What’s the process, why does happen, and what’s the difference between it happening “naturally” vs in a fermenter?
In: Biology
Fermentation is the breakdown of sugars into carbon dioxide and alcohol.
What happens in our bodies is a type of this breakdown. But we do it using oxygen.
Microbial fermentation used for alcohol production is done in a oxygen free environment.
This is how they produce energy.
Same process occurs in both. It’s just that artificial is made cleaner so that they can extract alcohol better.
