Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a system for fermenta ⁇ tion of initially sterile liquids by microorganisms in pure culture under conditons avoiding all infection of other microorganisms, the fermentation being either conti- nuous or not, the method using one or several soft contai ⁇ ners arranged in series or parallel to each other and being initially sterile or completely sterilized, as well as cultivation of microorganisms.
  • the invention also relates to refermentation of liquids not being recontaminated by undesired microorganisms as well as cultivation of microorganisms.

  • the whole system is sterilized before it is used and, if no accident occurs, the sterilization does not need to be redone during the lifetime of the system under the con ⁇ dition that the liquid to be fermented as well as the air or the oxygen are perfectly sterilized by methods known in the art before they are admitted into the system, that the culture is rigorously pure and asepticly admitted into the system, that the withdrawal of fermented and stored liqu ⁇ ids is aseptically performed and that the content in the soft container is kept in circulation, this being achieved by pumping or by a mixer, and also that the evacuation of the fermentation gases does not allow any microorganism others than the ones being used to enter the liquid, this being the object of a controlled fermentation of a selec ⁇ ted microorganism.
  • the soft container at the start being empty and steri ⁇ le is aseptically fed with sterile liquid and with pure culture and oxygen or sterile air according to the requi ⁇ rements considering the type of microorganism and thus the fermentation being used, the sterile liquid having a low content of gas.
  • the liquid is mixed e.g. by pumping in a closed circuit. It is kept at the desired temperature and is completely protected against parasitic fermentation, the possibly occuring fermentation gases being evacuated from the upper part of the soft container to the exteriors or to a recuperating device passing through an apparatus eliminating all hazards of reinfection of the content in the soft container.
  • the microorganisms are kept dispersed in the soft con ⁇ tainer, the content of which is kept in circulation, the deposits with a significant thickness on the containers soft diaphragm being regularly separated due to the exte ⁇ rior action on these soft diaphragms by localized forces causing deformations of the diaphragm; these localized forces are provided mechanically or hydraulically by loca ⁇ lized beams using the liquid in which the soft container is immersed.
  • the circulating pump guaranteeing the circulation of the liquid during the process of fermentation is of a type with large capacity and low pressure or of a type with low capacity and high pressure, if the circulation of the con ⁇ tent in the soft container is maintained indirectly by a hydroejector, but this pump is preferably an aseptic pump of a new type to be described below (figure 2) or an ana ⁇ logous pump.

  • Tight valves with very large diameters are not necessa ⁇ ry when, in case of a repair, it is important to isolate the very large pump of the soft containers , because, in case the pressure In the liquid piping does not surmount 0,5 kg/cm2, it is sufficient to flatten two soft sections of the piping for transmission of the liquid, one down ⁇ stream and the other upstream of the circulating pump, to be able to isolate the latter one. It then remains in a proper way to resterilize the part of the device which has been Infected and to reinstall the circulating pump for operation guaranteeing the total and permanent aseptic condition due to the antiseptic liquid.

  • the pump includes a steam inlet, an outlet for condensate and a device for feeding in sterile air or inert gas.

Abstract

La fermentation ou la culture de micro-organismes a lieu dans des réceptacles souples qui sont stériles au commencement de la fermentation. Le réceptacle souple contient le milieu qui doit fermenter. Le réceptacle, qui possède une enveloppe flexible, est immergé dans un liquide possédant les qualités désirées, par exemple, par rapport à la densité de liquide. Le milieu dans le réceptacle peut être maintenu en agitation en exerçant une action depuis l'extérieur de l'enveloppe flexible.
