Abstract: A process that provides for the reuse of yeast biomass used in the alcoholic fermentation of both sugarcane and corn in independent or integrated processes with steps of separation and reuse of solids prior to distillation and which are used in the process itself and in other industrial applications such as the production of high protein content (DDG/DDGS) ration, due to the alcohol recovery of the process, biodiesel, cell wall and yeast extract, as well as energy generation. The process also includes a drying step using indirect contact dryers operating with low pressure, non-noble vapors, such as plant vapor and exhaust vapor, and with the recovery of the ethanol contained in the wet cake.
