Zusammenfassung:A data acquisition/control microcomputer system was interfaced to a commercial HPLC data transmission module. Control of substrate (ethanol) levels for four 7.5 L fermenters containing 100 g/L wet weight of the yeast Candida norvegensis was accomplished by employing intermittent, automated HPLC monitoring and a BASIC-encoded proportional integral policy for controlling substrate feed rates. Ethanol levels were maintained at 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00% w/v.
