Industrial innovations for tomorrow: Advances in industrial energy-efficiency technologies. New bioreactor can produce high-value chemicals from food processing wastes
Two large-scale ICRS pilot plants are being operated at Midwestern dairies. The Purdue research has focused on using the ICRS to produce ethanol from cheese whey. In this application, the cells of the ICRS are lactose-utilizing yeasts absorbed to a fibrous absorbent packing matrix that converts lactose to ethanol and carbon dioxide.
