TI - Production of bioethanol from steam-flaked sorghum and maize KW - STEAM-FLAKING KW - SORGHUM KW - MAIZE KW - ETHANOL N2 - The aim was to study the effect of steam-flaking of sorghum and maize on bioethanol production and the performance of their ground meals during liquefaction, saccharification and yeast fermentation. A bifactorial experiment with a level of confidence of P< 0.05 was designed to study differences between sorghum and maize and the effectiveness of steam-flaking. Grains were steam-flaked to increase starch bioavailability and disrupt the protein matrix that envelopes starch granules. The steam-flaked sorghum had significantly higher and faster starch hydrolysis compared to the regular kernel during liquefaction. This hydrolysate contained about 33 UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1enjS1J8GdwDrjiEJwcKsruVUgreTGC2f/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
