e0“Omitting the rinsing step after alkaline pretreatment increased ethanol concentration by 23% (95% CI 15.4–30.1%) but slightly reduced fermentation efficiency (6.11%; 95% CI 3.48–8.74%), except for S 160”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Sewage sludge fertilization increased cellulose content of Jerusalem artichoke biomass by 14% compared with the unfertilized control.
- Intervention effect Mineral fertilization had a negligible effect on cellulose content of Jerusalem artichoke biomass compared with the unfertilized control.
- Intervention effect The highest ethanol concentration, 1.87% v/v, was obtained with the S 160 treatment.
- Intervention effect The highest ethanol productivity, 0.39 cm3 A100 dm-3 h-1, was obtained with the S 160 treatment.
- Intervention effect Shortening the SSF duration from 96 to 48 h further increased ethanol productivity.
- Intervention effect Shortening the SSF duration from 96 to 48 h only slightly decreased fermentation efficiency.
- Intervention effect Supplementing the fermentation medium with mineral salts or additional substrate further increased ethanol yield, with mineral salt addition more effective, especially for fertilized biomass.
