Continuous production of n-butanol and isopropanol by immobilized, growingClostridium butylicum cells
TL;DR: Investigation of the feasibility of an immobilized cell reactor (with growing cells) for continuous production of n-butanol and isopropanol found average productivity of the continuous reactor was found to be approximately 4 times higher than the productivity of a classical batch fermentation.
