simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (ssf) of rice cooker wastewater by using aspergillus niger and saccharomyces cerevisiae for ethanol production

Production of high concentrations of ethanol from inulin by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation using Aspergillus niger and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Pure nonhydrolyzed inulin was directly converted to ethanol in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process. An inulinase-hyperproducing mutant, Aspergillus niger 817, was grown in a submerged culture at 30 degrees C for 5 days. The inulin-digestive liquid culture (150 ml) was supplemented with 45 g of inulin, 0.45 g of (NH4)2SO4, and 0.15 g of KH2PO4. The medium (pH 5.0) was inocul...

SIMULTANEOUS SACCHARIFICATION AND FERMENTATION (SSF) OF PRETREATED SUGARCANE BAGASSE USING CELLULASE AND Saccharomyces cerevisiae - KINETICS AND MODELING

Optimization of process variables in the bioconversion of pretreated sugarcane bagasse using cellulase and Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation (SSF) was investigated in the present study. A 23 five level Central Composite Design (CCD) experiments with central and axial points were used to develop a statistical model for the optimization of process variable...

Solid State Fermentation for Production of Chitosan by Aspergillus Niger

The effect of Solid State Fermentation (SSF) on Chitosan production by A. niger was investigated. A. niger BBRC 20004 from Biochemical and Bioenvironmental Research Centre of Sharif University of Technology (Tehran, Iran), was grown on corn residue. Chitosan was extracted from the fungal mycelia using hot alkaline and acid treatment. A. niger was incubated for 12 days on corn residue with moist...

Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation of Cassava Waste for Ethanol Production

Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation of Waste Textiles for Ethanol Production

Ethanol production in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process using waste textiles as feedstock was studied. The dissolution pretreatment of waste textiles in ortho-phosphoric acid resulted in at least 2 fold improvement in enzymatic hydrolysis rate and reducing sugar yield. The reducing sugars obtained from dyed or discolored waste textiles by cellulase hydrolysis demons...

Engineered pentafunctional minicellulosome for simultaneous saccharification and ethanol fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Several yeast strains have been engineered to express different cellulases to achieve simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of lignocellulosic materials. However, successes in these endeavors were modest, as demonstrated by the relatively low ethanol titers and the limited ability of the engineered yeast strains to grow using cellulosic materials as the sole carbon source. Recently, su...
