Abstract:
The periodic change of environment factors in air pressure oscillation solid state fermentation bioreactor was studied. Based this research the effect of the periodic environment stimulations on Penicillium decumbens JUA10 cultured in solid state substrate was researched too. The research results showed that in this bioreactor air temperature and relative humidity had large amplitude periodic change drived by air pressure oscillation. The changes had same frequency with the air pressure Oscillation and had amplitude that increased with the air pressure increased. When the press lower limit and upper limit were 0.0MPa and 0.2MPa respectively, pulsating period was 20 min, contrast to the period gather breath solid state fermentation, the air press pulsating SSF had a 2.29 times total CO2 production increase, 3.2 times enzyme activity increase and 1.04 times biomass increase. The data suggested air press pulsating stimulation not only increased biomass but also the metabolic activity.
