Abstract:
The paper is dedicated to actual scientific and practical problem
solutions for air treatment in microbial pesticide manufacturing. Experimental results
of air filtration in series-link filters with 5 μm – 1 μm rating polypropylene cartridges
are shown. Obtained microbial contamination level of filtered air 3.4 CFU·m–3 was low
and air quality seemed to be sufficient for fermentation broth aeration in the bioreactor.
The reasons for such results and prospects of filtration system simplification for pilotscale
microbial pesticide manufacturing are discussed.
