Results were as follows. The optimal process of alcohol fermentation was as follows: original sugar degree of 16%, yeast inoculum size of 5% and p H value of 3.5 through single-factor experiment. The optimal fermentation process of acetic acid optimized by response surface methodology was as follows: inoculum size of 8.52%, original alcohol content of 6.0% and p H value of 3.3, in the optimal condition the yield of acetic acid was 53.11 g/L. Single factor action and the interaction of two factors were presented on the yield of acetic acid.The effects of inoculum size and p H were extremely significant, and that of original alcohol content significant. The interaction of inoculum size and original alcohol content was non-significant, that of inoculum size and p H also non-significant. On contrast, original alcohol content and p H had significant interaction.展开更多
