About this document

Xylitol Production from Wheat Straw by azim_niazi is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document summarizes a study that evaluated the production of xylitol from wheat straw hydrolysate using the yeast Candida guilliermondii in a 5 L stirred tank reactor. The results showed that C. guilliermondii efficiently consumed xylose from the hydrolysate, with over 90% conversion to xylitol. The xylitol yield was 0.89 g xylitol per g xylose consumed and conversion efficiency was 97%. Small amounts of glucose, arabinose and acetic acid present in the hydrolysate did not interfere with xylose conversi
