More Information
Summary:The subject invention provides for continuous production of advantageous microbes and/or by-products using a system capable of submerged fermentation, solid-state fermentation, and combinations thereof. In particular, the systems utilize cassettes or other similar containers as vessels for holding a solid substrate inoculated with a microorganism. The cassettes are aligned inside a tank, and the tank can optionally be filled with a liquid nutrient medium. The cassettes with substrate and growing microorganisms are removed from the tank for harvesting the microorganism, and a new, sterilized cassette with substrate can be replaced into the tank.
