✦ Synopsis


Zeolite NaY at 5 g dm~3 concentration, was selected to improve the production of ethanol fermentation by Saccharomyces bayanus from high glucose concentration media. The highest ethanol productivity (3É07 g dm~3 h~1) was obtained from a 220 g dm~3 initial glucose concentration, while the highest ethanol concentration (130 g dm~3) was obtained from a 350 g dm~3 glucose medium. The zeolite is believed to have acted as a pH regulator, maintaining the pH value around 3É7È3É8. Under these conditions cellular viability was preserved and metabolic activity was maintained. Thus all the glucose was consumed, and high ethanol productivity and concentration were obtained. Therefore, the addition of zeolite improved ethanol production from high concentrations of glucose by Saccharomyces bayanus.

## Abstract In this study, bioethanol production from steam‐exploded wheat straw using different process configurations was evaluated using two __Saccharomyces cerevisiae__ strains, F12 and Red Star. The strain F12 has been engineerically modified to allow xylose consumption as cereal straw contain
