Modelling of batch biopolymer fermentation

This research is about modelling of Cupriavidus necator (C. necator) growth and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) production in batch fermentation and fitting the models to the data using Runge-Kutta 4th Order Method by minimizing the error between experimental data and predicted data using the Simplex Me...
