These compounds inhibit yeast metabolism, reducing fermentation yields and productivity. This study initially confirmed the ability of Spathaspora passalidarum to ferment xylose and demonstrated its sensibility to the inhibitors present in the hemicellulosic sugarcane bagasse hydrolysate. Then, an adaptive laboratory evolution, with progressive increments of hydrolysate concentration, was employed to select a strain more resistant to hydrolysate inhibitors. Afterward, a central composite design was performed to maximize ethanol production using hydrolysate as substrate. At optimized conditions (initial cell concentration of 30 g/L), S. passalidarum was able to produce 19.4 g/L of ethanol with productivity, yield, and xylose consumption rate of 0.8 g/L.h and 0.4 g/g, respectively, in a sugarcane bagasse hemicellulosic hydrolysate. A kinetic model was developed to describe the inhibition of fermentation by substrate and product. The values obtained for substrate saturation and inhibition constant were Ks = 120.4 g/L and Ki = 1293.4 g/L. Ethanol concentration that stops cell growth was 30.1 g/L. There was an agreement between simulated and experimental results, with a residual standard deviation lower than 6%. aBiomass aEvolutionary adaptation aHydrolysates aLignocellulose aSugarcane aXylose aBiomassa aCana de Açúcar aHidrolise aSpathaspora passalidarum1 aMACHADO, B.
