There are several types of fermentation, but the most common include alcoholic fermentation, lactic acid fermentation, and acetic acid fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in yeast and some types of bacteria, producing ethanol and carbon dioxide. Lactic acid fermentation happens in certain bacteria and animal cells, converting sugars into lactic acid. Acetic acid fermentation, primarily carried out by acetic acid bacteria, converts ethanol into acetic acid.

How many forms of fermentation are there?

There are primarily two main forms of fermentation: alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation, performed by yeast, converts sugars into ethanol and carbon dioxide, commonly used in brewing and winemaking. Lactic acid fermentation, carried out by certain bacteria, converts sugars into lactic acid and is used in the production of yogurt and fermented vegetables. Other less common forms, like acetic acid fermentation and mixed acid fermentation, also exist but are variations of these primary types.
