S&b-state ~rm~~~~ti~~ @SF), a process in whi& the substrate is not a free liquid (Aidoo et al., I980), has been widely used to produce numer5us usefui products using m&oarganisms, mainly fungi. The most important advantages associated with SSF as compared with submerged fermentation are improved pmduct rec5very, dueed energy requirements and simplicity of the equipment used (Hesseltine, WC?). The disadvantages of targe scale SSF center on probiems of heat buildup, poor process control atrd lack of welt defined criteria for scaleup (Rathbun and Shufer, t983j. Among varitrus fermenters, such as paeked bed, tray and rotating drum, tray fermenters are most commonly used for solid-state f' ementaFiam

## Abstract An experimental device was constructed to allow nearly simultaneous measurements to be made on temperature and gas composition at different depths in a solid–substrate fermentation bed. The time‐dependent values of temperature, mol % O~2~ and mol % CO~2~ were measured at five positions
The paper deals with a numerical and an experimental analysis of the humidification process of air in a nearly horizontal tube. The numerical analysis is based on a finite-difference solution of the threedimensional momentum, heat and mass transfer differential equations within the tube for the evap
