Design and application of state observers for exothermic fed-batch reactors with uncertain kinetics and heat transfer

Monitoring the limiting reactant concentration is a key question to maximize the productivity and to guarantee the safety of exothermic fed-batch processes. However in most applications, the concentration cannot be measured in real-time since suitable devices do not exist or are too expensive; the c...
