Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Surveys the state-of-the-art in industrial fermentation monitoring and control. The main aim of the report is to encourage industry to take up methodologies suggested by research. It draws its conclusions from a one-year study into issues such as: improving data analysis procedures and monitoring techniques; applying estimation methods to enhance on-line information; easing the task of establishing effective closed-loop control systems; utilizing artificial intelligence techniques to improve process fault detection and diagnosis and provide general operator assistance; using optimization approaches where possible to enhance bioprocess profitability from development laboratory scale to large-scale production.
