Abstract:BackgroundDistillers' grain waste (DGW) is the main by‐product in the Baijiu‐making process and its management remains a great challenge for the Baijiu industry. To address this issue, an integrated biobutanol and biomethane production process was established to obtain valuable products from DGW and reduce environmental pollution.ResultsIn the integrated process, DGW was hydrolyzed and detoxified to produce biobutanol, while the distillery waste derived from solvent extraction process was used for biomethane f… Show more
“…The high concentration of organics of Huangshui with some microorganisms can be used as a substrate or inoculum to treat certain types of organic wastewater for organic pollutant degradation and biofuel production. Wang et al [66] utilized the DSG containing Huangshui to co-produce biobutanol and bioCH 4 , having relatively high costs. Ling et al [11] observed that the antimicrobial activity of Huangshui could promote the oleaginous yeast to become the dominant microbes over undesirable microbes for treating mixed wastewater to produce lipids.…”

“…Using abundant organic substances to synthesize products with high value can obtain the material virtuous cycle in the Baijiu industry [11]. Through innovating food products, optimizing fertilization structure, and paying attention to healthy foods and integrated water and fertilizer, along with eco-friendly management and reutilization strategies, the full utilization of Huangshui can be achieved, with its maximum value, ultimately impelling the sustainable developments and prosperities of the food industry and agriculture fields [10,66]. With the intensification of energy and food crises and water shortages, as well as the increasing demand for environmental protection, the full utilization of high-strength organic wastewater can alleviate the above difficulties.…”
Huangshui is a typical organic wastewater in Chinese Baijiu production, with high pollution and valuable ingredients. Conventional wastewater treatment leads to resource-wasting and environmental pollution. It is urgent that the demand for effective Huangshui treatment with the development of the Baijiu-making industry. This review systematically summarizes recent studies, revealing the main characteristics and application of Huangshui, focusing on the application of the rich microbial resources and flavor substances, which provides a practical approach to cascade and full use of Huangshui in medicine, cosmetic, functional food, fertilizer, and wastewater treatment fields. Further research suggested that Huangshui can also be used as an external carbon source for the denitrification system or as an organic liquid water-soluble fertilizer for more fruits and grains. The applications favor improving production efficiency and lowering pollutant emissions and introduce novel concepts for the sustainable development of related industries. Thus, Chinese Baijiu plants can achieve the near-zero emissions of wastewater and cleaner production.
