Production of Ethanol from Rice Straw using Xylose Fermenting Yeast IsolatesBy Nidhi Paliwal, Dhiraj Guriyan, Hari Mohan, S.K. Gakhar, Kamla Chaudhary
Abstract: With increasing energy demand world-over, there is a need to develop cost effective technologies for the production of bio fuels using renewable sources such as lignocellulosic biomass. However, ethanol productivity is still low and the process is not economically viable. The major limiting factors include the complex and highly crystalline structure of lignocellulosics, low loading rate during saccharification and low amount of hexose and pentose sugars generated during saccharification. Distiller’s …
