Abstract
As for any industrial process, models in biological wastewater treatment have an important role in the process design and the determination of optimal operating conditions. The Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) is a process of increasing importance in aerobic bioreactors for the industrial wastewater treatment, in which temporal sequences of phases take place in a single reactor. Indeed, this sequencing process can be considered as a hybrid system. Each phase represents a continuous dynamics, and the changes of phase can be considered as discrete events or switches of continuous systems. Hence the SBR is a single formalism combining continuous and discrete systems simultaneously, well known as hybrid system. This paper proposes a methodology for the time optimal control of the SBR process from the hybrid point of view, by using reach set computation.
