In this paper, we study the stabilization problem for a food extrusion process in the isothermal case. The model expresses the mass conservation in the extruder chamber and consists of a hyperbolic Partial Differential Equation (PDE) and a nonlinear Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) whose dynamics describes the evolution of a moving interface. By using a Lyapunov approach, we obtain the exponential stabilization for the closed-loop system under natural feedback controls through indirect measurements.
