This paper aims to develop a simple but efficient control technique based on a linear algebra approach for tracking optimal profiles of a nonlinear multivariable fed-batch bioprocess. The methodology proposed allows, knowing the desired states, to find the values for the control actions by solving a system of linear equations. Its main advantage is that the condition for the tracking error tends to zero. The efficiency of the proposed controller is tested through several simulations. The optimal controller parameters are selected through Montecarlo Randomized Algorithm in order to minimize a cost index.
