Principal lines to be followed in the development of fermentation products manufacturing methods in the plants of the LIKO group.Peer-reviewed article

J. FORSTHOFFER

The author specifies measures which will be taken in the periods of the 6-th and 7-th  5-years plans to further develop the production of fermentation products in the factories of the LIKO group. There are four principal lines to be followed: microorganisms used at present will be gradually replaced by new kinds better meeting higher requirements put now to fermentation products. Beside traditional raw materials containing sugar new raw materials will be utilized as available and cheap sources of carbon, as e.g. fissile lignocelluloses products, crude oil and its products, especially n-alkanes, ethanol, methanol and methane. Much attention will be paid to a thorough utilization of waste products of industry using microbiologic processes. The final target is to achieve production in closed cycles with as little waste as possible. All factories will be modernized and new fermenting, processing and handling installations will be put into service.
