The main goal of this work is presents an alternative design of a class of nonlinear controller for tracking trajectories in a class of continuous bioreactor. It is assumed that the reaction rate of the controlled variable is unknown, therefore an uncertainty estimator is proposed to infer this important term, and the observer is coupled with a class of nonlinear feedback. The considered controller contains a class of continuous sigmoid feedback in order to provide smooth closed-loop response of the considered bioreactor. A kinetic model of a sulfate-reducing system is experimentally corroborated and is employed as a benchmark for further modeling and simulation of the continuous operation. A linear PI controller, a class of sliding-mode controller and the proposed one are compared and it is show that the proposed controller yields the best performance. The closed-loop behavior of the process is analyzed via numerical experiments.
