Abstract:
In order to enhance utilization efficiency of tobacco waste,alcohol was produced by sugar fermentation method using tobacco stems of tobacco production.Influence factors of alcohol yield were studied,such as the amount of yeast,fermentation time and temperature.Alcohol content was tested with analysis method of national standards.The results showed that the optimum technology was as follow:sugar water solution of removing nicotine,raw materials/yeast was 50/1(
w/w), fermentation temperature was 20 ℃ and time was 24 d.On this condition,alcohol yield was 15%.Alcohol conforms to standard of the edible alcohol.
