Anaerobic digestion of swine wastes is an attractive practice in which both pollution control and energy recovery can be achieved. Nowadays, anaerobic digestion becomes a promising process due to its beneficial output including renewable energy production and mitigation of pollutant emissions. However, the high concentration of ammonium in manure and the produced ammonia as a common metabolic e...

Astaxanthin is a main carotenoid pigment. Fed-batch fermentation bioprocesses of astaxanthin in 2.0 M fermentor have been investigated. Moreover, pH shift control was employed in fed-batch fermentation at 2.0 M scale. The results of astaxanthin fermentation showed that the fed-batch fermentation with pH shift strategy was the best among all the experiments, and the maximum astaxanthin concentra...

We demonstrate that live donor Veillonella dispar cells can transfer the conjugative transposon Tn916 to four different Streptococcus spp. recipients in a multispecies oral consortium growing as a biofilm in a constant depth film fermentor. Additionally, we demonstrate that purified V. dispar DNA can transform Streptococcus mitis to tetracycline resistance in this experimental system. These dat...

Kebijakan dan manajemen waktu memegang peran yang penting dalam kesuksesan suatu proses produksi. Penjadwalan merupakan salah satu solusi agar produksi dapat berjalan baik lancar. Pada industri yoghurt tangki seeding fermentor beroperasi secara batch menghabiskan cukup lama. Proses ini menghambat jika tidak dilakukan tepat. Manajemen dengan diagram PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique)...

Mycobacterium sp. strain BB1 was isolated from a former coal gasification site. It was able to utilize phenanthrene, pyrene, and fluoranthene as sole sources of carbon and energy and to degrade fluorene cometabolically. Exponential growth with solid phenanthrene, pyrene, and fluoranthene was obtained in fermentor cultures. The growth rates were 0.069, 0.056, and 0.040 h-1, respectively. Several...

New antibiotic, isohematinic acid, was found in the culture broth of an actinomycete strain SANK 61681, which was identified as a strain of Actinoplanes philippinesis. Fermentation of isohematinic acid was performed by conventional submerged culture in a 600-liter fermentor. Isolation of isohematinic acid was performed by adsorption of the antibiotic from the culture filtrate on a column of Dia...
