Abstract
Culture systems involving the use of one or two fermenters in series, with cell recycle employing hollow fiber filter modules to achieve hig h cell densities, were developed. Dilution rates of about 0.6 h(-1) an d ethanol productivity values of about 25 g/l h(-1), with residual glu cose at 0.9 g/l, could be achieved using the system employing one ferm enter.
