Ethanol Fermentation from Sweet Sorghum Juice

2010 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, June 20 - June 23, 2010, 2010
In recent years bio-ethanol, considered the cleanest liquid fuel alternative to fossil fuels derived from agricultural staples or waste has been of great interest as the ethanol consumption is expected to reach 11.2 billion gallons by 2012. Sweet sorghum containing 18-20% fermentable sugar is an ideal feedstock grown in the Southeast and Midwest states

Field Harvest of Sweet Sorghum Juice

Transactions of the ASAE, 1983
ABSTRACT A forage harvester was modified to perform in-field harvest of sweet sorghum juice. Tests were conducted to determine operating characteristics of the machine and to evaluate the potential of sweet sorghum as a source for ethanol in Central Illinois.

Design Factors for Milling Sweet Sorghum

Transactions of the ASAE, 1984
ABSTRACT Two varieties of sweet sorghum (Wray and M 8IE), in 30 cm billets or in whole stalks, were processed with a modified shredder and/or modified mill to obtain basic system design information. The shredder-mill eliminated hand feeding of whole stalks and the system could be automated to operate continuously at maximum feed rate, which was 2.5 ...

Single-Pass Harvesting of Sweet Sorghum

Applied Engineering in Agriculture, 1990
Two harvesters were evaluated in a one-pass harvesting system for sweet sorghum. The evaluation was based on harvesting performance, operating problems, and quality of juice extracted. Theoretical field capacities of the two machines were 0.08 ha/h (0.21 acre/h) and 0.03 ha/h (0.07 acre/h). Results indicated that extraction of juice during harvest by a

Ethanol production from sweet sorghum residual

Frontiers of Chemical Engineering in China, 2008
In this work, the ethanol production from sweet sorghum residue was studied. Sweet sorghum residue was hydrolyzed with phosphoric acid under mild conditions. The liquid hydrolysate was fermented by Pachysolen tannophilus, and the hydrolysis residue was fermented by the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) using Saccharomyces cerevisiae ...

Optimization of sweet sorghum processing parameters

2017
Production of fuel ethanol from renewable biomass sources has gained popularity in recent years. Sweet sorghum is one of the crops identified as an efficient producer of the sugars needed for ethanol production. The juice in the sweet sorghum pith contains the greatest proportion of nonstructural carbohydrates, the presumed fermentable material.

JUICINESS AND SWEETNESS IN SORGHUM STALKS.

Madras Agricultural Journal, 1935
Sorghum is a valuable grain crop. It is pre-eminently a food crop of the poor cultivators, and the dominant cereal of regions of low rainfall. The average yield of grain is about 700 pounds to the acre. The chief point in which sorghum scores over other cereals, is in its heavy yield of fodder. This fodder is on an average about four times the yield of
