Abstract

The information about certain safety or quality parameters during a batch process is valuable for a variety of reasons. In case a direct measurement is too expensive, too slow or nonexisting, a state estimator estimating the desired quantities based on a model and various other measurements may be a good alternative. The most prominent method is calorimetry, where the heat of reaction is measured. This entry gives an overview of different alternatives that support a safe and successful batch operation.
