Modeling and identification of ABE fermentation processes [PDF]
The modeling and parameter identification of an Acetone-Butanol-Ethanol (ABE) fermentation process is investigated. The traditional approach tries to adjust the model parameters by means of an optimization such that the simulations fit the experimental data.

Comparison of acetone–butanol–ethanol fermentation and ethanol catalytic upgrading as pathways for butanol production: A techno-economic and environmental assessment [PDF]
Butanol is an important compound used as a building block for producing value-added products and an energy carrier. The main butanol production pathways are conventional acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE) fermentation and catalytic upgrading of ethanol.

Kinetic Study of Acetone-Butanol-Ethanol Fermentation in Continuous Culture. [PDF]
Acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation by clostridia has shown promise for industrial-scale production of biobutanol. However, the continuous ABE fermentation suffers from low product yield, titer, and productivity. Systems analysis of the continuous

The preparation of bio-butanol from corn starch requires saccharification and fermentation processes. In view of the fact that the pH value at the later stage of fermentation is applicable to the enzymatic hydrolysis of glucoamylase, the effects of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) and separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) were ...

Solvent screening methodology for in situ ABE extractive fermentation [PDF]
Solvent screening for in situ liquid extraction of products from acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation was carried out, taking into account biological parameters (biocompatibility, bioavailability, and product yield) and extraction performance (partition coefficient and selectivity) determined in real fermentation broth.

Increase Butanol Production from Corn Straw by Mineral Compounds Supplementation
In this study, two types of fermentation methods: SSF and consolidation SHF/SSF were used for production of acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) from corn straw as a feedstock. Clostridium acetobutylicum DSM1731 was used as the fermenting organism.

Effect of residual extractable lignin on acetone–butanol–ethanol production in SHF and SSF processes
Background Lignin plays an important role in biochemical conversion of biomass to biofuels. A significant amount of lignin is precipitated on the surface of pretreated substrates after organosolv pretreatment.

Downstream process options for the ABE fermentation [PDF]
Butanol is a very interesting substance both for the chemical industry and as a biofuel. The classical distillation process for the removal of butanol is far too energy demanding, at a factor of 220% of the energy content of butanol. Alternative separation processes studied are hybrid processes of gas-stripping, liquid-liquid extraction and ...
