Abstract:
The influence of complexing agents on bio-ethanol production from molasses has been investigated. The agents are nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) and 8-hydroxyquinoline. They were introduced during the inoculation, propagation and fermentation stages. The increase was between 0.5-1.0% v/v ethanol for NTA and 2.9-3.8% v/v ethanol for 8-hydroxyquinoline. These results as well as the mode of action of the agents were discussed.
