Fusarium oxysporum: Status in Bioethanol Production

Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 1991
Fermentation of lignocellulosic materials to ethanol and other solvents provides an alternative way of treating wastes and producing chemical feedstocks and fuel additives. Considerable efforts have been made in past 10 years to improve the process based on lignocellulosic biomass and hydrolysate that contains a complex mixture of sugars, decomposition

Ensiling Agricultural Residues for Bioethanol Production

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2007
The potential of using ensiling, with and without supplemental enzymes, as a cost-effective pretreatment for bioethanol production from agricultural residues was investigated. Ensiling did not significantly affect the lignin content of barley straw, cotton stalk, and triticale hay ensiled without enzyme, but slightly increased the lignin content in ...

Use of tropical maize for bioethanol production

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2013
Tropical maize is an alternative energy crop being considered as a feedstock for bioethanol production in the North Central and Midwest United States. Tropical maize is advantageous because it produces large amounts of soluble sugars in its stalks, creates a large amount of biomass, and requires lower inputs (e.g. nitrogen) than grain corn.

Scientific challenges of bioethanol production in Brazil

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2011
Bioethanol (fuel alcohol) has been produced by industrial alcoholic fermentation processes in Brazil since the beginning of the twentieth century. Currently, 432 mills and distilleries crush about 625 million tons of sugarcane per crop, producing about 27 billion liters of ethanol and 38.7 million tons of sugar.

Bioethanol Production Optimization: A Thermodynamic Analysis

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2008
In this work, the phase equilibrium of binary mixtures for bioethanol production by continuous extractive process was studied. The process is composed of four interlinked units: fermentor, centrifuge, cell treatment unit, and flash vessel (ethanol-congener separation unit).

Effects of yeast immobilization on bioethanol production

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, 2014
AbstractThe current study evaluated a newer method, which includes a dehydration step, of immobilizing Saccharomyces cerevisiae L‐77 and S. cerevisiae L‐73 onto hydroxylapatite and chamotte ceramic supports. The efficiency of cell immobilization on chamotte was significantly higher than hydroxylapatite.

Bioethanol production from microalgae polysaccharides

Folia Microbiologica, 2019
The worldwide growing demand for energy permanently increases the pressure on industrial and scientific community to introduce new alternative biofuels on the global energy market. Besides the leading role of biodiesel and biogas, bioethanol receives more and more attention as first- and second-generation biofuel in the sustainable energy industry ...

Marine Enzymes and Microorganisms for Bioethanol Production

2017
Bioethanol is a potential alternative fuel to fossil fuels. Bioethanol as a fuel has several economic and environmental benefits. Though bioethanol is produced using starch and sugarcane juice, these materials are in conflict with food availability.

Processes of Bioethanol Production

2019
In this chapter, the production processes of bioethanol from diverse sources are described with some attention on the pretreatment of the raw material available. The production of bioethanol from sugarcane is described following the main production steps and some data are given on the process conditions and operations without going into the theoretical
