Fig. 5From: Newly designed multi-stacked circular tray solid-state bioreactor: analysis of a distributed parameter gas balance during solid-state fermentation with influence of variable initial moisture content arrangementsa Profiles of RQ in multi-stacked tray SSB systems with the fungi A. awamori [AA] and A. oryzae [AO] with different initial moisture content arrangements. The black straight line represents RQ = 1. b Respiratory quotient (RQ) during SSF of A. awamori (square) and A. oryzae (filled square) on wheat bran using four tray SSBs with different initial moisture content arrangement. The red dash line represents RQ = 1. The results are shown as mean ± standard deviation, and number of replications is three (n = 3)Back to article page
