摘要: In situ separation of ethanol during batch fermentation with CO_2 stripping and activated carbon adsorption was studied. The higher initial glucose concentration and fermentation rate were reached due to the elimination of ethanol inhibition on the cell growth by means of CO_2 stripping. The stripped ethanol vapor was selectively adsorbed by an activated carbon column. The conde(?)sate desorbed from the adsorption column can be higher than 50% by weight. Ar unstructured model was used to simulate the experimental data satisfactorily.
