The kinetic behaviour of Z zmomonas mobilis is studied at temperatures from 27ยฐC to 34.5ยฐC. Increases of temperature (above a critical value) have a negative effect on the yield of ethanol, mainly by raising the maintenance coefficient. Cell growth is less inhibited by the ethanol accumulation insid

The influence of pH and medium composition on the production of ethanol by Zymomonas mobilis was investigated with fructose as substrate. The kinetic properties of the strain on fructose were as good as on glucose and pH 5.0 was found optimum. A mineral medium contaioing calcium pantothenate was des
Two strains of Z.mobilis were evaluated for temperature sensitivity between 25oc and 40ยฐ~ higher temperatures the cell viability, biomass yield, ethanol yield and final ethanol concentration decreased, and there was evidence of increased ethanol inhibition. However the kinetic parameters ~, qs and
The effects of temperature and inlet pH of the medium on the ethanol productivity and activity of the immobilized Z. mobilis cells during continuous fermentation of glucose have been studied at various temperatures and pH. On changing the temperature from one steady state level to a new one, 6-8 h w
