Research ArticleOpen accessMaximizing Fungal Growth in State-of-the-Art Tray Solid-State Fermenter: Aeration Strategies Optimized for Enhanced PerformanceMusaalbakri Abdul Manan, Colin WebbThis study introduced a tray fermenter, featuring eight layers of squared perforated trays, specifically designed for solid-state fermentation applications. It is named the multi-layer squared tray solid-state fermenter. The fermenter employs two aeration strategies with varying air flow rates to optimize fungal growth. Firstly, sterilized moistened air at 8 L/min flows from the bottom through the perforated trays. Secondly, a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 9 Apr 2024 · 6,453 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessModeling of Oxygen Transfer Correlations for Stirred Tank Bioreactor Agitated with Atypical Helical Ribbon ImpellerMohd Shamzi Mohamed, Rosfarizan Mohamad, Ramakrishnan Nagasundara Ramanan et al.Problem Statement: Mixing filamentous fungi entails delicate balance between promoting high volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa) while keeping low hydrodynamic stresses in the microenvironment of cultures. This study examined the oxygen transfer capability of a prototype low shear helical impeller as a potential replacement for the standard Rushton turbine. Approach: The dependence of kLa upon specific power uptake, superficial gas … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 9,167 accessesView PDF Cite
