Corn stover is an abundant raw material for fuel ethanol production. Finding out the appropriate process for ethanol production will be possible to achieve industrilization. Hydrothermal pretreatment (195°C,15min) and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) were adopted to produce ethanol from corn stover. The results showed that 86.5% of cellulose were remained in solid cake and most of hemicellulose were solubilized after pretreatment. The highest ethanol concentrationl of 12.12 g/ L was achieved at initial pH of 5.5,temperature 30°C and 130 rpm shaking rate with substrate concentration of 5%(w/v) by Pichia stipitis58376 after 192 h.The corresponding volumetric productivity were 0.065g/Lh .

Abstract Sweet potato medium containing 230.0 g•kg-1 liquefied starch was used for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) for fuel ethanol production. Glucose releasing rate was controlled by the initial addition of incremental glucoamylase. The increasing rates of glucose concentration display a positive relationship when glucoamylase is added in early stage (0 to 8 hours (h)). Serious cells growth inhibition occurred in the early stage when 1.0 g•kg-1 glucoamylase is added, whereas glucose providing limitation occurred in the batch with 0.2 g•kg-1 glucoamylase added in later stage (64 to 80 h). The optimum dosage of glucoamylase was 0.8 g•kg-1, where a final ethanol concentration of 118.2 g•kg-1 was attained within 72 h. The results of our study suggest cell growth inhibition and substrate providing limitation can be avoided simultaneously by adding a proper dosage of glucoamylase. It is indicated further that cells growth inhibition in early stage in the batch with 1.0 g•kg-1 glucoamylase added was due to the high increasing rate of initial glucose concentration, but not the high overall glucose concentration.

Corn stover was pretreated using different soaking conditions at mild temperature. Among the tested conditions, the best was 1% NaOH+8% NH4OH,50°C,48 h, Solid-to-liquid ratio 1:10. The results showed that soaking pretreatment achieved 63.6% delignification, retained the xylan and glucan. After enzymatic hydrolysis, conversion rates of xylan and glucan were 70.9% and 78.5%, respectively. The pretreated filtration re-soaking cause 52.7% xylan and 65.0% glucan conversion. NaOH+NH4OH treatment can be performed under mild conditions, gives a good buffering effect, low carbohydates degradation and extensive removal of lignin. Additionally, simultaneous saccharification and fermentation was conducted with pretreated corn stover to assess the ethanol production. For the whole process, 0.15g ethanol /g corn stover was achieved using Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y5, and 0.19g ethanol /g corn stover when using Pichia stipitis.
