A cellulose hydrolysate from Aspen wood, containing mainly glucose, was fermented into ethanol by a thermotolerant strain MSN77 ofZymomonas mobilis. The effect of the hydrolysate concentration on fermentation parameters was investigated. Growth parameters (specific growth rate and biomass yield) wer

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 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
