Abstract

The fermentation characteristics of one yeast strain suitable to alcohol fermentation by sugar cane juice medium including resistance to alcohol,sugar and acid,were investigated in this paper.The optimization of fermentation conditions for immobilized yeast cells in the porous foamed ceramics,were carried out on fermentation temperature,pH value and brix of fermentation liquor.The results indicated that this yeast could tolerate 12% alcohol,low pH(2.5)and 45% sugar.The highest alcohol concentration was up to 13.53%(v/v)with initial pH(4.5)and brix(18)at 28℃.

Key words: ceramics; immobilized; yeast; alcohol
