Simulation, Analysis and Optimization of Sugar Concentration in an In Situ Gas Stripping Fermentation Process for Bioethanol Production

Ethanol production in Brazil is carried out through biological routes where yeasts are generally employed. For greater flexibility, ethanol production is linked to the sugar production. In this configuration, the main by- product of sugar production (molasses containing about 50 % wt in sugars) can...
