The volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient, KLa, is one of the most important parameters in the scaleup of aerobic fermentation processes. It is a measure of the gas-liquidoxygen transfer performance of a given fermentor. Because of the involvement of oxygen in the metabolic energy supply, the KLa v
A rapid and internally consistent technique has been developed to measure the volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient, k ~a , i n fermentation systems. The method consists of tracing the dissolved 0 2 concentration of the fermentation broth during a short interruption of the aeration. The O2 concentr
## Abstract Development of a foam breaker which operates on the principle of rapid acceleration of foam through a __nozzle__ has allowed largeβscale aerobic fermentations to be run without addition of antifoam agents. Fermentations have been investigated over a wide range of aeration levels in whic
