Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesTemperature Optimization for Bioethanol Production from Corn Cobs Using Mixed Yeast StrainsClarence S. Yah, Sunny E. Iyuke, Emmanuel I. Unuabonah et al.Problem statement: Dilute sulphuric acid and enzymatic hydrolysis methods were used for sugar extraction. Xylose and glucose sugars were obtained from corn cobs. Approach: Acid hydrolysis of corn cobs gave higher amount of sugars than enzymatic hydrolysis. Results: The results showed that optimal temperature and time for sugar fermentation were approximately 25°C and 50 h by two yeast strains (S. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,339 accessesView PDF Cite
