Abstract:

Air-lift loop fermenters are briefly characterised in the paper. Two-zone mathematical model of mass transfer in air-lift fermenters for various systems of gas and liquid flow models (ideal mixing, plug flow, axial dispersion) is proposed. The example of identification of this model using experimental data^ of oxygen transfer in the liquid phase in an external-loop air-lift fermentor of operating volume 21 dm is quoted. Volumetric oxygen transfer coefficients kia are determined for various aeration rates.
