Optimization of the Performance of Packed Bed Fermentor with Immobilized Zymomonas Mobilis for the Production of Fuel Alcohol

Heterogeneous compartmental model is used to optimize the performance of a packed bed fer-mentor with immobilized zymomonas mobilis for the production of fuel alcohol. The results indicate that the outlet ethanol concentrations have maximum values that decreased with increasing feed sugar concentrat...
