Both Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast and Zymomonas mobilis bacteria produce ethanol from glucose under anaerobic conditions without external electron acceptors. The biomass yield from glucose is 0.11 g g-1 for yeast and 0.05 g g-I for Z. mobilis. In both cases the nitrogen source is NH 3. Both cell compositions are represented by the formula CH 1.800.5N0.2. What is the yield of ethanol from glucose by Zymomonas mobilis bacteria?
