A Kinetic model for submerged citric acid production by Aspergillus versicolor using oil palm empty fruit bunch. GSC Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 17(1), 033-040.2581-3250https://doi.org/10.30574/gscbps.2021.17.1.0301http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/1978GSC Biological and Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021, 17(01), 033–040.The fermentation kinetics of citric acid by Aspergillus versicolor was studied in a submerged batch system. The logistic equation for growth, the Luedeking–Piret equation for citric acid production and modified Luedeking–Piret-like equation for glucose consumption was proposed for this study. The model appeared to provide a reasonable description for each parameter during the growth phase. The production of citric acid was growth-associated.enKinetic modelCitric acidAspergillus versicolorLuedeking–Piret equationOil palm empty fruit bunchSTEMUniversity of Port HarcourtArticle
