Application of biofilm bioreactors in white biotechnology.

摘要: The production of valuable compounds in industrial biotechnology is commonly done by cultivation suspended cells or use (immobilized) enzymes rather than using microorganisms an immobilized state. Within the field wastewater as well odor treatment application a proven technique. are entrapped matrix extracellular polymeric produced themselves. surface-associated agglomerate encapsulated termed biofilm. In comparison to common immobilization techniques, toxic effects used for cell entrapment may be neglected. Although economic impact biofilm processes negligible, many prospective approaches were examined laboratory and on pilot scale. This review gives overview reactors applied compounds. Moreover, characteristics utilized materials discussed with respect support surface-attached microbial growth.
