Continuous ethanol production using immobilized yeast cells entrapped in loofa-reinforced alginate carriers
A culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae M30 entrapped in loofa-reinforced alginate was used for continuous ethanol fermentation in a packed-bed reactor with initial sugar concentrations of 200-248 g/L. Maximum ethanol productivity of 11.5 g/(L·h) was obtained at an ethanol concentration of 57.4 g/L, an initial sugar concentration of 220 g/L and a dilution rate (D) of 0.2 h(-1). However, a maximum...
متن کاملContinuous Ethanol Production Using Yeast Immobilized on Sugar-cane Stalks
Sugar-cane stalks, 2.0 cm long, were used as a support for yeast immobilization envisaging ethanol production. The assays were conducted in 38.5 L fermenters containing a bed of stalks with 50% porosity. The operational stability of the immobilized yeast, the efficiency and stability of the process, as well as the best dilution rate were evaluated. Molasses from demerara sugar production was us...
متن کاملReview: Continuous hydrolysis and fermentation for cellulosic ethanol production.
Ethanol made biologically from a variety of cellulosic biomass sources such as agricultural and forestry residues, grasses, and fast growing wood is widely recognized as a unique sustainable liquid transportation fuel with powerful economic, environmental, and strategic attributes, but production costs must be competitive for these benefits to be realized. Continuous hydrolysis and fermentation...
متن کاملAnalysis of a model for ethanol production through continuous fermentation
We investigate an experimentally verified model for the production of ethanol through continuous fermentation. Previous studies investigated this model using direct integration. Such integration is time consuming as parameter regions of interest can only be determined through laborious and repetitive calculations. Using techniques from nonlinear dynamical systems theory, in particular a combina...
متن کاملKinetic Modeling of Biosorption of Heavy Metals by Loofa-sponge Immobilized Phanerochaete chrysosporium From Aqueous Solution
Mat of mycelia of Phanerochaete chrysosporium were immobilized on loofa-sponge discs, as an inert support, to obtain a suitable biosorbent .Mean amount of immobilized P.chrysosporium on loofa-sponge was 376 mgg of dry loofa-sponge. In this study immobilized P.chrysosporium and naked loofa-sponge discs were used as biosorbent to remove Pb (II) and Cd (II) from aqueous solution .At kinetic study ...
