Estudo da viabilidade da levedura de descarte da indústria cervejeira, na obtenção da aguardente do “liquor” de laranja

O “liquor” de laranja é um subproduto da indústria de suco de laranja, liquido resultante da prensagem do bagaço da laranja; atualmente sua utilidade pela indústria cítrica é a produção de ração animal. Mas estudos anteriores revelaram uma nova utilidade para o “liquor” de laranja: a produção de aguardente. Tal produto demonstrou ser uma excelente alternativa para o uso do mesmo, visto que a aguardente produzida tem potencial de ser o segundo produto em valor agregado e em volume produzido pela indústria de suco de laranja. A indústria cervejeira utiliza leveduras Saccharomyces cerevisae para a produção de cerveja, que são descartadas após cinco utilizações, mas ainda com grande viabilidade, apresentando um valor médio de 2% de células mortas. Foi descrito em trabalhos anteriores que tais leveduras podem ser utilizadas na produção de aguardente de “liquor” de laranja, aumentando o caráter de sustentabilidade da aguardente produzida. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a viabilidade das leveduras S. cerevisae, na fermentação do “liquor” de laranja, após bateladas de fermentação do “liquor.
