Abstract
Potato peel waste (PPW) is a starchy by-product generated in great amounts during the industrial processing of potatoes. It can be used as a low cost alternative, and renewable feedstock for the production of second generation bioethanol. In order to intensify this process, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Ethanol Red®, a robust and thermotolerant yeast strain, was selected and two experimental designs and response surfaces assessment were conducted to enable very high gravity fermentations (VHGF) using PPW as feedstock. The first one focused on the optimization of the liquefaction and enzymatic hydrolysis stages, enabling a maximum ethanol concentration of 116.5 g/L and a yield of 80.4 % at 72 h of fermentation; whereas, the second one, focus on the optimization of the pre-saccharification and fermentation stages, which further increased process productivity, leading to a maximum ethanol concentration of 108.8 g/L and a yield of 75.1 % after 54 h of fermentation. These results allowed the definition of an intensified pre-saccharification and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (PSSF) process for ethanol production from PPW, resorting to short liquefaction and pre-saccharification times, 2 h and 10 h respectively, at an enzyme loading of 80 U/g PPW of Viscozyme and 5 UE/g PPW of SAN Super and a higher fermentation temperature of 34 °C due to the use of a thermotolerant yeast. Overall, with these conditions and solely from PPW without any supplementation, the outlined PSSF process allowed reaching a high ethanol concentration and yield (104.1 g/L and 71.9 %, respectively) standing at high productivities with only 54 h of fermentation.

Abstract
The use of more appropriate kinetic models can assist in improving ethanol fermentation under conditions of very high gravity (VHG) and high cell density (HCD), in order to obtain higher amounts of ethanol in the broth combined with high productivity. The aim of this study was to model fed-batch ethanol fermentation under VHG/HCD conditions, at different temperatures, considering three types of inhibition (substrate, ethanol, and cells). Fermentations were carried out using different temperatures (28 ≤ [Formula: see text] (°C) ≤ 34), inoculum sizes (50 ≤ [Formula: see text] (g L-1) ≤ 125), and substrate concentrations in the must (258 ≤ [Formula: see text] (g L-1) ≤ 436). In the proposed model, the cell inhibition power parameter varied with the temperature and inoculum size, while the cell yield coefficient varied with inoculum size and substrate concentration in the must. Hence, it was possible to propose correlations for the cell inhibition power parameter ([Formula: see text]) and for the cell yield coefficient ([Formula: see text]), as functions of the fermentation conditions. Simulations of fed-batch ethanol fermentations at different temperatures, under VHG/HCD conditions, were performed using the proposed correlations. Experimental validation showed that the model was able to accurately predict the dynamic behavior of the fermentations in terms of the concentrations of viable cells, total cells, ethanol, and substrate.

Abstract
Over the last decades, the constant growth of the world-wide industry has been leading to more and more concerns with its direct impact on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Resulting from that, rising efforts have been dedicated to a global transition from an oil-based industry to cleaner biotechnological processes. A specific example refers to the production of bioethanol to substitute the traditional transportation fuels. Bioethanol has been produced for decades now, mainly from energy crops, but more recently, also from lignocellulosic materials. Aiming to improve process economics, the fermentation of very high gravity (VHG) mediums has for long received considerable attention. Nowadays, with the growth of multi-waste valorization frameworks, VHG fermentation could be crucial for bioeconomy development. However, numerous obstacles remain. This work initially presents the main aspects of a VHG process, giving then special emphasis to some of the most important factors that traditionally affect the fermentation organism, such as nutrients depletion, osmotic stress, and ethanol toxicity. Afterwards, some factors that could possibly enable critical improvements in the future on VHG technologies are discussed. Special attention was given to the potential of the development of new fermentation organisms, nutritionally complete culture media, but also on alternative process conditions and configurations.

Abstract
Encapsulated microbes have been used for decades to produce commodities ranging from methyl ketone to beer. Encapsulated cells undergo limited replication, which enables them to more efficiently convert substrate to product than planktonic cells and which contributes to their stress resistance. To determine how encapsulated yeast supports long-term, repeated fed-batch ethanologenic fermentation, and whether different matrices influence that process, fermentation and indicators of matrix durability and cell viability were monitored in high-dextrose, fed-batch culture over 7 weeks. At most timepoints, ethanol yield (g/g) in encapsulated cultures exceeded that in planktonic cultures. And frequently, ethanol yield differed among the four matrices tested: sodium alginate crosslinked with Ca2+ and chitosan, sodium alginate crosslinked with Ca2+ , Protanal alginate crosslinked with Ca2+ and chitosan, Protanal alginate crosslinked with Ca2+ , with the last of these consistently demonstrating the highest values. Young's modulus and viscosity were higher for matrices crosslinked with chitosan over the first week; thereafter values for both parameters declined and were indistinguishable among treatments. Encapsulated cells exhibited greater heat shock tolerance at 50°C than planktonic cells in either stationary or exponential phase, with similar thermotolerance observed across all four matrix types. Altogether, these data demonstrate the feasibility of re-using encapsulated yeast to convert dextrose to ethanol over at least 7 weeks.

Abstract
The yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is the premier fungal cell factory exploited in industrial biotechnology. In particular, ethanol production by yeast fermentation represents the world's foremost biotechnological process, with beverage and fuel ethanol contributing significantly to many countries economic and energy sustainability. During industrial fermentation processes, yeast cells are subjected to several physical, chemical and biological stress factors that can detrimentally affect ethanol yields and overall production efficiency. These stresses include ethanol toxicity, osmostress, nutrient starvation, pH and temperature shock, as well as biotic stress due to contaminating microorganisms. Several cell physiological and genetic approaches to mitigate yeast stress during industrial fermentations can be undertaken, and such approaches will be discussed with reference to stress mitigation in yeasts employed in Brazilian bioethanol processes. This article will highlight the importance of furthering our understanding of key aspects of yeast stress physiology and the beneficial impact this can have more generally on enhancing industrial fungal bioprocesses.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to characterize yeasts isolated from the environment of artisanal cachaça production and brewer's spent grain-bearing in mind their further application in bioprocesses. METHODS AND RESULTS Cell morphology, growth and fermentative parameters, and karyotyping were employed for the selection and grouping of yeast strains. The results showed that from 134 yeast strains studied, 14·2% exhibited cells with snowflake morphology, which is not appropriate for bioethanol production. The fermentation in sugarcane syrup was carried out with 71 Saccharomyces cerevisiae, 19 Torulaspora delbrueckii, eight Wickerhamomyces anomalus, six Candida parapsilosis, five Pichia mashurica, three Candida intermedia, two Clavispora lusitaniae and one Candida aaseri. Among the most important ethanol-producing strains, T. delbrueckii LMQA BSG 7 and S. cerevisiae LMQA SNR 65 presented biomass yield, ethanol yield and productivity similar or higher than PE-2 and CAT-1 (bioethanol industrial strains). CONCLUSIONS This study showed a high potential for industrial application of the strains LMQA SNR 65 (S. cerevisiae) and LMQA BSG 7 (T. delbrueckii). It was found that the use of the chromosomal profile is not adequate to qualify yeasts concerning their technological performance. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study reported yeasts isolated from uncommon sources that present significant characteristics for potential application in bioprocesses.

Abstract
The feasibility of cellulase recycling in the scope of bioethanol production from recycled paper sludge (RPS), an inexpensive byproduct with around 39% of carbohydrates, is analyzed. RPS was easily converted and fermented by enzymes and cells, respectively. Final enzyme partition between solid and liquid phases was investigated, the solid-bound enzymes being efficiently recovered by alkaline washing. RPS hydrolysis and fermentation was conducted over four rounds, recycling the cellulases present in both fractions. A great overall enzyme stability was observed: 71, 64 and 100% of the initial Cel7A, Cel7B and β-glucosidase activities, respectively, were recovered. Even with only 30% of fresh enzymes added on the subsequent rounds, solid conversions of 92, 83 and 71% were achieved for the round 2, 3 and 4, respectively. This strategy enabled an enzyme saving around 53-60%, while can equally contribute to a 40% reduction in RPS disposal costs.

Abstract
Fermentation products can chaotropically disorder macromolecular systems and induce oxidative stress, thus inhibiting biofuel production. Recently, the chaotropic activities of ethanol, butanol and vanillin have been quantified (5.93, 37.4, 174kJ kg(-1)m(-1) respectively). Use of low temperatures and/or stabilizing (kosmotropic) substances, and other approaches, can reduce, neutralize or circumvent product-chaotropicity. However, there may be limits to the alcohol concentrations that cells can tolerate; e.g. for ethanol tolerance in the most robust Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains, these are close to both the solubility limit (<25%, w/v ethanol) and the water-activity limit of the most xerotolerant strains (0.880). Nevertheless, knowledge-based strategies to mitigate or neutralize chaotropicity could lead to major improvements in rates of product formation and yields, and also therefore in the economics of biofuel production.

Abstract
Abstract
The presence of toxic compounds derived from biomass pre-treatment in fermentation media represents an important drawback in second-generation bio-ethanol production technology and overcoming this inhibitory effect is one of the fundamental challenges to its industrial production. The aim of this study was to systematically identify, in industrial medium and at a genomic scale, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes required for simultaneous and maximal tolerance to key inhibitors of lignocellulosic fermentations. Based on the screening of EUROSCARF haploid mutant collection, 242 and 216 determinants of tolerance to inhibitory compounds present in industrial wheat straw hydrolysate (WSH) and in inhibitor-supplemented synthetic hydrolysate were identified, respectively. Genes associated to vitamin metabolism, mitochondrial and peroxisomal functions, ribosome biogenesis and microtubule biogenesis and dynamics are among the newly found determinants of WSH resistance. Moreover, PRS3, VMA8, ERG2, RAV1 and RPB4 were confirmed as key genes on yeast tolerance and fermentation of industrial WSH.

Abstract
The search of robust microorganisms is essential to design sustainable processes of second generation bioethanol. Yeast strains isolated from industrial environments are generally recognised to present an increased stress tolerance but no specific information is available on their tolerance towards inhibitors that come from the pretreatment of lignocellulosic materials. In this work, a strategy for the selection of different yeasts using hydrothermal hydrolysate from Eucalyptus globulus wood, containing different concentrations of inhibitors, was developed. Ten Saccharomyces cerevisiae and four Kluyveromyces marxianus strains isolated from industrial environments and four laboratory background strains were evaluated. Interestingly, a correlation between final ethanol titer and percentage of furfural detoxification was observed. The results presented here highlight industrial distillery environments as a remarkable source of efficient yeast strains for lignocellulosic fermentation processes. Selected strains were able to resourcefully degrade furfural and HMF inhibitors, producing 0.8g ethanol/Lh corresponding to 94% of the theoretical yield.

Abstract
In this work, a kinetic model for ethanol fermentation from sugarcane bagasse enzymatic hydrolysate concentrated with molasses was developed. A model previously developed for fermentation of pure molasses was modified by the inclusion of a new term for acetic acid inhibition on microorganism growth rate and the kinetic parameters were estimated as functions of temperature. The influence of the hydrolysate on the kinetic parameters is analyzed by comparing with the parameters from fermentation of pure molasses. The impact of cells recycling in the kinetic parameters is also evaluated, as well as on the ethanol yield and productivity. The model developed described accurately most of the fermentations performed in several successive batches for temperatures from 30 to 38°C.

Plasmid-mediate transfer of FLO1 into industrial Saccharomyces cerevisiae PE-2 strain creates a strain useful for repeat-batch fermentations involving flocculation-sedimentation.

Abstract
The flocculation gene FLO1 was transferred into the robust industrial strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae PE-2 by the lithium acetate method. The recombinant strain showed a fermentation performance similar to that of the parental strain. In 10 repeat-batch cultivations in VHG medium with 345 g glucose/L and cell recycling by flocculation-sedimentation, an average final ethanol concentration of 142 g/L and an ethanol productivity of 2.86 g/L/h were achieved. Due to the flocculent nature of the recombinant strain it is possible to reduce the ethanol production cost because of lower centrifugation and distillation costs.
