Soft-sensors based on Black-box Models for Bioreactors Monitoring and State Estimation

Published: 10 July 2020 Publication History

Abstract

Efficient control of bioprocess is becoming more and more relevant in today's biotechnology industry and environment of changing technologies. Many of important bioprocess variables are not measured on-line. Usually it took 15 min and some of them only after 24 hours (Dry biomass). On-line estimation of unknown bioprocess parameters provide improved process control performance. In this article, three advanced techniques for soft-sensors design were investigated: support vector regression, relevance vector regression and random forest regression model. As direct measurements for estimation were used glucose/lactose feed rates and oxygen uptake rate along with its integrated quantity. Estimation quality of models analyzed in first stage was tested by using data of mechanistic process model. Later models were tested on E. coli BL21 (DE3) pET21-IFN-alfa-5 strain cultivation process measurements. As inputs were used: Time after induction, CPR (Carbon dioxide Production Rate) and Feeding flow along with its integrated values. Outputs of the models were: OD (Optical Density) and acetate quantity. All models provide results close to each other but random forest showed slightly better efficiency.
