Simultaneous saccharification/fermentation with zymomonas mobilis [PDF]
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1986 In recent years, an ethanol production process has been developed which utilizes Trichoderma reesei cellulase and Candida brassicae IFO 1664 in the simultaneous saccharification/fermentation (SSF) of cellulose to ethanol. The direct production of ethanol from cellulose in an SSF process alleviates the problem of end production inhibition.
