Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for reducing and/or preventing an increase in lactic acid levels in a fermentation product production process, such as especially ethanol production, wherein a lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) or an enzyme composition comprising an LPMO is added before or during saccharification and/or fermentation, or before or during propagation, to reduce and/or prevent an increase in lactic acid levels.
