Principles and Applications of Fermentation Technology

The book covers all

aspects of fermentation technology such as principles, reaction

kinetics, scaling up of processes, and applications.

The 20

chapters written by subject matter experts are divided into two parts:

Principles and Applications. In the first part subjects covered include:

Modelling

and kinetics of fermentation technology Sterilization techniques used

in fermentation processes Design and types of bioreactors used in

fermentation technology Recent advances and future prospect of

fermentation technology The second part subjects covered include:

Lactic

acid and ethanol production using fermentation technology Various

industrial value-added product biosynthesis using fermentation

technology Microbial cyp450 production and its industrial application

Polyunsaturated fatty acid production through solid state fermentation

Application of oleaginous yeast for lignocellulosic biomass based single

cell oil production Utilization of micro-algal biomass for bioethanol

production Poly-lactide production from lactic acid through fermentation

technology Bacterial cellulose and its potential impact on industrial

applications
