Abstract


Abstract: Among bioenergetic processes, fermentation of effluents from agricultural by-products is a promising alternative for energy recovery of discharges. The biofuels produced can be exploited as additives for conventional fuels. Moreover, they can be produced from agricultural by-products rich in carbohydrates. The aim of our work is to produce bioethanol from a mixture of agricultural feedstocks, that is: the by-products of grapes and dates, by using the yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae in a cylindrical bioreactor with a capacity of 5 L. The effect of aeration on bioethanol yield has been studied. Different parameters have been monitored such as: bioethanol concentration, total sugar, ammoniacal nitrogen, pH, yeast viability, etc. It was found a high bioethanol concentration for flow rate 50 mL/min.  In such case, the bioethanol concentration reached it was about 160 g/L which is higher in comparison to that obtained for a flow rate of 100 mL / min or in anaerobic which is 38 g/L and 112 g/L, respectively.

Résumé: Parmi les procédés bioénergétiques, la fermentation des effluents issus de sous-produits agricoles est une alternative prometteuse à la valorisation énergétique des rejets. Les biocarburants produits peuvent être exploités comme additifs aux carburants conventionnels. De plus, ils peuvent être produits à partir de sous-produits agricoles riches en glucides. Le but de notre travail consiste à produire du bioéthanol à partir de matières premières agricoles à savoir : les sous-produits de dattes et de raisins, et ce en présence de la levure Saccharomyces cerevisiae dans un bioréacteur cylindrique de capacité 5 L. L'effet de l'aération sur le rendement en bioéthanol (g/g de sucre) a été étudié. Différents paramètres ont été suivis tels que : la concentration en bioéthanol, la croissance de la levure, les sucres totaux, l’azote ammoniacal et le pH. Une production élevée en bioéthanol a été trouvée pour un débit d’air de 50 mL/min. Dans ce cas, la concentration en bioéthanol atteinte est de 160 g/L qui est élevée par comparaison à celle obtenue pour un débit de 100 mL/min ou en anaérobie qui est de 38 g/L et 112 g/L, respectivement.
