Abstract : This work presents the development of a Graphical User Interface for Bioprocess parameters monitoring such as temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen for a Fermentation process using LabVIEW. Monitoring bioprocesses is highly essential because low time intervals do not cause many variations in the values of the bioprocess. Bioprocesses play a vital role in the field of biotechnology and are widely preferred in many industrial sectors. Control schemes are being implemented to enhance productivity and product outcome without compromising process efficiency. It becomes crucial to utilize a real-time process analysis system to result in a high-quality yield for any bioprocess. Insight on the bio-parameters affecting the formation of essential biomolecules and nutrient concentration, along with a monitoring and measurements system is of high demand. The application presented in this study illustrates the usefulness of an automated monitoring system developed using LabVIEW. This study aims to demonstrate the possibility to monitor key variables in bioethanol fermentation for parameters such as temperature, pH and, dissolved oxygen. This project also illustrates the usefulness of an automated monitoring system through a graphical programming environment.
