Improved ethanol fermentation of a yeast mutant by C-12 ion beam irradiation
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevsiea YY was irradiated with 100 MeV/u 12C6+ ion beams.After screening
we obtained the mutant strain C03A of high ethanol yield.The influence of fermentation temperature
pH and concentration of sugar on ethanol fermentation were studied.The range analysis and analysis of variance were applied for the result of orthogonal experiments.The optimal ethanol fermentation conditions are:fermentation temperature 35°C
pH value 5.0
and sugar concentration 24%.The results of fermentation in the 10 L bioreactor showed that the ethanol fermentation of the mutant strain could be completed in 36 hours
the production of ethanol was to 13.2%(V/V)
which means 12 hours faster and 1.6%(V /V) ethanol yield higher than original strain.
