Cassava Roots: Perspectives of a Traditional Staple for Bio-solvents Production
Original language description
The culture media prepared from mashed cassava and cassava starch were used to test their convertibility into organic solvents such as acetone, butanol, and ethanol. Fermentation was carried out by Clostridium acetobutylicum DSM 1731. Two culture media were used: the first one made with cassava starch (M1), and the second one with mashed fresh cassava roots (M2). The culture media were supplemented with organic and inorganic nutrients. The maximum butanol concentration in the medium M1 was 12.3 g/l in 96 h of fermentation. Even when the fermentation in medium M2 was a little lower (with 11.4 g/l ), it provided savings on the nutrient sup-ply since it was done without the addition of minerals and organic substances.
