Abstract:
Methods are disclosed for the production of high concentrations of ethanol from biomass using Zymomonas as the ethanologen. Zymomonas is grown under conditions of low impeller agitation with high concentration of insoluble solids in a saccharification-fermentation mixture during a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation reaction for the production of high concentrations of ethanol.
