Abstract

During the past few years there has been greater demand for well controlled and automated laboratory fermentors in research and scale-up studies on fermentation processes in our country. The development of such a syste~ w~tb indigenous components was undertaken at the Central Food Technological Research Institute to avoid the import of its technology at the cost of considerable. foreign exchange. A proto type laboratory ermentor of 10 and 12 litres capacity having temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, antifoam, continuous culture and magnetically coupled agitation control systems has been successfully developed. The system has facilIties for computer data logging and the control parameters are digitalised.
