Abstract

Compositions and methods for improving the efficiency of biofuels and chemicals, e.g., ethanol, production is described. Increased yield was obtained by facilitating biofilm formation in a bioreactor coupled with a particular microbial species. Compositions and methods for increased processing of solid biomass in a bioreactor are also described.
