Abstract
The object of this project was to develop an automation control system application for a miniaturised bioreactor operation based on Arduino technology. The miniaturised bioreactor is designed in a multi parallel setup to produce biogas through anaerobic digestion. The research is conducted to develop a suitable Arduino control application that can sufficiently control, monitor, and visualise process parameters while being less expensive than the currently known control systems for bioreactors. The first part of the project consisted of analysing the setup of the miniaturised bioreactor system and identifying relevant process parameters that could be controlled, monitored, and visualised. The second part of the project was to acquire the necessary Arduino parts to realise the physical aspect of the control system. The Arduino parts were chosen by specifying whether the parts were inputs or outputs and what function the Arduino parts should full fill within the control system. The third part of the report was to translate the Arduino parts into a written code using the Integrated Design Environment (IDE) and the C/C++ language of Arduino. This proved to be quite difficult because of the need to convert each individual code into one code that could achieve full control of all the necessary Arduino parts. The fourth part of the project was to program the graphical user interface for the control unit to visualise and monitor the relevant process parameters. The last part of the p
