    Abstract

    This work provides the observation and control of biomass concentration in Waste Water Treatment Plants. To achieve this, a PI controller was designed together with an observer to form an observer-based control system. The optimal values of the proportional gain and integral gain were determined to obtain the convergence of the observer in the least amount of time without compromising on the time taken by the response to reach steady state. Encouraging results which shall provide a basis for further and more in-depth research on the system were obtained.
