    Abstract:
    A novel two-stage fermentation strategy was applied to produce xylitol and ethanol from the whole acid-pretreated corn cob slurry. The acid-pretreated corn cob was used without filtration and detoxification by the two-stage fermentation with the robust Kluyveromyces marxianus CICC 1727-5. In the first stage, xylose in the slurry after dilute acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass was used to produce xylitol under micro-aeration conditions. In the second stage, simultaneous saccharification fermentation was carried out, and the ethanol was produced from glucose releasing from the solid. Important parameters, such as aeration rate, cellulase loading during xylose utilization and SSF fermentation were studied for best performance. The two-stage fermentation strategy removed the inhibition of glucose on xylose, and little xylose was left in the fermentation broth. Under the optimized condition, the maximum ethanol and xylitol concentration were 52 g/L and 24.2 g/L corresponding to the yield of 0.41 g/g and 0.82 g/g, respectively.
