Abstract

A fermentation device (10) is described whereby a single fermentation vessel (1) is used to conduct deep bed solid state fermentation of microorganisms to generate useful products. The device incorporates an assembly for agitation (9) of the fermentation substrate which allows injection of fluids into the substrate bed to maintain homogenous culture conditions throughout the substrate regardless of the depth of the substrate bed.
