Parameter and state estimation of backers yeast cultivation with a gas sensor array and unscented Kalman filter

摘要

Real‐time information about the concentrations of substrates and biomass is the key to accurate monitoring and control of bioprocess. However, on‐line measurement of these variables is a challenging task and new measurement systems are still required. An alternative are software sensors, which can be used for state and parameter estimation in bioprocesses. The software sensors predict the state of the process by using mathematical models as well as data from measured variables. The Kalman filter is a type of such sensors.
