Cassava stalks were successfully converted to ethanol by fermentation using Saccharomyces cerevisiae TISTR5048, S. cerevisiae KM1195, S. cerevisiae KM7253 and co-culture of S. cerevisiae TISTR5048 and Candida tropicalis TISTR5045. The objective of this study was to assess the ethanol production from cassava stalks by dilute-acid pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis that were convertible into ethanol by mono-culture and co-culture of yeast strain. Cassava stalks 1.5% （w/v） in 0.1 M sulfuric acid was pretreated for 30 min at 135 ℃ under the pressure of 15 lb/inch2. The pretreated cassava stalk suspensions were neutralized to pH 5.5 for saccharification process. The enzyme solution （a-amylase, amyloglucosidase, cellulase, xylanase and pectinase solubilized in buffer pH 5.0） was used for hydrolysis ofpretreated cassava stalk at 50 ℃ for 24 h. The hydrolyaste was supplemented with additional nutrients. The culture was incubated at 30 ℃. The pretreatment of the stalk with dilute-acid resulted sugar yield of 0.57 g/g dry matter from enzymatic hydrolysis, which was higher than dilute-alkaline-pretreated and distilled water-pretreated stalk. The sugar hydrolysate was bioconverted to ethanol with separate hydrolysis and fermentation （SHF） and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation （SSF）. The highest ethanol yields of 98.43% and 95.29% were obtained in SHF and SSF, respectively by S. cerevisiae KM1195. The fermentation time of SSF process was 24-32 h shorter than that of the SHF （= 56 h）, but not significantly leading to difference in ethanol production （5.42 g/L-6.22 g/L for SSF; 5.9 g/L-6.23 g/L for SHF）.展开更多

To improve the enzymatic digestibility of these biomass and bioethanol production, three pretreatment methods had been investigated and compared, including： （1） 2% w/v NaOH solution autoclaving pretreatment; （2） 2% w/v H2SO4 solution autoclaving pretreatment and （3） two steps of 2% w/v NaOH solution autoclaving followed by 2% w/v H2SO4 solution autoclaving pretreatment. Among them, the best result for ethanol production was obtained when 15 g DS of sugarcane shoots and leaves was pretreated by using two step of 2% w/v NaOH solution autoclaving followed by 2% w/v H2SO4 solution autoclaving. The highest ethanol concentration 30.40 g/L （92.65% in fermentation efficiency） was obtained from reducing sugar 89.25 g/L at 48 h. Moreover, the washing step of solid residue after pretreatment could reduce furfural and hydroxymethylfurfural （HMF） in all pretreatment methods when compared to unwashing solid residue after pretreatment.展开更多

Lignocellulose based sugar alcohols such as sorbitol, mannitol, xylitol, and erythritol can be potentially used as emerging fuels and chemicals. These sugar alcohols can be converted into widely used products(e.g. polymer synthesis, food and pharmaceuticals industry). The heterogeneous catalytic production of sugar alcohols from renewable biomass provides a safe and sustainable approach. Hydrolysis, coupled with hydrogenation and hydrogenolysis has been proved to be more effective strategy for sugar alcohols production from biomass. This review summarizes the recent advances in biomass upgrading reactions for the production of sugar alcohols and their comprehensive applications.展开更多
