Description
This book is about how computer-based process control systems can be used to improve the understanding of product biosynthesis. The first part of the book covers the fields of indirect parameter estimation and fermentation-specific control algorithms. The second part of the book covers system architecture and process application, process control, on-line liquid sampling, and computer system architecture.
The purpose of this volume is to describe the components, assembly, and implementation of computer-based process control systems. Presented in two sections, it illustrates how such systems have been used to monitor and control industrial fermentation processes as a means to improve our understanding of product biosynthesis. This book covers the fields of indirect parameter estimation and fermentation-specific control algorithms. It also includes chapters which describe system architecture and process application, process control, on-line liquid sampling and computer system architecture. This is an ideal source for anyone involved with biotechnology, bioengineering, microbial technology, chemical engineering, and computer control.
