Demineralisation of vinasse by electrodialysis

Journal of Food Engineering, 1988
Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the possibility of demineralising vinasse by electrodialysis. A prototype laboratory electrodialyzer was used with ‘Selemion’ (Asahi Glass Co) ion-exchange membranes at a constant current density between 5 and 15 mA cm −2 .

Kinetic analysis of the anaerobic digestion of untreated vinasses and vinasses previously treated with Penicillium decumbens

Journal of Environmental Management, 2006
A kinetic study was carried out on the anaerobic digestion of untreated vinasses and vinasses previously fermented with Penicillium decumbens. Two 1-l volume continuous-flow stirred tank reactors (CFSTR) operating at mesophilic temperature (35 degrees C) were used for the study. One reactor was fed with untreated vinasses (COD concentration of 80.5 g/l)

Selection of vinasse degrading microorganisms

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2010
Vinasse is a highly colored effluent with a high pollutant potential when disposed in the environment. Assays for decolorization of vinasse were performed, selecting the fungus Pleurotus sajor-caju CCB 020. The discoloration was cocominant with the increase of the activities of laccase, manganese-peroxidase and peroxidases. P. sajor-caju demonstrated a

Utilization of vinasse for the production of polyhydroxybutyrate by Haloarcula marismortui

Folia Microbiologica, 2012
Vinasse, a recalcitrant waste of the ethanol industry was employed for the production of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) by the extremely halophilic archaeon, Haloarcula marismortui in shake flasks. The PHA was recovered by osmotic lysis of the cells and subsequent purification by sodium hypochlorite and organic solvents.

Comparison of Aerobic and Anaerobic Biodegradation of Sugarcane Vinasse

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2015
Vinasse is the main liquid waste from ethanol production, and it has a considerable pollution potential. Biological treatment is a promising alternative to reduce its organic load. The aim of this study was to analyze the biodegradation of sugarcane juice vinasse in aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

Possibilities of the use of vinasses in the control of fungi phytopathogens

Bioresource Technology, 2008
The purpose of this research was to study the biocide effect of three agroindustrial subproducts, concretely sugar beet, sugar cane and wine vinasse. Results from in vitro testing determined that wine vinasse is what shows a 100% capacity to suppress fungal growth with concentrations between 5% and 7% for Fusarium oxysporum f.sp.

Vinasse incineration with bagasse as a supporting fuel

Sugar Industry, 2020
In India vinasse is mostly handled through bio-composting or bio-methanation, but large quantities are still discharged. Incineration can contribute to the steam and power production of the factory. Vinasse has a low calorific value not high enough to sustain combustion by itself.

Nitrogen Mineralization from Sugarcane Vinasse

Journal of Plant Nutrition, 2014
Vinasse is a liquid residue applied as a fertilizer in sugarcane crops. However, in areas far away from sugarcane mills the cost of the distribution can be very high due, the large volume of water. So, one solution is to concentrate the vinasse by the evaporation process to reduce transport costs.

Ozonation of vinasse in acid and alkaline media

Journal of Chemical Technology & Biotechnology, 2003
AbstractThe production of ethanol by fermentation and subsequent distillation generates wastewater known as ‘vinasse’. This waste is highly polluting on account of its high organic load and antibacterial activity—which arises from the presence of phenolic compounds that reduce the efficiency of the detoxification treatments best suited to this type of ...
