The objective of this article is to propose an algorithm for the on-line estimation of the specific growth rate in a batch or a fed-batch fermentation process. The algorithm shows the practical procedure for the estimation method utilizing the macroscopic balance and the extended Kalman filter. A number of studies of the on line estimation have been presented. However, there are few studies discussing about the selection of the observed variables and for the tuning of some parameters of the extended Kalman filter, such as covariance matrix and initial values of the state.The beginning of this article is devoted to explain the selection of the observed variable. This information is very important in terms of the practical know-how for using technique. It is discovered that the condition number is a practically useful and valid criterion for number is a practically useful and valid criterion for choosing the variable to be observed.Next, when the extended Kalman filter in applied to the online estimation of the specific growth rate, which is directly unmeasurable, criteria for judging the validity of the estimated value from the observed data are proposed. Based on the proposed criterial, the system equation of the specific growth rate is selected and initial value of the state variable and covariance matrix of the system noises are adjusted. From many experiments, it is certified that the specific growth rate in the batch or fed -batch fermentation can be estimated accurately by means of the algorithm proposed here. In these experiments, that is, when the cell concentration is measured directly, the extended Kalman filter using the convariance matrix with a constant element can estimate more accurately values of the specific growth rate than the adaptive extended Kalman filter does.
