- Hydrolysis and fermentation were conducted at 19%, 30%, and 45% solids.
- Corn stover at 45% (CS45) solids loading released 205 ± 25.8 g/L glucose
- Ethanol release for CS45 was 115.9 ± 6.7 g/L after 60 h of fermentation.
- Techno-economic analysis revealed an ROI of 8% at 45% solids loading.
- Global warming potential for CS45 was â37.8 gCO2 eq./MJ ethanol.
This study explores the effect of high-solids loading for a fed batch enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. The solids loading considered was 19%, 30% and 45% using wheat straw and corn stover as a feedstock. Based on the experimental results, techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessments were performed. The experimental results showed that 205 ± 25.8 g/L glucose could be obtained from corn stover at 45% solids loading after 96 h which when fermented yielded 115.9 ± 6.37 g/L ethanol after 60 h of fermentation. Techno-economic analysis showed that corn stover at 45% loading yielded the highest ROI at 8% with a payback period less than 12 years. Similarly, the global warming potential was lowest for corn stover at 45% loading at â37.8 gCO2 eq./MJ ethanol produced.
