Abstract
This study developed a solid‐state fermentation process for millet Baijiu using millet and rice as raw materials. Single‐factor experiments combined with response surface methodology were employed to establish a mathematical model for process optimization, identifying the optimal parameters: millet proportion 28%, husk addition 11%, and starter addition 1%. The regression model demonstrated high significance (

The process was successfully validated through pilot‐scale production, achieving an alcohol yield of 44.5%, demonstrating the feasibility of industrial scale‐up. Furthermore, a sorbent pen‐based gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (SP‐GC–MS) analytical method was established for process monitoring of flavor compounds, which employs vacuum‐assisted sorbent extraction followed by thermal desorption, identifying 91 volatile compounds including 17 acids, 11 alcohols, and 63 esters. This study provides an engineering approach to millet Baijiu production, offering a scalable process model and analytical framework for process control and quality assurance in the Baijiu industry.
AbstractCassava processing generates large quantities of peel waste that is commonly discarded or burned, yet its high carbohydrate content makes it a candidate feedstock for fermentable-sugar and bioethanol production. This study examined the oven-assisted hydrolysis of cassava peels using a combined acetic–citric aci...
