The minimum-sized ideal reactor for continuous alcohol fermentation using immobilized microorganism
Journal Article

· Biotechnol. Bioeng.; (United States)
This article suggests various factors (e.g., alcoholproducing activity of the strain; alcohol toxicity; liquid backmixing) affecting the reduction of the fermentor size in alcohol fermentation using immobilized cells. Finds that the proper degree of liquid backmixing giving the minimum-sized fermentor depends on the magnitude of sugar concentration in feed. Uses a mathematical model which will serve for designing an optimal bioreactor.
