  abstract = {{P}enicillium commune was grown on coffee pulp ({CP}) by solid-state fermentation ({SSF}). {T}he effects of the duration of {CP} thermal treatment and the effects of incubation temperature on spore production yield were studied at laboratory scale. {T}he effect of mixing during fermentation was assayed at pilot plant scale in a 70 {L} stainless steel non-aseptic reactor equipped with helical ribbons for mixing solids. {F}or thermal treatments of {CP} at 121 degrees {C} for 10, 20, 30 and 40rnin, no significant difference in spore production yield was observed. {M}aximum sporulation yield was found at 25 degrees {C}; when the incubation temperature was higher than 30 degrees {C}, the sporulation yield decreased significantly. {A} spore production yield of 3.7 x 10(9) spores g(-1) dry {CP} was obtained when continuous mixing (0.25 rpm) was used at pilot plant scale; however, a decrease in spore yield (1.4 x 10(9) spores g(-1) dry {CP}) was observed under static conditions. {S}pore production was not affected when a scale factor between 79 and 105 was assayed from laboratory to pilot plant; at this level, the productivity obtained was 3.1 x 10(7) spores g(-1) dry {CP} h(-1). {T}his value is similar to that found in other reports using natural substrates but working at a smaller scale.
