Abstract :In this study, ethanol was produced with the microorganism {\em Saccharomyces cerevisiae} by using sucrose as a substrate. Batch processes were tested by using the same substrate, microorganism and medium composition. {\em Saccharomyces cerevisiae}, used in the free form in the first group of experiments, was immobilized by different methods. In the second group of experiments agar, sponge and a natural material called luffa cylindrica fiber were used as support materials. The batch processes with free and immobilized microorganisms were compared with respect to efficiency and yield.Keywords : Turk. J. Chem., 22, (1998), 351-360.
