Abstract:We previously observed that as glucose is completely exhausted during ethanol fermentation, the dissolved carbon dioxide (DCO 2) level in the fermenter will suddenly decline. This observation was implemented to design and develop a DCO 2-driven-and-controlled repeated batch fermentation process for ethanol production. The process was tested at four different glucose concentrations (~150 g/L, 200 g/L,~250 g/L, and~300 g/L), and each glucose concentration was controlled under three respective DCO 2 control level… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
