Abstract
A natural zeolite, easily vitrified and blown at 1300 °C with a high porosity and diam. of 5–100 μm, was used to immobilize Saccharomyces cerevisiae at 3.6 × 108 cells ml−1 carrier. When the abilities of natural zeolite carrier were compared with glass beads, the capacity for immobilization and alcohol fermentation activity were, respectively, 2′-fold higher and 1.2-fold higher than that of glass beads. Continuous alcohol fermentation was stable for over 21 d without breakage of the carrier.
