In this paper the simulation model of recirculation bioprocess was developed, which may be applied for increasing the biomass productivity and product biosynthesis, increasing the conversion of a substrate-to-product, mixing efficiency and secondary CO2 separation. The goal of the work is optimal bioprocess configuration, which is determined by simulation optimization. The optimal chemostat state was used as referent. Step-by-step simulation method is necessary because the initial bioprocess state is changing with recirculation in each step. The simulation experiment confirms that at the recirculation ratio alfa=0.275 and the concentration factor C=4 the maximum glucose conversion to ethanol and at a dilution rate ten times larger.
