The article is essentially a survey of works dealing with effects of modern agrotechnical metods upon the proteins present in malting barley. The higher percentage of proteins bears upon the quality of barley, malt and beer and has also its important economic side. Modern agronomy prefers short-stemmed barley varieties, which unfortunately have the maize growing districts some undesirable properties due to the specific climatic conditions prevailing there. Because of steadily increasing protein content in malting barley the workers of malting industry insist now on the introduction of binding standard regulating the relation between the purchase price...

Chemical engineering as a profession was born from the necessity to utilize in industry efficiently and with minimum delay the results of laboratory research works and experiments. One of its specialized branches is biochemical engineering. Knowledge acquired by biochemical engineering and methods used in this branch are applicable in the whole sphere of fermentation industry. To demonstrate the complexity of problems to be solved by biochemical engineers the author takes as an example aerobic fermentation. Such points as the determination of the delivery head for a turbine agitator. Optimum circulation velocity, duration of circulation, effects of...
