Process optimization for ethanol production from very high gravity (VHG) finger millet medium using response surface methodology
The Box-Wilson central composite design (CCD) based on response surface methodology (RSM) was used for ethanol fermentation using very high gravity (VHG) finger millet hydrolysate. Optimized process variables were namely, concentrations of yeast extract, magnesium sulphate and pH of the medium. High gravity mashes (>300 g dissolved solids per liter) were prepared by a thermo-stable α-amylase, f...
متن کاملBiotechnology 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...

Fermentation characteristics of four strains of brewer's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain 70424, S.rouxii strain 2535, S. rouxii strain 2531 and Saccharomyces ludwigii strain 3447) in Yeast Moldbrothcontaining four different fermentable sugars (glucose, fructose, maltose, or sucrose) were studied. Theaim was to consider the suitability of different strain/sugar treatment...
متن کاملThe Brazilian technology of fuel ethanol fermentation – yeast inhibition factors and new perspectives to improve the technology
Brazil is the second largest producer of ethanol in the world and the first in the technology of ethanol from sugar cane. The Brazilian bioprocess of ethanol production is based on molasses or cane juice substrate. Currently, a fed-batch or continuous or mixed process is operated with a stable cell recycle and high yeast concentration. The ethanol efficiency is controlled by several industrial ...
متن کاملDiagnosis of the noise emission in a plastic recycling plant located in the municipality of Caçador, Santa Catarina, Brazil
Background: With industrial development, many production processes emit high levels of noise, presenting problems for society. This emission causes an environmental impact on employees and also on the surrounding environment. Materials and Methods: The present study was performed with the objective of analyzing the noise emission in a plastic recycling plant in the municipality of Caçador, San...
