Abstract
⺠We studied butyric acid production from sugarcane bagasse (SCB) hydrolysate. ⺠High sugar yields were obtained from SCB after acid pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis. ⺠C. tyrobutyricum was immobilized in a FBB for fed-batch fermentation of SCB hydrolysate. ⺠High butyric acid yield (>0.45 g/g sugar) and productivity (0.51 g/L h) were obtained. ⺠This study demonstrated the feasibility of producing butyric acid from low-cost SCB feedstock.
