SYSTEMS OF SOLID-PHASE FERMENTATION AND A METHOD OF PRODUCTION OF HIGH-QUALITY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE AND LIPIDES

摘要

The present invention describes a bio-based process to produce high quality protein concentrate (HQPC) and lipids by converting plant derived materials into bioavailable protein and lipids via solid state fermentation (SSF) and hybrid-SSF, including the use of such HQPC and lipids so produced as nutrients, including use as a fish meal replacement in aquaculture diets. Also disclosed is a SSF reactor and method of using the reactor.
