A Study on Ethanol fermentation by Immobilized yeast.

고정화 효모를 이용한 Ethanol 발효

A Study for ethanol fermentation with immobilized yeast that is entrapped to Ca-alginate beads and batch system was carried out using molasses as substrate. The results are as follows. 1. The yield of alcohol fermentation is more efficacious then that of conventional fermentation process. The beads were used 15times and got a result of fermentation yield rate 89. 57％∼92.35％f, which is comparable with the rate of 86.3％ gained from the conventional fermentation process. 2. The concentration of Ca-alginate was 1∼5％ For long run use (2520 hours) it is necessary 2％ or more concentration of Ca-alginate. 3. The amount of the yeast cells for entrap to Ca-alginate beads was required 1.0g (indried material) or more for 200g Ca-alginate beads.
