An associated 20L in situ fermentation and control unit the role of which will be to prepare seed culture for the larger 200L fermenter is desirable. This unit should be a scaled down version of the 200L fermenter (to ensure similar environmental and dynamic conditions as pertain in the larger fermenter) with a similar set of monitors, control units etc. This fermenter should have the capacity to operate independently. This unit should include an aseptic transfer system to the 200L fermenter.
