Production of Bioethanol by Zymomonas Mobilis in High-gravity Extractive Fermentations
Continuous removal of ethanol during production by the anaerobic bacterium Zymomonas mobilis mitigated ethanol inhibition. Ethanol inhibited its own production at a concentration of >20 g L−1. Ethanol productivity was enhanced by continuous in situ extraction with water-immiscible organic solvent...
