Abstract: In this article, fermentation condition of Xanthan Gum in airlift fermentor was studied. According to its characters, anew method was proposed by adding sugar with two-step on the basis of batch fermentation, and result was tested in 50L airliftfermentor. It showeds that the new method would benefit the yield and fluid viscocity.

Key words: Xanthan Gum, batch fermentation, two-step fermentation
