The ability of yeast to flocculate is important in different separation processes, especially in the beer industry. Because of the regulation purposes, there is a need for online monitoring. With the presented measuring set-up, consisting of a peristaltic pump, a photometer, and a computer, it is possible to determine the onset of flocculation as well as to follow flocculation intensity and the concentration of nonflocculated cells. It was found that for the yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae ZIM 198 the decrease of nonflocculated cells (after flocculation has occurred) during the exponential growth can be described by an exponential equation for the first-order process, whereas the increase of free cells due to dispersion of the flocs during the stationary phase follows the form of the growth curve. It was also demonstrated that the absorbency profiles of yeast sedimentation can be described by the second-order equation suggested by Stradford and Keenan for the decrease of cell concentration during sedimentation.
