F, fed-batch
fresh sterile medium is added continuously in the vessel and used up media with bacterial culture is removed continuously at the same rate
Continuous culture technique
This process is widely used for yeast separation during alcohol production and in waste-water treatment.
Sedimentation
This process allows small particles or cells to separate from liquid
Centrifugation
is useful for Gram-positive organisms but addition of EDTA improves the effectiveness of lysozyme of Gram-negative bacteria.
