Introducton The nterest n bofuels has ncreased markedly n recent years as they are envronmentally frendly and offer a mechansm to reduce relance on ol. One of the promsng bofuels s ethanol, whch can be derved from renewable sources such as lgnocellulosc waste-materals. Ethanol s a much cleaner fuel than gasolne, reducng CO levels by 25%-30% and dramatcally reducng emssons of hydrocarbons, a major contrbutor to the depleton of the ozone layer. Ethanol blends ncreasngly used worldwde as they

As long ago as 2002 more than 10% of all gasolne sold n the US contaned ethanol. Recent US legslaton has called for a sx fold ncrease n the use of ethanol to 136 bllon L per year by The model used n ths paper was developed by Jarzebsk [1] to explan oscllatons observed durng the contnuous producton of ethanol usng cultures of saccharomyces cerevsae. Ths extended an earler model proposed by Ghommdh et al. [2] whch accounted for oscllatons observed durng contnuous fermentaton usng Zymononas mobls. Features of the model are descrbed further n Secton 2.1. Jarzebsk estmated bochemcal parameter values for ths model usng laboratory data obtaned from the contnuous fermentaton of sugar-cane molasses at a temperature of 37 C reported by Perego et al. (1985) [3]. The behavour of ths model n a sngle reactor was nvestgated n Ref. [4]. The performance ncrease n yeld of ethanol n a cascade of upto three reactors was nvestgated n Ref. [5]. The mprovement n ethanol productvty that can be acheved by usng a reactor cascade of up to gve reactors was nvestgated n Ref. [6]. Other models for ethanol producton from renewable sources ncludes Refs. [7, 8]. The emphass n ths paper s to compare the productvty that can be obtaned n a sngle reactor aganst that obtaned nboth a sngle reactor and a two-reactor cascade employng a centrfuge to recover cell mass. For the reactor cascade, the authors consder a confguraton n whch the exst stream from a reactor s recycled nto the nfluent stream nto the same reactor. 2. Model Equatons 2.1 Bochemcal Model The authors use the bochemcal mechansm for the producton of ethanol gven n Ref. [1]. The cell populatons are broken nto three groups: vable cells ( X v ), non-vable cells ( X nv ) and dead cells ( X d ). Non-vable cells are non-growng, but retan the ablty to produce ethanol. The bologcal reactons are: S P; Xv 2Xv; Xv X nv; Xv X d ; X nv X d. where, S and P represent the substrate and ethanol respectvely. The reacton rates for these processes, whch are gven n Secton 2.2, nclude both substrate and product nhbton. The second reacton ( X 2X ) denotes vable cell dvson. v v 2.2 Governng Equatons The model equatons for a n reactor cascade wth recycle around each reactor are gven by: 1 1 dxv, V F R 1 Xv, 1 R Xv, V v, nv, d, Xv, dt 1 1, 1 1 nv nv, nv, v, d nv, dxnv, V F R X R X V X X dt 1 1, 1 1 d d, d v, nv, dxd, V F R X R X V X X dt dp v, X v, V FP 1 RV mpx nv, dt Yxp ds v, X v, V FS1 SV m' s X nv, dt Yxs (1) (2) (3) (4) (5)

(4) and (5)) do not appear n Eq. (2) as ths process does not consume or produce non-vable cells.

For a sngle reactor and a double reactor cascade, the authors have n 1 and n 2, respectvely. 3. Results Fg. 1 shows the productvty of a sngle reactor wthout recycle as a functon of the resdence tme.

When the resdence tme s below 4.12 h the washout soluton, where S S0, P 0, X j 0 s stable. The optmal productvty s -1-1 Pr 3.80 gl h whch occurs at a resdence tme 7.47 h. Although the maxmum ethanol concentraton s gven by -1 P gl when h the productvty obtaned at ths resdence tme s only -1 Pr 3.25 gl, about 15% less than the maxmum value. The authors now consder a sngle reactor employng a centrfuge to recycle bomass nto the feed stream. The performance of the centrfuge s charactersed by a sngle number, the recycle parameter, whch takes values rangng from R 1 0 representng operaton wthout a centrfuge, to R 1 1, a perfect centrfuge n whch all the bomass s recycled. Fg. 2 shows how the maxmum productvty of the reactor changed as the recycle parameter s vared. To obtan ths fgure the value of the recycle parameter s fxed. The varaton of the reactor productvty as a functon of the resdence tme s determned and the correspondng maxmum value selected. The performance of the reactor ncreases slowly at frst.

Ths result s unrealstc and reflects the fact that n ths lmt the steady-state substrate concentraton becomes ndependent of the resdence

Ths unphyscal result ndcates that the bochemcal model s no longer realstc n ths lmt. Fg. 3 shows the productvty as a functon of the resdence tme for both a sngle reactor and a double reactor-cascade (only stable solutons have been plotted). Whereas the washout soluton s stable n a sngle reactor wthout recycle when 0 t (hr) 4.12 n a double reactor cascade wthout recycle t s stable when 0 t (hr) It s evdent that for most values of the resdence tme, the productvty from a sngle reactor outperforms that from a double reactor cascade. And ndeed the optmal productvty n the sngle reactor, Pr 1 = 3.80 gl -1 h -1 at the resdence 7.47 h, s margnally superor to the optmal productvty n the double reactor cascade, Pr 2 = 3.77 gl -1 h -1 at the resdence tme 10.6 h. Thus n the absence of recycle the sngle reactor outperforms the double reactor wth a feed concentraton S 0 = 100 gl -1. Fg. 4 showed the varaton n the maxmum productvty as a functon of the recycle parameter for three reactor confguratons. These are: a sngle reactor wth a centrfuge (lne a); a double-reactor cascade wth a centrfuge operatng around the frst reactor (lne b) and a double-reactor cascade wth a centrfuge operatng around the second reactor (lne c) Total resdence tme (hours) Fg. 3 Steady-state productvty as a functon of the resdence tme for a sngle reactor (a) and a double reactor cascade; (b) In both cases there s no recycle.

Parameter value: feed substrate concentraton, S 0 = 100 gl -1. Parameter values: (b) R 2 0, R 1 as specfed; (c) R 1 0, R 2 as specfed. It s seen that the reactor cascade wth the centrfuge placed around the frst reactor outperforms the reactor cascade wth the centrfuge placed around the second reactor. However, the sngle reactor wth a centrfuge outperforms both reactor cascade confguratons. Hence, when the nflow substrate concentraton s S 0 = 100 gl -1, the best reactor confguraton s the sngle reactor. In Fg. 5, the feed concentraton has been ncreased to S 0 = 120 gl -1. The authors note two mportant dfferences between ths fgure and Fg. 4. Frstly, t s observed that although the productvty n the cascade (a) (b) (c)

Secondly, t s seen that for low values of the recycle parameter the productvty obtaned from a double reactor cascade wth a centrfuge s hgher than that acheved by a sngle reactor wth a centrfuge. However, the latter combnaton s superor for hgher valued of the recycle parameter. The value of the recycle parameter at whch ths transton occurs s approxmately R Conclusons Recycle parameter 1 In ths paper, the authors have nvestgated the productvty of ethanol producton through contnuous fermentaton n a sngle tank and n a cascade of two reactors. In partcular, the authors have nvestgated the ncrease n productvty that s obtaned when the reactor confguraton contans a centrfuge. For the double reactor cascade t has been assumed that the centrfuge recycles bomass from the effluent stream of reactor ( = 1, 2), nto the nfluent stream of reactor. For all three confguratons consdered the effect of the centrfuge can be charactersed by a sngle number, the recycle parameter R. In all cases, the authors treated the total resdence tme as the prmary bfurcaton parameter and determned the value of the total resdence tme whch maxmsed the productvty of the reactor confguraton. It s shown that at feed concentratons S 0 = 100 gl -1 and S 0 = 120 gl -1 that the cascade confguraton wth the centrfuge placed around the frst reactor was superor to that wth the centrfuge paced around the second reactor. However, at the hgher feed concentraton the dfference was slght. At the lower feed concentraton the performance of the sngle reactor confguraton was found to be superor to that of ether cascade. At the hgher feed concentraton the double reactor cascade for low values of the recycle parameter, approxmately for R 0. 3, but at hgher values of the recycle parameter the sngle reactor was agan the best desgn. Thus, the authors conclude that more,.e., an ncreased number of reactors, s not always better when t comes to maxmsng the reactor productvty. The authors are currently extendng the work reported her by consderng hgher feed concentratons. The bochemcal parameters n ths model were estmated by Jarzebsk [1] from expermental data obtaned by Perego et al. [3]. Unless otherwse stated, the parameter values the authors use n ths study are those gven n Ref. [1]: µ max = 0.25 h -1, µ max = 0.21 h -1, P c = 70 gl -1, P c = 130 gl -1, m p = 2.6 h -1, m s = 4.42 h -1, Y (x p) = 0.235, Y (x s) = and K 1 = K 2 = 3 gl -1.
