Fermentation is triggered by lactic acid bacteria — or lactobacilli — and yeasts, which use the carbohydrate fuels from the cereal grains to produce ethanol (alcohol), carbon dioxide, lactic acid and acetic acid.
A pioneer of immunization and food sterilization, Pasteur (below) also experimentally proved in the 1850s that yeasts drove the fermentation process, gobbling sugars to produce ethanol, carbon dioxide and a host of other compounds essential to beer.
At MIT, scientists have engineered a new yeast strain that can survive in high levels of sugar and ethanol, producing 50 percent more ethanol than its natural cousins.
In one case, turning on and off a blue light caused the special yeast to alternate between producing ethanol, a product of normal fermentation, and isobutanol, a chemical that normally would kill yeast at sufficiently high concentration.
First the yeast consume the sugar and produce CO2 & ethanol, then the bacteria consume the ethanol and produce healthy acids.
The bacteria and yeast in the grains utilize sugar to produce lactic acid, carbon dioxide and a small amount of ethanol.
As grapes reach their peak of ripeness in the fall, they may swell in size and burst, thereby allowing the sugars in the juice to be exposed to yeasts growing on the skins and to produce carbon dioxide and ethanol (48).
As the yeast grow, they produce ethanol and carbon dioxide.
A key advantage of using yeast for cellulosic ethanol production is their ability to work over a broad temperature (< 44oC) and pH (3.0 — 8.0) range to produce large amounts of sugar.
Dr. Hughes also reported ongoing work to achieve stable expression of a biocatalyst in yeast, which enables the fungi to produce biodiesel after ethanol production has completed.
Amyris, which is based in Emeryville, CA, uses the tools of a new field called synthetic biology to reengineer microbes, including yeast that can ferment sugar to produce hydrocarbons instead of ethanol.
Not biodiesel, conventional diesel fuel: The plant will have a capacity of more than 10,000 gallons per year and will, using synthetic biology, reengineer microbes so that yeast can ferment sugar to produce hydrocarbons instead of ethanol.
