    摘要: Provided herein are compositions, methods, systems associated with propagation and fermentation, and co-products of biochemical production processes, for example, a DCO co-product resulting from converting oil containing grains into bio chemicals via fermentation in the presence of endogenous esterase. The DCO resulting from the processes exhibits lower metal ion content relative to a DCO obtained in the absence of endogenous fermentation with an esterase such as a lipase. The DCO is useful as a feedstock for the production of renewable diesel.

    摘要: The invention relates to a process for the production of ethanol comprising fermenting a (optionally liquefied) corn slurry under anaerobic conditions in the presence of a recombinant yeast; and recovering the ethanol, wherein said recombinant yeast functionally expresses a heterologous nucleic acid sequence encoding a glucoamylase having an amino acid sequence according to SEQ ID NO: 1 or which glucoamylase is a functional homologue thereof having a sequence identity of at least 80%, or which glucoamylase is a functional homologue which is derived, by way of one or more amino acid substitutions, deletions or insertions, from the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, and wherein the process comprises dosing a glucoamylase at a concentration of 0.05 g/L or less.
