High gravity fermentation of softwood derived sugar streams
For a biochemically based biomass-to-ethanol process, one of the advantages of using softwoods as the substrate is the predominance of hexose sugars, which means that most of the sugars should be readily fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, one of the biggest challenges with fermenting so...
