Recent interest in the industrial manufacture of ethanol and other organic chemicals from
biomass has led to the utilization of surplus grain and cane juice as a fermentation …

Batch experiments were carried out for conversion of cellulose to lactic acid by simultaneous
saccharification and fermentation (SSF) at different pH values. Saccharification was carried …

Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) processes for producing ethanol from
lignocellulose are capable of improved hydrolysis rates, yields, and product concentrations …

The product, lactic acid, strongly inhibited microbial activity in lactic acid fermentation. The
volumetric productivity declined from 1.19 g/lh with zero lactic acid (control) to only 0.18 g/lh …

The cellulosic fraction of biomass feedstocks can be converted to ethanol, a promising
alternative fuel, using the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process …

Alcohol fermentation has traditionally been carried out in aqueous environments because of
the ready solubility of reactant (sugar) and product (ethanol). However, extraction of the …

The conversion of cellulose, especially waste cellulosics, into utilizable materials, especially
liquid fuel, is a most valuable outcome of cellulase technology pioneered at the US Army …

Cellulosic materials are important resources for the production of fuels and chemicals. One
of the processes designed to utilize cellulosic materials is enzymatic hydrolysis followed by …

In simultaneous saccharification and fermentation, ethanol is rapidly produced which inhibits
cellulase and fermentation activity. A technique for the removal of ethanol from the system …

Lactic acid is an industrially important product with a large and rapidly expanding market
due to its attractive and valuable multi-function properties. The economics of lactic acid …
