| Abstract: | For several years now, we can notice efforts in increasing the efficiency of microbial processes by means of more intensive scientific investigation of such processes. Essential prerequisites to it are improved possibilities for process monitoring (available sensors) as well as facilities for realtime processing of process information. In this paper a microcomputer system is represented, which has been constructed on the base of computing needs for fermentation. The computing needs for fermentation experiments are outlined and the structure of the microcomputer is described. As an example it is illustrated what tasks can be solved by this microcomputer in coupled operation with a laboratory fermentor. |
