Fermentation Processes Laboratory
- Applied microbiology/microorganisms usage in industry including wastewater treatments - involvement of microbial cells ( bacteria, fungi, and microalgae) in bioleaching , in treating lignocellulosic materials, in synthesis and accumulation of lipids in microalgae ( lipidic materials in biodiesel production, enzymatic or non-enzymatic) 3 SESSIONSt
- Microbial growth and relevant growth models - biochemical energy production ( aerobic/ anaerobic respiration, fermentation), microbial cells and metabolic pathways as reactions catalyzed by enzymes ( in presence / absence of coenzymes) 2 SESSIONS
- proteins and evaluation of the enzymatic reactions- enzyme activity2 SESSIONS
evaluation of the enzymatic reactionseffect of environmental factors( enzyme stability)2 SESSIONS
bioreactors in biochemical reactions
mode of fermentation in batch, continuous (chemostat), fed-batch bioreactors: packed-bed reactor (cell-immobilization), pneumatically driven reactor (airlift (ALR), bubble column) sequencing batch reactor with use of ALR , microbial fuel cell, microbial electrolysis cell 3 SES
