## Abstract A twoβstage design approach is introduced to determine the optimal feed rate, fed glucose concentration and fermentation time to maximize ethanol productivity by using __Saccharomyces diastaticus__ LORRE 316. The first stage is applied to determine a kinetic model using batch timeβserie
The conversion of starch from unhydrolyzed cassava flour to ethanol by a pure culture of Endomycopsis fibdigera and by a co-culture of this amylolytic yeast and the bacterium Zymmonas mobilis was studied. The best overall results were obtained using the mixed culture. After 96 h of fermentation of
