Abstract

A fermenter is a complex system consisting of metabolically active cells suspended in a medium which is often aerated. Since the behaviour of such systems is not determined by the initial conditions fermentations must be subject to closed loop control. Closed loop control can be applied using either on-line or off-line methods.
