| Abstract: | The possibilities of intensifying yeast growth during flow cultivation via an increase in the rate of medium flow and the concentration of carbon-containing substrate are considered. It is found that stabilization of optimum specific substrate loads provides maximum economic coefficient of the process. Stabilization of optimum specific loads of carbon-containing substrates during a three-stage flow cultivation of yeasts in a medium with n-alkanes allowed the throughput of a battery of fermenters to be elevated 1.84-fold. Alternation of flow chemostatic and turbidostatic yeast cultures was accompanied by a fivefold increase in the maximum specific growth rate. |
