Fermentation materials typically include a fermentable substrate such as sugar, grains, or fruit juice, yeast or other microorganisms for fermentation, water, and sometimes additional ingredients like hops in beer production or fruit in winemaking. These materials provide the necessary components for fermentation to occur, resulting in the production of alcohol, carbon dioxide, and other byproducts.
During fermentation materials (reactants) are transformed in other substances (products) - a chemical reaction.
Rheology is the study of flow behavior of materials, such as viscosity and elasticity. In the context of fermentation fluids, rheology helps to understand how the fluids move and deform during the fermentation process, which can impact the efficiency of mass transfer, mixing, and the overall fermentation performance. Monitoring the rheological properties of fermentation fluids can provide insights into the fermentation process and help optimize the production of desired products.
Aerobic fermentation and anaerobic fermentation.
Lactic Acid Fermentation and Alcoholic Fermentation.
The process of fermentation releases carbon dioxide, so we can not stay in fermentation forever.
The raw materials for alcohol fermentation are generally sugar (such as glucose or sucrose) and yeast. Yeast metabolizes the sugar through the process of fermentation, converting it into alcohol and carbon dioxide. Water is also required for the fermentation process.

The raw materials required for lactic acid fermentation are simple sugars, such as glucose or lactose, and lactic acid bacteria. These bacteria convert the sugars into lactic acid through a process called fermentation.
Alchoholic fermentation and Lactic Acid fermentation
in the biostil fermentation the fermentation and distillation are coupled.
There are different kinds of fermentation, and fermentation can be aerobic, or anaerobic.
Fermentation impacts the environment by contributing to nutrient cycling and enhancing soil health through the production of organic matter. It also plays a role in carbon dioxide emissions, which can affect climate change if not managed properly. Additionally, fermentation processes in agriculture can reduce waste by converting organic materials into valuable products like biofuels and animal feed. Overall, fermentation fosters biodiversity and can improve ecosystem resilience.

Lactic Acid Fermentation and Alcoholic Fermentation.
Two types of fermentation are alcohol fermentation and lactic-acid fermentation. Alcohol fermentation is the process in which 2 pyruvate molecules ,created by the means of glycosis, is further broken down into 2 ethanol molecules through alcohol fermentation. Lactic-acid fermentation is when the pyruvate molecules formed from glycosis is reduced to 2 lactate molecules.
In ruminants, fibrous feed components, particularly cellulose and hemicellulose found in plant cell walls, are most effectively digested by fermentation in the rumen. This fermentation process is facilitated by a diverse population of microorganisms, including bacteria, protozoa, and fungi, which break down these complex carbohydrates into simpler compounds. In the cecum of non-ruminant herbivores, such as horses, similar fermentation occurs, allowing for the digestion of fibrous materials. Overall, fiber is the key component that benefits from fermentation in both the rumen and cecum.
