Overview

Randomized trial evaluated ethanol production from enzymatic slurry using various yeast strains, indicating fermentation potential for biofuel production.

Key Points

This research investigates the fermentability of an enzymatic slurry enriched with glucose and xylose using different yeast strains.
Sugarcane bagasse was pretreated with alkaline-sulfite and disc refining.
Enzymatic hydrolysis involved β-glucosidase supplementation, achieving 75% conversion yield.
Ethanol fermentation tests were conducted at 30°C under nutrient conditions with three yeast strains.
Kluyveromyces marxianus Y-6860 showed higher ethanol productivity (Q_P = 3.25 g L−1 h−1) compared to Saccharomyces cerevisiae PE-2 (Q_P = 2.17 g L−1 h−1).
Scheffersomyces stipitis Y-7124 produced 46% more ethanol by consuming xylose significantly.
Under 100.0 g L−1 glucose, K. marxianus Y-6860 and S. cerevisiae PE-2 maintained strong fermentation, while S. stipitis Y-7124 had limited xylose uptake.
