Assessment of Hybrid Processes for Bio-Butanol Purification Applying Process Simulation

Bio-butanol production based on ABE (acetone-butanol-ethanol) fermentation is facing increasing interest as a transport fuel, since it offers significant advantages to other bio-fuels. However, to ensure an economic operation two bottlenecks has to be overcome: (1) high cost of the fermentation subs...
