| Résumé : | The development and acceptance of model-based monitoring tools in the bioprocess industry is made difficult by the usually large uncertainty associated with the process model. A natural approach to handle this issue is the design of adaptive state observers for the joint estimation of the process state and some of the uncertain model parameters. However, the state extension is often restricted to a few parameters only, for which observability conditions are satisfied with the available measurement information. In this study, this latter issue is circumvented by the combination of two observers: (a) a receding-horizon observer is designed for the joint estimation of the state and uncertain model parameters, and (b) an asymptotic observer, which provides state estimates independently of the kinetic model, is used to provide the missing additional information to the receding-observer, thus avoiding observability loss. This paper derives the properties of this combined state estimation scheme and demonstrates its performance with a realistic simulation case study of animal cell cultures. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
