For this, it's good to have a real industrial example and say what that company does, answering these questions:
How many fermenters? What are the conditions under which they perform the reaction and why? How do they get the most product (and keep the yeast alive? etc.

My example is CSR's Biostil.

they use molasses
(waste product from production of white sugar) as a starting material for production of ethanol (cheaper this way)
