Abstract:
1. A method for producing entrapping immobilization pellets which entraps and immobilizes microorganisms in an immobilizing material, by polymerizing the immobilizing material to gelate in the presence of the microorganisms, the method comprising: a raw material solution preparing step for mixing the microorganisms with the immobilizing material to prepare a raw material solution; a solution temperature measuring step for measuring a temperature of the prepared raw material solution; and an additive rate adjusting step for adjusting an additive rate of a polymerization initiator added to the prepared raw material solution, wherein in the additive rate adjusting step, the additive rate is adjusted according to the measured temperature so that the entrapping immobilization pellets to be produced have a ratio A/B (kgf/cm
