- Please answer the following correctly: m) Tannins are produced by many woody plants and have antimicrobial properties that can interfere with fermentation in the production of biofuels. Are tannin extracts effective in inhibiting yeast fermentation?arrow_forwardYou are talking with a winemaker about yeast. "I know that yeast can survive under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions," he says, "but what I don't understand is why they seem to need so much more sugar under anaerobic conditions. I think they gobble a hundred times as much sugar." Can you explain to him why yeast might need more sugar under anaerobic conditions than under aerobic conditions? Is his estimation of a hundred times as much sugar reasonable?arrow_forwardIt is difficult to obtain an alcoholic beverage with more than 15% alcohol without distillation (yeast are unable to make more alcohol than this). Why? And what does this imply about why yeast make alcohol during fermentation?arrow_forward
- Switchgrass is used for ethanol production. The composition of the switchgrass is 37% cellulose, 24% xylan, 3% galactan, 4% arabinan, 20% lignin, 7% extractives, and 5% ash. A dilute acid pretreatment method is applied to the switchgrass before enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. The pretreatment hydrolyzes 10% hexosan and 90% pentosan into monomeric sugars. Approximately 30% of the hydrolyzed pentoses further react & are decomposed to furfural. Assume that there is no decomposition of the hydrolyzed hexoses. Further Assume that lignin, extractives, and ash do not change during the pretreatment. • How much of each lignocellulosic sugar (glucose, xylose, galactose, and arabinose) is produced when pretreating 1,000 kg (dry matter) switchgrass? How much furfural is formed? • Is water consumed or produced in these pretreatment hydrolysis and dehydration reactions? How much in each?arrow_forwardKombucha requires two fermentation steps. The first one is partly aerobic and partly anaerobic. The aerobic growth occurs because the kombucha is allowed to brew exposed to oxygen. Where is the anaerobic growth occurring in the first fermentation step? The second fermentation step is the step in which we add the kombucha to a sealed bottle therefore I'm confused as to where it can occur before we seal it.arrow_forwardFermentation will occur under anaerobic conditions only Sometimes the condition is temporary, resulting in lactic acid fermentation Once an oxygen debt has been repaid, fermentation will stop under anoxic conditions only Sometimes the condition is temporary, resulting in lactic acid fermentation Once an oxygen debt has been repaid, fermentation will stop under anoxic or anaerobic conditions Sometimes the condition is temporary, resulting in lactic acid fermentation Once an oxygen debt has been repaid, fermentation will stop under anoxic or anaerobic conditions Sometimes the condition is permanent, resulting in lactic acid fermentationarrow_forward
