Feedback stabilization for a chemostat with delayed output by Gonzalo Robledo

“…We apply basic tools of control theory toa chemostat model that describes the growth of onespecies of microorganisms that consume a limiting substrate. Under theassumption that available measurements of the model have fixed delay$\tau>0$, we design a family of feedback control laws with the objective of stabilizing the limiting substrate concentration in a fixedlevel. …”
