Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to a system and method for producing an organic compound using fermentation wherein multiple components of the system are recycled within the system. The system and method allow for extraction of a high concentration of the organic compound from the fermentation broth in a continuous system that allows recycling of the biomass, aqueous fermentation broth and extraction solvents. The system and method are particularly well adapted for producing and extracting ethanol. La présente invention concerne un système et un procédé de production d'un composé organique utilisant la fermentation dans lequel de multiples constituants du système sont recyclés dans le système. Le système et le procédé permettent l'extraction d'une forte concentration du composé organique à partir du bouillon de fermentation dans un système en continu qui permet de recycler la biomasse, le bouillon de fermentation aqueux et les solvants d'extraction. Le système et le procédé sont particulièrement bien adaptés pour produire et extraire de l'éthanol.
