Kinetics of Bioethanol Production from Waste Sorghum Leaves Using Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4743

Abstract: Kinetic models for bioethanol production from waste sorghum leaves by Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4743 are presented. Fermentation processes were carried out at varied initial glucose concentrations (12.5-30.0 g/L). Experimental data on cell growth and substrate utilisation fit the Monod kinetic model with a coefficient of determination (R 2 ) of 0.95. A maximum specific growth rate (µ max ) and Monod constant (K S ) of 0.176 h −1 and 10.11 g/L, respectively, were obtained. The bioethanol production data fit th… Show more

“…Figure 2 shows the Lineweaver–Burk plot estimating the μ max and K s values in a batch ethanol fermentation where the values of μ max and K s were found to be 0.179 h −1 and 11.37 g.L −1 respectively, which were too close to the values reported in previous studies [17,18] using sweet sorghum leaves and oil palm jus. However, these values were different from the values reported in other studies [19,20,21,22,23].…”

“…The consequences of this work show that the reaction surface technique could be utilized to advance ethanol creation yield from wipe gourd. The outcomes gotten in this exploration for bioethanol creation from wipe gourd are along these lines promising (Rorke and Gueguim Kana, 2017;Ballesteros et al, 2004, Fan et al, 1987. The ethanol yield in % decreased up to the mid-range concentration, followed by a further increase in the yield.…”

“…Nowadays, many chemicals are produced from lignocellulosic biomass and ethanol is one of them. Ethanol has wide range of applications due to its renewable nature, ease of storage, the fact that it is free of sulfur, and its less contribution to global warming and air pollution (Rorke & Kana, 2017). Ethanol is commercially produced from edible feedstocks such as corn, maize, sorghum, barley etc.…”
