Centrifugation is a fundamental step for the competitiveness of Brazilian ethanol plants, since it allows the mass of yeasts of interest to be propagated only once, and then reused by yeast recycling process, avoiding the sugar consumption for this purpose. The fermentation process in the mills is not a clean process from the asepsis aspects. In addition to the yeast of interest, there ar…
