1 st WorkshopXIII International Feed Technology Symposiumthe total fuel consumption. This quota should increase to 5.75% in 2010 <strong>and</strong>furthermore. Thereby, it can be calculated that the world production <strong>of</strong> bioethanol fromcorn in 2010 will be about 32%.The stillage obtained as a byproduct from bioethanol production on cereals is a highvalue feed, rich in protein content <strong>and</strong> could decrease a need for the addition <strong>of</strong> otherprotein rich components in feed mixes. Advantages <strong>of</strong> using stillage as animal feed are:better consumption <strong>of</strong> nutritive ingredients from the feed, better flavor <strong>of</strong> feed, presence<strong>of</strong> plant’s proteins, it contains an adequate amount <strong>of</strong> energy for animals in fatling, a lot<strong>of</strong> minerals <strong>and</strong> vitamins, presence <strong>of</strong> crude fiber which enhance the state <strong>of</strong> ruminant’sabdomen [1].Besides, utilization <strong>of</strong> stillage could enhance bioethanol production in technoeconomicalaspect. In this way around 40% <strong>of</strong> the investment can be recovered [2].In addition <strong>of</strong> stillage use for animal feed, researchers at The Faculty <strong>of</strong> Technology,Novi Sad have investigated recirculation <strong>of</strong> a thin stillage (a liquid portion obtained bythe separation from a whole stillage) in the mashing process. By this method <strong>of</strong> stillagerecycling a lower consumption <strong>of</strong> water in the process <strong>and</strong> higher ethanol productionwas achieved [3].Nowadays, an integrated model <strong>of</strong> bioethanol production makes possible utilization <strong>of</strong>the enriched sillage for animal feeding <strong>and</strong> the manure from animal feeding for theproduction <strong>of</strong> biogas. A stabilized sludge remained in the process can be used as afertilizer. Besides, by direct combustion <strong>of</strong> lignocelluloses part <strong>of</strong> the plants aconsiderably energy for heating can be released [4].For the last few years, a use <strong>of</strong> probiotic microorganisms as animals` food ingredientshas attracted a lot <strong>of</strong> interest. Some data indicate that the supplementation withprobiotics may improve the health <strong>of</strong> animals. The supplementation with the yeastculture may improve food intake, digestion <strong>and</strong> increase the number <strong>of</strong> anaerobic <strong>and</strong>cellulolytic bacteria. Yeast cells consist <strong>of</strong> some immunomodulant components, such asβ-glucan, nucleic <strong>acids</strong>, oligosaccharides, which stimulate the resistance to viruses <strong>and</strong>bacteria <strong>and</strong> the immune system <strong>of</strong> animals [5, 6].The aim <strong>of</strong> this study was to perform a chemical <strong>and</strong> nutritive analysis <strong>of</strong> the stillageobtained as a byproduct from bioethanol production on corn <strong>and</strong> triticale, as well as <strong>of</strong>the stillage obtained after bioethanol production on corn which was enriched with 1%w/w <strong>of</strong> the Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast. The chemical analysis encompassed thedetection <strong>of</strong> components such as moisture, fat, cellulose, phosporus, proteins, <strong>and</strong>mineral materials – Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe, Ca <strong>and</strong> Na. The chemical composition <strong>of</strong> theobtained mixtures was assessed from the point <strong>of</strong> nutritive quality required for animalfeed.MATERIALS AND METHODSThree samples <strong>of</strong> stillage were analyzed: 1) Stillage <strong>of</strong> triticale 2) Stillage <strong>of</strong> corn 3)Stillage <strong>of</strong> corn enriched with S.cerevisiae (1%w/w stillage).By the chemical analysis determinated: moisture, protein content, cellulose, minerals,microelements (P, Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe, Ca i Na) [7].300
