Continuous bioprocessing using cell retention allows the achievement of high space-time yields for slow-growing organisms such as halophiles. However, the lack of efficient methods for monitoring and control limits the application of biotechnological processes in the industry. The aim of this study was to implement a control and online monitoring strategy for biomass in continuous cultures. For the first time, a feedforward cultivation strategy in a membrane-based cell retention system allowed to control the biomass concentration of the extreme halophilic  Haloferax mediterranei  at defined levels. Moreover, soft sensor-based biomass estimation allowed reliable monitoring of biomass online. Application of the combined monitoring and control strategy using industrial process water containing formate, phenol, aniline and 4,4′-methylenedianiline could for the first time demonstrate high throughput degradation in this extremophilic bioremediation process, obtaining degradation efficiencies of up to 100%. This process demonstrates the usefulness of continuous halophilic cultures in a circular economy application.
