My name is Maitry Mistry, and I am currently a grade 8 student in Winnipeg, MB. This is my second year doing a science fair project. In the 2 years, I have gone to over 5 science fairs and have achieved outstanding results which have motivated me to go further in my research.The inspiration for my project came from the waste surrounding us. I wanted to use the waste products for something beneficial to our community and environment. As a student, I plan to continue with this topic and study in the Microbiology field. I have not only learnt about the Microbial process but have been fortunate to work with U of M and carry out my experiment. I am very privileged to have an opportunity to share my results and research with huge crowds, passing on my learning and new discoveries. |
| Maitry Mistry Fermentation of thin stillage for biofuel production by Clostridium thermocellum
Défi: | Environnement | Catégorie: | Junior | Région: | Manitoba Schools Science Symposium | Ville: | Winnipeg, MB | École: | Acadia School | Sommaire: | The experiment is to unveil the potential of TS as an alternative growth medium in cellulosic bio fuels production. The thermophilic bacterium Clostridium thermocellum a candidate for consolidated bio-processing was used to produce fuels such as H2 and ethanol. In my experiment, various concentrations (50-400 g/L) of TS was tested with or without added cellulose replacing the ingredients of growth medium. |
