Application of a slurry feeder to 1 and 3 stage continuous simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of dilute acid pretreated corn stover
چکیده انگلیسی


• A laboratory scale slurry-fed three stage continuous fermentation system was set up.
• The performance of continuous SSF of pretreated corn stover was measured.
• Dilution rates of up to 0.25 h−1 could be operated stably without cell wash out.
• Productivity in 3 stage continuous SSF was 12% higher compared to single stage.

Continuous operation is often chosen for conceptual designs of biological processing of cellulosic biomass to ethanol to achieve higher volumetric productivities. Furthermore, continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR) can handle higher solids concentrations than possible in batch mode due to broth thinning at partial conversion in a continuous fermentor. However, experience and literature data are very limited for continuous simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (cSSF) processes. In this work, a slurry feed system was developed and applied to a 3-stage bench-scale cSSF train to convert pretreated corn stover to ethanol and determine the effects of dilution rate and number of fermentation vessels on overall volumetric productivity. The highest productivity of 0.4 g L−1 h−1 was achieved in a single cSSF vessel with an 8 h residence time. Furthermore, productivity at identical total residence times was 12% higher for operation with 3 cSSF stages than for a single CSTR stage for pretreated corn stover.
