Notes:
The influence of aeration, stirring conditions, and the addition of furfural on the yield and productivity of furfural - furfuryl alcohol bioconversion by the yeast strain Saccharomyces cerevisiae 354 was investigated.The formation of furfuryl alcohol increases up to 32 hours of incubation corresponding to the addition of furfural, while the cell growth essentially ceased at 20 hours.The conversion of furfural into furfuryl alcohol under anaerobic and low aeration conditions was 70% and the productivity 0.5g · 1-1 · h-1, when the final concentrationof of furfural amounted to 35 g · 1-1.
