TLDR
In this paper, a new approach was developed for the design of nonlinear controllers for pH processes, consisting of defining an alternative equivalent control objective which is linear in the states and using a linear control law in terms of this new control objective.
Abstract
Given the general structure of the nonlinear dynamic model, consisting of material balances and chemical equilibria equations, a new approach has been developed for the design of nonlinear controllers for pH processes. It consists of defining an alternative equivalent control objective which is linear in the states and using a linear control law in terms of this new control objective. Computer simulations evaluate the performance of this control methodology in the presence of disturbances and model uncertainty

A new approach to the identification of pH processes based on the Wiener model

TL;DR: In this paper, a frequency sampling filter model is used to represent the dynamic linear element and a simple least-squares algorithm is applied to simultaneously estimate the parameters of the linear subsystem and the inverse static nonlinearity.

Type-2 fuzzy model based controller design for neutralization processes.

TL;DR: In this study, an inverse controller based on a type-2 fuzzy model control design strategy is introduced and this main controller is embedded within an internal model control structure that improves the closed-loop performance to disturbance rejection as shown through the real-time control of the pH neutralization process.
