Abstract This work proposes a dynamic modeling procedure applied to biomethane production from microalgae residual co-digestion. A two-stage anaerobic digestion representation is selected, considering acidogenesis and methanogenesis as main reaction pathways. Based on the experimental database generated in the University of Mons Laboratories, several candidate models, assuming the presence or absence of biomass dynamics, are suggested, and parametric structural and local identifiability studies are performed. An original parameter estimation procedure is applied to a data-set partition used for model direct validation. The remaining experiment data are dedicated to cross-validation. The results point out how these dynamic models may serve as advanced monitoring software tools such as digital twins, even in the presence of incomplete process data.
