Extractive Ethanol Fermentation with Ethanol Recovery by Absorption in Open and Closed Systems by Kaio César da Silva Rodrigues, Ivan Ilich Kerbauy Veloso, Diego Andrade Lemos, Antonio José Gonçalves Cruz, Alberto Colli Badino

“…In the closed system, with CO₂ recirculation produced by fermentation, 280.0 g L⁻¹ of substrate was consumed, achieving ethanol production of 126.0 g L⁻¹, with an absorption recovery percentage of 98.3%, similar to that of industrial facilities that use a gas scrubber tower. Additionally, the overall process efficiency was close to that of conventional fermentation (0.448 g_ethanol g_substrate⁻¹). …”
