More Information
Summary:The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for producing and recovering at least one fermentation product from a fermentation process using a C1-containing gas delivered to a fermentation bioreactor that produces a fermentation broth, the fermentation broth comprises at least one of a first product stream comprising ethanol and water or a second product stream comprising ethanol, acetone and water or a third product stream comprising ethanol, acetone, isopropanol and water. The product is recovered by using a shared product recovery system. In particular, the shared product recovery system selectively recovers at least one product-rich stream selected from the group consisting of an ethanol-rich stream, an acetone-rich stream, an isopropanol-rich stream, or a combination thereof. The shared product recovery system comprises at least one of a vacuum distillation unit, a rectification unit, an acetone removal unit, a drying unit, an ethanol-acetone separation unit, an extractive distillation unit
