Fermentation maintenance coefficients

Tables 1 and 2 list the complete set of mass balance equations for the hydrolysis model and the SSF model. Dilution due to cell growth was not included in the model, nor was a cell mass balance. As cells were grown to maximal exponential phase before the batch runs and the fermentation was 90% complete in 5 h or less, any maintenance or growth requirements were neglected, and yield coefficients were used to determine the conversion yield for each reaction rate.
