= Utilise CO2 as their sole or primary carbon source

Microbial Growth Kinetics:
= Closed system whereby all nutrients are present at the start of the process.
= Fresh medium is added as the reaction progresses but no old medium is removed.

= Fresh medium is continuously fed into the fermentation vessel but used medium is removed at the same rate, creating optimum conditions for growth.

What are the four growth phases of a microorganism?
Phase: This initial phase is characterized by cellular activity but not growth. Cells are placed in media which allows them to synthesize proteins and other molecules necessary for replication however they do not actually divide.
Phase: This is the time when the cells are dividing by binary fission and doubling in numbers after each generation time.
Phase: Available nutrients become depleted and waste products start to accumulate. Bacterial cell growth reaches a plateau, or stationary phase, where the number of dividing cells equal the number of dying cells.
Phase: As nutrients become less available and waste products increase, the number of dying cells continues to rise. The number of living cells decreases exponentially and population growth experiences a sharp decline.

The 'Disadvantages of Batch Fermentation' slide (slide 37) seems very examinable. This could easily come up as 'Compare and contrast the different methods of fermentation' e.g. comparing batch and fed-batch to continuous.
Go over and remember a few of the differences, such as:

- Batch fermentation means that the system never achieves a steady state due to the constantly changing conditions of the environment.
- Batch fermentation involves a lot of practical steps and procedures which gives more room for human error and contamination
- Theoretically, the exponential phase in a continuous culture can be extended indefinitely as if you keep providing new material and removing old, used culture material the organism will never run out of nutrients.
