The Study and Optimization Of Production/Fermentation Processes In Biofuel Production

The production process involved in the creation of biofuels consists of a number of operations and steps that require a meticulous understanding of the parameters and metrics. The production techniques again differ depending on the pre-treatment systems, source material, the methods used for extraction, types of nutrients used, cell cultures employed, time undertaken and temperature. Due to the strategic and crucial role that bioethanol holds in supporting the energy demands of the future, it becomes important to run such processes to a highly optimized extent. One of the frontiers of leading such optimized designs is by studying the data from the production processes, formulating design experiments from said data and correlating the results with the parameters using analytical tools. While the case examples analyzed relate to bioethanol mostly, an additional analysis has been performed for data on biodiesel. Coupled with confirmatory methods such as Principal Component Analysis, researchers can help narrow down the extent or degree to which the parameters affect the final outcome and even configure inputs that may not play a definitive role in greater outputs. The project first tackles through some conventional case studies involving biofuel production using an FIS(Fuzzy Interface System) and provides certain insights into the ways in which fuel yields can be enhanced depending on the particular cases. For the purpose of analysis, tools such as MATLAB, Python and WEKA have been employed. Python and WEKA have been used extensively in building principal component analysis reviews for the purpose of this project while MATLAB has been used for building the FIS models.
