How to Design a Fermenter: Provisions, Features and Vessel! A process in which a chemical product of human utility is produced involving microorganisms is called as fermentation. The vessel in which it is carried out is known as fermenter. An ideal fermenter should provide congenial environmental conditions, which promote the optimum growth of an organism […]

The following points highlight the eight main types of fermentations. The types are:- 1. Batch Fermentation 2. Continuous Fermentation 3. Fed Batch Fermentation 4. Anaerobic Fermentation 5. Aerobic Fermentation 6. Surface Fermentations 7. Submerged Fermentations 8. State Fermentation. Type # 1. Batch Fermentation: A batch fermentation is a closed culture system, because initial and limited […]
Screening of Microorganisms: Primary and Secondary Techniques | Industrial Biotechnology
In this article we will discuss about the primary and secondary screening of microorganisms. The economics of a fermentation process largely depends upon the type of microorganism used. If fermentation process is to yield a product at a cheaper price the chosen microorganism should give the desired product in a predictable and economically adequate quantity. […]
