Used as a feedstock in fermentation processes to produce ethanol and rum. Serves as a cost-effective carbon source in microbial cultures for producing antibiotics, yeast, and organic acids. Applied in animal feed as an energy-rich additive that improves palatability and reduces dust in feed mixtures. Utilized in wastewater treatment as a nutrient source for bacteria involved in bioremediation. Also used in soil stabilization and dust suppression on unpaved roads due to its adhesive and hygroscopic properties.
