  • Patent number: 9441191
    Abstract: A solid-state fermentation method is provided. The method is provided for edible and medicinal microorganisms. A commensurate device is used for processing sterilization, inoculation, cultivation, drying, and collection. Cultivation substrates are filled in cultivation plates and placed on trays of a movable layer rack in a reaction fermenter for fermentation. Inner pipes provide inoculation, fluid nutrient, and air for fermentation of microorganisms. The reaction fermenter is accompanied with a dry circulation unit and a production collection unit for drying and collection. The solid-state fermentation processes are thus effectively integrated without the need of transferring fermented products between stations, which largely reduces contamination rate. Even more, there is no need to purchase automatic production equipments of high mechanical technologies.
