Abstract

Very high gravity (VHG) media with finger millet (ragi) flour were prepared and fermented with ethanol tolerant yeast, Saccharomyces bayanus. Maximum ethanol concentration of 15.6% (v/v) was obtained in the nutrients supplemented medium. About 86.6% fermentation efficiency was obtained. The supplementation of  peptone and yeast extract led to increase in the ethanol productivity and yeast viable cell concentration. Separate hydrolysis of  the finger millet mash followed by fermentation was found to be better for ethanol production than simultaneous saccharification and fermentation.

Keywords: ethanol, very high gravity medium, finger millet flour, Saccharomyces bayanus
