· CRC Crit. Rev. Biotechnol.; (United States)
A review of real-time digital computer applications to fermentation processes is presented. The state of instrumentation and the principles of operation are briefly examined with a special emphasis on the on-line capabilites. Also reviewed are the recent developments in bioreactor state/parameter estimation with the utilization of various measurements, macroscopic material-energy balances, and the principles of basic biochemistry. The use of these estimates toward control or modeling purposes is discussed. Finally, the advances in the application of modern computer control and optimization techniques to fermentation processes are presented. 515 references.
