The Kalman filter has been widely used for estimation and tracking of linear systems since its formulation in 1960 due to its simplicity and robustness. In many chemical engineering applications the extended Kalman filter (EKF) is often used to deal with certain classes of nonlinear systems. In spite of that, designing an EKF for highly nonlinear processes is not a trivial task, particularly those involving hig...
The pilot plant under study is designed for determining the kinetics of the heterogeneous non-catalytic reaction of chemical pulping of wood and for teaching system dynamics and batch process control in an appropriate university course. The natura complexity of the system includes time varying dynamics and stepwise behavior and this makes it attractive for highlighting some important features of the real world ...
