Abstract: | Rye, triticale, and barley were evaluated as starch feedstock to replace wheat for ethanol production. Preprocessing of grain
by abrasion on a Satake mill reduced fiber and increased starch concentrations in feedstock for fermentations. Higher concentrations
of starch in flours from preprocessed cereal grains would increase plant throughput by 8–23% since more starch is processed
in the same weight of feedstock. Increased concentrations of starch for fermentation resulted in higher concentrations of
ethanol in beer. Energy requirements to produce one L of ethanol from preprocessed grains were reduced, the natural gas by
3.5–11.4%, whereas power consumption was reduced by 5.2–15.6%. |
