Abstract :
Comments on the practical application of the results obtained in the paper "A Nonlinear State Regulator Problem for the Monod Model" appearing elsewhere in this issue[1] are summarized in this correspondence. Real data from an anaerobic digester are presented and a nonlinear estimation problem is formulated. The regulator theory described in the subject paper opens a very interesting and important area for future control applications research.
