Abstract

The potential of the most recent membrane technology is still unaccounted for in many respects. Combining fermentation with up-to-date membrane technology building a membrane bioreactor allows the adjustment of the cell count on a high level, increasing yield per volume and time. Applied to beer manufacturing, main fermentation times of less than 20 h seem possible, avoiding the disadvantages of already known accelerated fermentation processes operated on a continuous basis. Although module design was adapted and backwash procedure altered to gas-jet, maintaining a sufficient membrane flux over time still poses a major problem. Nevertheless, preliminary results in respect of beer quality look promising.
