Mathematical modeling and computersimulation of cellulase production

摘要

In order to overcome the energy and environmental problems, biologicalhydrolysis of cellulosic material for ethanol production is a way to take the placeof fossil fuels. But, the major problem of above process is the high cost ofcellulase production. Mathematical modeling is a useful way of process analysisand optimization, which may help to increase the productivity and decreaseproduction cost. In this research, mathematical modeling of cellulosefermentation process is made, and used in analyses of the fermentation process.
