Abstract
For the economically feasible production of ethanol, utilization of SFW (saccharified food wastes) as substrate for synchronous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process was developed in this study. When 200 g of food wastes and 40 mL of enzyme ($amylase activity,\;3.0\;U/m{\ell}$) were reacted, production rate of reducing sugar was $5.84\;g/{\ell}{\cdot}h$, and consumption rate was $-3.88\;g/{\ell}{\cdot}h\;at\;35^{\circ}C$ So suitable condition of SSF was concluded at temperature of $35^{\circ}C$. Also, optimal enzyme concentration of SSF was concluded in $2.0\;U/m{\ell}$, at this condition, the production rate of reducing sugar was $4.80\;g/{\ell}{\cdot}h$ At SSF process, when 50 g of food wastes was supplied in 12 h interval, $64\;g/{\ell}$ of ethanol and 0.45 g-ethanol/g-reducing sugar in yield were obtained in 120 h fermentation. Thus, the technology of high yield of ethanol production using food wastes was confirmed. And semi-continuos SSF system for cutting off cost of enzymatic saccharification was developed in this study.
