Producing Ethanol from Water Hyacinth through Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation with Acclimatized Yeasts

The production rate and yield of ethanol was markedly increased when water hyacinth, pretreated with microwave-assisted dilute acid, was fermented with acclimatized yeasts through simultaneous saccharification and fermentation. Water hyacinth hydrolyzate microwaved with 1% (v/v) dilute sulfuric acid...
