High Gravity Fermentation of Sugarcane Bagasse Hydrolysate by <i>Saccharomyces pastorianus</i> to Produce Economically Distillable Ethanol Concentrations: Necessity of Medium Components Examined

A major economic obstacle in lignocellulosic ethanol production is the low sugar concentrations in the hydrolysate and subsequent fermentation to economically distillable ethanol concentrations. We have previously demonstrated a two-stage fermentation process that recycles xylose with xylose isomera...
