HIGH CONCENTRATION ETHANOL CONTINUOUS FERMENTATION USING YEAST FLOCS
自絮凝颗粒酵母酒精高浓度连续发酵的研究

Continuous ethanol fermentation using yeast flocs was carried out in 4 air-lift suspended-bed bioreactors operated in series. Drafted by CO2, with complete recycle of ethanol distilled effluent broth and at the dilution rate of 0.2/h, the average ethanol concentration of the fermentation broth was 96.6 g/L, while the average concentration of residual total sugar was 4.1 g/L and residual reducing sugar was 1.2 g/L.
