Optimization of fed-batch fermentation processes using the Backtracking Search Algorithm

作者：

Highlights：

• Optimizations in winery wastewater and sewage sludge treatment are tackled.

• Recent metaheuristics namely CMAES, BSA and DE are found to give competent results.

• Improved DE metaheuristic, BSA gives best overall performance for all problems.
