Advanced Bioethanol Production
2011Bioethanol was seen as a promising clean renewable biofuel, principally as a fuel additive which could improve engine performance and reduce air pollution, and was the first biofuel produced on a large scale. US production of ethanol from corn, a first-generation biofuel, reached 50.3 billion litres in 2010 and is projected to rise to 54.3 billion ...

On enhancing productivity of bioethanol with multiple species
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 2012AbstractThe present work is initiated to investigate whether a defined culture comprising a mixture of three yeast species, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Pichia stipitis can ferment a mixture of sugars to produce bioethanol at rates higher than those achieved by pure cultures of the same.

Fusarium oxysporum: Status in Bioethanol Production
Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 1991Fermentation 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

Scientific challenges of bioethanol production in Brazil
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2011Bioethanol (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.

Ensiling Agricultural Residues for Bioethanol Production
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2007The 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, 2013Tropical 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.

Bioethanol Production Optimization: A Thermodynamic Analysis
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2008In 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).

Global Production of Bioethanol
2013Several countries have introduced or are introducing programs for fuel ethanol. According to RFA, Brazil and the US are the dominant industrial players, accounting for 87 % of global biofuel production driven by government support.

Effects of yeast immobilization on bioethanol production
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, 2014AbstractThe 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.

Marine Enzymes and Microorganisms for Bioethanol Production
2017Bioethanol 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.
