Abstract: | The operational characterization of a fluidized-bed bioreactor for ethanol fermentation using Ca-alginate immobilized yeast
cells is described. An additional air stream is supplied to the fermenter to ensure and maintain satisfactory fluidization
behavior of beads and to avoid slug formation. The influence of physical properties such as bead density and liquid density
on the fluidization quality and stability are discussed. |
