The fermentation was performed by inoculating the seed solution (containing corncob powder and yeast) and cellulase into the synchronous saccharification fermentation medium. Single-factor experiments and orthogonal experiments were performed, and the optimal processing conditions were obtained based on the characterizations of alcohol content and sensory evaluation. The results show that the alcohol content and sensory evaluation of the drink can reach 6.1 vol.% and 92, respectively, when the dosage of cellulase, inoculum concentration of yeast, the fermentation temperature and the fermentation time are 15 U/g, 7%, 32℃ and 84 h, respectively.展开更多

The experimental results were assessed in terms of total organic carbon（TOC） reduction. The operational and reaction conditions affecting the efficiencies of TOC removal such as initial pH value, H2O2 concentration, catalyst loading and UV power were studied. The results show that TOC is reduced from 347.6 mg/L to 10.8 mg/L, color is changed from 500 units to 0 under the conditions as follows： initial pH value 6. 0, H2O2 concentration of 1. 000 g/L, catalyst loading of 5 g/L, reaction duration of 120 rain and reaction temperature of 30 ℃. The irradiated Ce-Fe/Al2O3 catalyst was complexed with 1,10-phenanthroline and then it was subjected to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy to confirm the formation of Fe（Ⅱ） in the solid state. Heterogeneous photo-Fenton reaction proves to be effective for the treatment of yeast wastewater.展开更多

Suppositions of cell negative effect on and glucose inhibition in specific growth rate and glycerol assumption for energy maintenance were made. Based on the suppositions, a set of unstructured kinetic models including cell groWth, glucose consumption and glycerol accumulation rate was proposed. To avoid the significant decrease of produced glyccerol in the latter fermentation stage, the fermentation was suggested to be ended when the concentration ratio of glycerol to glucose is close to 7.展开更多

The count of Candida tropicalis could reach 137.96× 10^9 cfu·g^-1, the count of Saccharomyces cerevisia could reach 134.62× 10^9 cfu·g^-1 the best liquid fermentation condition for cell-wall broken was 50℃ for 28 h, the rate of cell-wall broken could reach 80% at least; the rate of vitamin loss in yeast could be the minimun, the loss rate of vitamin B6 in Candida tropicalis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae was 8.71% and 19.54% respectively, the loss rate of vitamin B2 was 19.39% and 13.18%, respectively, and the loss rate of vitamin B6 was 6.3% and 3.04%, respectively.展开更多
