A discussion Is presented of the application of the Kalman filter to systems where the model Is neither linear nor In closed form. The system studied here Involves the modeling of linear scan voltammetrlc responses, where heterogeneous kinetic parameters are estimated. Results are presented for synthetic data and for reduction of Cr(III) and Pb(II) In perchlorate media. It Is demonstrated, using state estimation, that the Cr(III) reduction follows Volmerlan kinetic law.Recently, it has been recognized that modeling of responses obtained from analytical measurements has a number of important applications. Among these are smoothing, the ability to remove noise efficiently without distorting or biasing the signal, and deconvolution, the ability to accurately separate the effects of two processes whose responses couple with one
