State Observer Design for Monitoring the Degree of Polymerization in a Series of Melt Polycondensation Reactors
A nonlinear reduced-order state observer is applied to estimate the degree of polymerization in a series of polycondensation reactors. The finishing stage of polyethylene terephthalate synthesis is considered in this work. This process has a special structure of lower block triangular form, which is...
