Production of Fructose and Ethanol from Sugar Beet Molasses Using Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 36858

Abstract: The production of enriched fructose syrups and ethanol from beet molasses using Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 36858 was studied. In batch experiments with a total sugar concentration between 94.9 and 312.4 g/L, the fructose yield was above 93% of the theoretical value. The ethanol yield and volumetric productivity in the beet molasses media with sugar concentration below 276.2 g/L were in the range of 59-76% of theoretical value and between 0.48 and 2.97 g of ethanol/(L x h), respectively. The fructose fractio… Show more

“…Furthermore, at a high concentration of molasses, a lag phase was prolonged and cell growth was slower ( Figure 2). Similar results were reported in production of ethanol using S. cerevisiae (20). However, in our previous report (21), BC concentration and BC yield by BPR2001 increased in fructose medium with increase in fructose concentration from 30 to 70 g/L in an airlift reactor.…”

“…There are many reports on co‐production of fructose and ethanol from sucrose by fructose nonutilizing mutants of S. cerevisiae (Atiyeh and Duvnjak 2001a,b, 2002) and Z. mobilis (Doelle and Doelle 1991; Kirk and Doelle 1994). These mutants were capable of utilizing glucose selectively from media with glucose/fructose mixtures or sucrose and producing fructose and ethanol.…”

“…1982), Zymomonas mobilis (Doelle 1989; Doelle and Doelle 1991; Kirk and Doelle 1994) were used for the production of fructose from sucrose media. The production of enriched fructose syrups and ethanol from sugar beet molasses (Atiyeh and Duvnjak 2002) and sucrose‐based media (Atiyeh and Duvnjak 2001a,b) using Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 36858 was also studied. The preliminary studies carried out by di Luccio et al.…”

“…The decrease in the counts of S. cerevisiae at 18 to 22 hrs of incubation could be possibly related to a metabolic repression (or enzymatic repression) resulting in a smaller microbial growth rate. Metabolic repression in some microorganisms occurs when high glucose concentration (> 3 g 100 g -1 ) are found in the growth media causing a depressed synthesis of respiratory/oxidative enzymes and ultimately resulting an increasing fermentative metabolism even when oxygen is available (Atiyeh and Duvnjak, 2002;Mahgoub et al 2005). …”

“…Nearly all fuel ethanol is produced by fermentation of corn glucose in the United States or sugar cane sucrose in Brazil (Rosillo-Calle and Cortez, 1998), but any country with a significant agronomic-based economy can use current technology for fuel ethanol production (Mielenz, 2001;Atiyeh and Duvnjak, 2002;Bothast and Schleicher, 2005).…”
