Enhanced Production of Bioethanol by Fermentation of Autohydrolyzed and C4mimOAc-Treated Sugarcane Bagasse Employing Various Yeast Strains
نویسندگان
چکیده
This study examines the fermentation of autohydrolyzed and 1-n-butyl-3methylimidazolium acetate (C4mimOAc) pretreated sugarcane bagasse, using four different yeast strains to determine the efficiency of bioethanol production. Three strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae) and one of Scheffersomyces stipitis (S. stipitis) were employed in this study. It was observed that the sugarcane bagasse autohydrolyzed at 205 ◦C for 6 min with subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis exhibited the maximum ethanol yield of 70.92 ± 0.09 mg/g-substrate when S. cerevisiae MZ-4 was used. However, a slightly higher ethanol yield of 78.78 ± 0.94 mg/g-substrate was obtained from C4mimOAc pretreated bagasse employing S. cerevisiae MZ-4. The study showed that the newly isolated MZ-4 strain exhibited better ethanol yield as compared to commercially available yeast strains S. cerevisiae Uvaferm-43, S. cerevisiae Lalvin EC-1118, and S. stipitis.

Biotechnology strategies with industrial fuel ethanol Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains for efficient 1st and 2nd generation bioethanol production from sugarcane
Background In Brazil the production of fuel ethanol is based on the fermentation of sucrose from sugarcane by selected industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strains [1-3], a mature and highly competitive technology. Taking into account that the feedstock costs have a major role in the overall economics of the process, it is expected that more efficient conversions of sucrose into ethanol (1...

Consolidated bioprocess assures an efficient lignocellulosic conversion to fermentable sugars and subsequently to bioethanol. Such a single-step hydrolysis and anaerobic fermentation was achieved with acclimated Clostridium thermocellum DSM 1313 on different mildly pre-treated agricultural lignocellulosic residues without any additional enzymes/and strains. Acclimation was achieved by serially ...

BACKGROUND Robust yeasts with high inhibitor, temperature, and osmotic tolerance remain a crucial requirement for the sustainable production of lignocellulosic bioethanol. These stress factors are known to severely hinder culture growth and fermentation performance. RESULTS Grape marc was selected as an extreme environment to search for innately robust yeasts because of its limited nutrients,...
