Abstract

Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) has been produced utilizing a range of techniques, which include continuous culture techniques employing common bioprocesses like bioreactors, as well as batch and fed-batch growth techniques. The final application of BNC dictates the manufacturing strategy since the procedure directly affects the supramolecular structure and mechanical and physical characteristics of BNC. Techniques for the production of bacterial nanocellulose are described in this chapter.


Keywords: Agitated fermentation, Bacterial nanocellulose, Batch culture, Continuous culture, Fed-batch culture, Industrial-scale production, Static fermentation.
