Abstract
Hydrothermal pretreatment is a promising approach to lignocellulosic biomass processing for enzymatic hydrolysis and high-yield bioethanol fermentation, as it reduces downstream inhibitor content and the amount of toxic byproducts generated. In this study, the ethanol yield and productivity of an engineered xylose-fermenting strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were tested on lignocellulosic hydrolysates produced with varying citrate buffer concentration, solid loading, supplemental nitrogen source, and feedstock of origin, and a semi-integrated bioprocess which integrates enzymatic hydrolysis and bioethanol fermentation was developed. The greatest ethanol yields (gp/gs) of 0.490 ± 0.008, 0.460 ± 0.001, 0.420 ± 0.002 and 0.410 ± 0.002 were obtained from bioenergy sorghum (BES), Miscanthus × giganteus (MG), energy cane (EC), and oilcane (OC), respectively. In addition, an equivalent of 291 L, 253.54 L, 257.8 L, and 260.3 L of bioethanol were produced per ton of BES, MG, EC, and OC, respectively, by using urea as a nitrogen source in a bioreactor.
