Figure 1From: Simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation for bioethanol production using corncobs at lab, PDU and demo scalesScreening of S. cerevisiae strains in corncobs hydrolysate. Xylose consumption, xylitol and ethanol yields, ethanol concentration in corncobs hydrolysate after 96 h of fermentation in anaerobic shake flasks. KE4-22 is the parental strain of AD2-10 and KE6-12. AD1-13 is the parental strain of RHA-15, RHC-15 and RHD-15. A: xylose consumed (%), B: xylitol yield on consumed xylose (g g-1), C: ethanol yield (%, based on maximum theoretical ethanol yield on available glucose and xylose), D: ethanol concentration (g l-1) at the end of 96 h.Back to article page
