Industrialization of sauerkraut production in Poland will need to solve the problem associated with disposing of highly acidic waste effluents. Late sauerkraut brine present the greatest problem with respect to treatment because of their high BOD and low pH. Degradation rate of sauerkraut brine by Kluyveromyces marxianus yeast - depends on concentration of the brine in the medium. The removal of lactic acid in shake flask experiments varied from 98.95 to 56.75 % after 48 h at 30°C. The immobilization of yeast in sodium alginate improved the lactic acid degradation rate and allow to treat the very acid brine directly. Lactic acid was fully used in diluted brine in 24 h and the content in undiluted brine was reduced by 90.17 to 81.2 to % in the following runs after 48 h.
