Abstract

Sulphuric acid whey filtrate has been shown to be a useful substrate for the production of n-butanol by fermentation. Using whey filtrate supplemented with 0.5% yeast extract, yields of 1.5%(w/v) n-butanol have been obtained. The ratio of butanol:acetone:ethanol products approximates 10:1:1.
