters of the adsorption process by using fuzzy controllers is substantiated. The development of an adaptive control system based on fuzzy controllers was carried out using MatLab software, where a control model of the adsorption technological process was built, and the results were obtained and analyzed. Thus, fuzzy controllers evaluate critical situations and also regulate the parameters of the adsorption process based on logical rules.
