Abstract

|
|
|
The energy for cooking starch prior to saccharification could be saved by fermenting raw starch into ethanol using Aspergillus niger koji of wheat bran. Optimum cultivation time to produce glucoamylase was 4 days in wheat bran medium. The rate of saccharification from uncooked corn starch were optimum at pH 3.3 and 40-50℃. Corn and sweet potato starch were saccharified more efficiently by wheat bran koji than other tested starch sources. 5 days of fermentation were required for optimum yield of ethanol using a mixture of AspergiUus niger koji and dried yeast. Final ethanol yields from raw corn, sweet potato, and rice starch with agitation at the rate of 100 rpm were about 95% at 30℃.
