RESEARCH ACTIVITIES:
Scientific research areas of Laboratory for Biochemical Eng., Industrial Microbiology and Malting & Brewing Technology:
- microorganisms cultivation, separation and purification of broth components from microbial
biomass (beta - glucan from yeast and algae E. gracilis ; 5’ - ribonucleotides from yeast)
- development of horizontal rotating tubular bioreactor (HRTB) and its application for
different bioprocesses (e.g. simultaneous nitrification and denitrification and removal of
heavy metals)
- development of integrated bioprocess models and scale-up procedure of HRTB
- development of hybrid integrated bioprocesses and sustainability of organic solvents
production
- development and application of integrated bioprocesses in production of lactic acid
