Fuel ethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass corn stover was investigated. Compared with acid pretreatment and ammonia steeping pretreatment, alkali pretreatment with 2% NaOH markedly enhanced lignin removal and thereby improved the enzymatic hydrolysis yield to 81.2% by 48 h. Fed-batch hydrolysis was started with a batch hydrolysis containing 80 g/l substrate, with cellulosic residue added at 6 and 12 h twice to get a final substrate concentration of 110 g/l. After 72 h of hydrolysis, the reducing sugar concentration reached 89.5 g/l with a hydrolysis yield of 83.3%. Further fermentation of the cellulosic hydrolysate containing 56.7 g/l glucose and 23.6 g/l xylose was performed using a recombinant yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae ZU-10, and 36.3 g/l ethanol was produced within 72 h. The research results are meaningful in fuel ethanol production from renewable lignocellulosic biomass.

ABSTRACT A four-step flavanone biosynthetic pathway was constructed and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The recombinant yeast strain was fed with phenylpropanoid acids and produced the flavanones naringenin and pinocembrin 62 and 22 times more efficiently compared to previously reported recombinant prokaryotic strains. Microbial biosynthesis of the flavanone eriodictyol was also achieved.
