摘要：

The production of acetone, normal butanol, and ethanol by anaerobic fermentation using Clostridium actetobutylicium, i.e., the Weizmann process, is a well-known technology. However, due to economic considerations, commercial scale acetone/butanol/ethanol (ABE) fermentations have been limited in recent times. However, continued progress in moderating inhibitory effects of butanol on the fermentation and improving the energy efficiency of butanol recovery could help to improve the economic feasibility of an acetone/butanol/ethanol process. A large increase in n-butanol demand could result if this alcohol were found to be a suitable and economic fuel additive in the context of clean air benefits, and its use were to develop on even a modest basis.
