## Abstract The first pilot‐scale factories for the production of bioethanol from lignocellulose have been installed, indicating that we are on the brink of overcoming most hurdles for an economically feasible process. When bioethanol is competitive as biofuel with fuels originating from petrochemi
The problem of dilute solvent concentration in butanolacetone fermentations can be solved by using reverse osmosis to dewater the fermentation liquor. Polyamide membranes have a potential application in a butanolacetone fermentation and exhibited rejection rates as high a s 98%. Optimum rejection of
