Abstract:The optimization of fermentation parameters for ethanol production by elite thermo tolerant yeast Kluveromyces marxianus was investigated in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process using pretreated cumbu napier grass. The physical chemical characterization of the substrate expressed that the cellulose content was about 48.7 per cent and the hemicelluloses content was 20 per cent. The fermentation parameters such as commercial cellulase concentration, pH, temperature and fermentation time using t… Show more
