Ethanol Production From Pretreated Potato Residues By Co-fermentation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia stipitis: Harnessing Large Language Models for Process Optimization

The need for alternative, renewable, and sustainable energy sources, driven by climate change and the detrimental effects of fossil fuel consumption, necessitates innovative solutions. Thus, this study investigates the optimization of ethanol yields from pretreated potato residues, using a co-culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia stipitis. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was initially used to model the co-fermentation process, examining solid loading (5–20%), inoculation ratio (1—4),
