In-Situ Continuous Production of Hydrogen Gas from Molasses Using Mutated Enterobacter aerogenes ADH43 for Fuel Cell Application

(Received: October 13, 2011; Accepted: November 25, 2011) Abstract: The performance of the continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) for the in-situ production of hydrogen gas (H ) integrated with a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) was investigated. Facultative 2 anaerobe fermentation of Enterobacter aerogenes ADH-43 was conducted into CSTR 50 rpm of agitation speed, 37°C of temperat...

Centrifugal Clarification of Molasses

The compositions of the various organic and inorganic species in cane molasses show wide variations. Centrifugation can be used to remove suspended so!id particles. The bulk of these are precipitated calcium compounds. Removal of calcium by precipitation and subsequent centrifugation can be enhanced by the addition of sulphuric acid. The effects of dilution, temperature, and acid addition on th...

A Routine Method for Measuring Molasses Viscosity

Viscosity of molasses is determined under standard conditions (50°C, 80% Karl Fischer solids) using a Hoeppler viscosimeter. Samples are pretreated by dilution and concentration under vacuum to dissolve crystal and remove air. Measurements are made at two different concentrations, preferably slightly below and slightly above 80% solids and the required value obtained by extrapolation using the ...
