Batch Fermentation: Modeling, Monitoring, and Control

Illustrating techniques in model development, signal processing, data reconciliation, process monitoring, quality assurance, intelligent real-time process supervision, and fault detection and diagnosis, Batch Fermentation offers valuable simulation and control strategies for batch fermentation applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. The book provides approaches for determining optimal reference trajectories and operating conditions; estimating final product quality; modifying, adjusting, and enhancing batch process operations; and designing integrated real-time intelligent knowledge-based systems for process monitoring and fault diagnosis.
