PROCESS FOR PRODUCING ALCOHOL

摘要

The invention provides a process for producing an alcohol, which process comprises: fermenting a fermentable hydrocarbonaceous compound in the presence of a microbiological organism, thereby forming an aqueous alcohol -comprising solution; absorbing at least part of the alcohol from the aqueous alcohol -comprising solution by contacting at least part of the aqueous alcohol -comprising solution with the ZIF absorbent to obtain an aqueous alcohol -depleted solution and an alcohol -comprising ZIF absorbent; and desorbing the alcohol from the alcohol-comprising ZIF absorbent to obtain an alcohol product.
