Effect of the presence of initial ethanol on ethanol production in sugar cane juice fermented by Zymomonas mobilis

Abstract: Ethanol production in sugar cane juice in high initial sugar concentration, fermented by Z. mobilis in the presence and absence of ethanol, was evaluated. Ethanol production was low in both media. The presence of initial ethanol in the sugar cane juice reduced ethanol production by 48.8%, biomass production by 25.0% and the total sugar consumption by 28.3%. The presence of initial ethanol in the medium did not affect significantly levan production and biomass yield coefficient (g biomass/g sugar consumed).

“…It was found a total soluble solids value of 18ºBx. For sugar cane juice an amount of total soluble solids in a range of 12-18ºBx (g sucrose 100 g juice -1 ) is regarded suitable for ethanol production (Tano and Buzato, 2003).…”

“…Comparative with yeast, Z. mobilis has a higher tolerance to ethanol and better kinetic characteristics such as higher specific substrate uptake, ethanol synthesis rate and substrate yield to ethanol. Moreover, it has advantages for the fermentation of glucose to ethanol which include a high yield of ethanol from glucose consumed and a high specific rate of ethanol production (Joachimsthal et al 1998;Tano and Buzato, 2003). Regarding the high amount of carbohydrates present in mesquite pods (Bravo et al 1994) and their high production in different countries, they could arise as a feasible alternative source for ethanol production.…”

“…A literatura relata usos práticos de levana para vários propósitos, por exemplo, como complexo biologicamente ativo, substituto de plasma sanguíneo, agente prolongador da ação de fármacos, preparação de frutose altamente purificada para uso médico (MAYS; DALLY, 1988), fator de promoção do crescimento de Bifidus spp (UEDA et al, 1994;TAPER;DELZENNE;ROBERFROID, 1997), agente hipocolesterolêmico (YAMAMOTO et al, 1999) e como imunomodulador e anticarcinogênico (LEIBOVICI; STARK, 1985;ANDRADE;MANO, 1991;CALAZANS et al, 1997;VINA et al, 1997). Hettwer; Gross; Rudolph (1995) Na indústria de alimentos, a levana tem vários usos potenciais: agente espessante, fixador de cores e sabores e em produtos dietéticos (YUN, 1996).…”

“…O interesse comercial pela levana motiva pesquisas tanto para a identificação de novos microrganismos produtores quanto para processos que visem à otimização de sua produção em escala industrial (REISS; HARTMEIER, 1990;KEITH et al, 1991;HARTMEIER et al, 1994;TANO;.…”

“…A cepa CP4 foi isolada de uma bebida fermentada e consumida pelo povo de Recife, denominada de Caldo Picado (MORAIS et al, 1993). Esta bactéria vem sendo utilizada experimentalmente na fermentação da garapa de cana-de-açúcar há mais de 20 anos (VUUREN;MEYER, 1982;RHEE et al, 1984;HUERTAZ-DÍAZ;CACHO;BERNARD, 1991;TANO;BUZATO, 2003). Estudos tem demonstrado também o potencial desse microrganismo para a produção de levana (BORSANI et al, 2006), sorbitol (CAZETTA et al, 2005VIGNOLI;, ácido glicônico (SILVEIRA et al, 1999) e mais recentemente para a produção de asparaginase (ABUD et al 2003 Fermentações em batelada: Foi usado inóculo de concentração de células de 2,0 mg/mL e em quantidade de 10 % (v/v) do volume total de fermentação.…”
