a method for removing at least a portion of at least one microbial growth inhibitor and / or microbial product bioproduction from a composition comprising said at least one inhibitor and at least one compound suitable for use as a carbon source in microbial fermentation, conditioned composition, is a method for the production of a bioproduct

摘要

Methods are provided for conditioning an inhibitor-containing composition, such as a cellulosic biomass hydrolysate, to remove inhibitors of microbial growth and/or product production. The methods include precipitation of inhibitors by formation of complexes with metal salts, such as aluminum sulfate and ferric chloride.
