PROCESS FOR LIQUID/SOLID SEPARATION OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC BIOMASS HYDROLYSATE FERMENTATION BROTH

摘要

WHEN LIGNOCELLULOSIC BIOMASS HYDROLYSATE IS INCLUDED IN FERMENTATION MEDIUM, THE BROTH RESULTING FROM BIOCATALYST PRODUCTION IS COMPLEX WITH LOW FILTERABILITY. A HEAT TREATMENT WAS FOUND TO INCREASE FILTERABILITY, ALLOWING EFFICIENT SEPARATION OF A LIQUID FRACTION FROM A SOLID FRACTION, WHICH IS FURTHER PROCESSED FOR WATER RECYCLE AND SYRUP PRODUCTION.
