Abstract

The Zymomonas mobilis is considered a high levan production, because showed low biomass and high tolerance to ethanol.study was to evaluate the levan sponge by immobilization support recycling.reactor with changes in the design of support fermentat repeated till the production of levan and ethanol dropped to considerably lower level.observed higher ethanol (34.64 g.L cycles.The maximum substrat It was also found that the microorganism remained viable and showed levan and ethanol production until the last recycle day.
