โœฆ Synopsis

A simple mathematical model for the interaction of mass transport with biochemical reaction in solid state fermentations (SSF) in static tray type bioreactors under isothermal conditions has been developed. The analysis has enabled scientific explanations to a number of practical observations, through the concept of critical substrate bed thickness. The model will bemost useful in the prediction of the concentration gradients as also in efficient design of these bioreactors.

## Abstract We present a mathematical model that describes heat and mass transfer during solidโ€state fermentation (SSF) of __Aspergillus oryzae__ in a wellโ€mixed rotating drum bioreactor (RDB). In addition to the substrate bed and the headspace, the model recognises the bioreactor wall as a subsyst
