PROCESS FOR EDIBLE FILAMENTOUS FUNGAL CULTIVATION AND ITS INTEGRATION IN CONVENTIONAL SUGAR TO ETHANOL PRODUCTION

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for edible fungal cultivation by employing vinasse or spent wash of first generation ethanol production as a substrate. More particularly, the present invention relates to a process for edible fungal cultivation in the form of pellets and filamentous (mycelial) biomass and its applications as a feed composition for animal, aquatic feed or as human consumption either as itself or in any other form.
