Two-phase bioconversion product recovery by microfiltration I. Steady state studies

Recovery of an aqueous bioconversion product from complex, two-phase Pseudomonas putida broths containing 20% (v/v) soybean oil presents a significant challenge for downstream processing. Although not used before in multiple-phase separation for complex biotech products, crossflow filtration employing ceramic filters is one of the most attractive options which allow the design of integrated, continuous bioconversion processes. As a first attempt, we studied multichannel, monolithic ceramic membranes of different nominal pore sizes and lumen diameters under steady-state conditions. The best performance was obtained with 0.2-microm-pore/3-mm-lumen membrane, which completely rejected both cells and oil droplets from the permeate, creating a clear aqueous product stream. Although the same separation was achieved, the 50K molecular weight cut-off (MWCO) ultrafilter showed greater irreversible but similar reversible resistance, in addition to an order-of-magnitude higher membrane resistance. Larger nominal pore microfilters, such as 0.45 and 1.0 microm, experienced both cell and oil leakage even at low transmembrane pressure (10 psig). Attributed to greater shear at the same recirculation rate, smaller lumen filters did provide greater permeate flux. However, for practical purposes, the 0. 2-microm-pore/4-mm-lumen ceramic membrane was chosen for further evaluation. Transmembrane pressures up to 50 psig provided only marginal gains in filtration performance, whereas increasing shear rate resulted in linear increases in steady-state flux, presumably due to formation of shear-sensitive, complex gel/oil/cell layer near the membrane surface. A nominal shear rate of 9200 s-1 and 20 psig transmembrane pressure were chosen as optimal operating conditions. Additional studies in a clean system revealed that as low as 5% (v/v) soybean oil in deionized (DI) water resulted in an order-of-magnitude decline in steady-state permeate flux. Breakthrough of oil droplets occurred at 35 psig transmembrane pressure. The severe fouling and breakthrough phenomena disappeared in the presence of washed cells for transmembrane pressure up to 43 psig, implying an oil/cell layer coating the membrane surface, thus preventing oil penetration. Serious membrane fouling was also experienced in microfiltration of oil-free, cell-free supernatant and oil-free whole broth. Consequently, soluble proteins/surfactants were suspected to be the major membrane foulants. Interestingly, soybean oil up to 30% (v/v) enhanced the flux, presumably through complicated interactions with the major foulants. Regeneration of membrane was best achieved with protease and hot caustic/bleach treatments, supporting the hypothesized fouling mechanisms mentioned above. This work provides process and system information for batch microfiltration runs in the future, to be reported elsewhere as Part II of this work.     

Screening and distributing features of bacteria with hydantoinase and carbamoylase

Hydantoinase and carbamoylase are key biocatalysts for the production of optically pure amino acids from dl-5-substituted hydantoins (SSH). Out of 364 isolated strains with hydantoinase and carbamoylase at 45 degrees C, 24 strains showed efficient hydantoinase and carbamoylase activities. Among them, 17 produced l-amino acids, and 7 produced d-amino acids from both aromatic dl-5-benzylhydantoin and aliphatic dl-5-isopropylhydantoin. Most of the strains that were able to form l-amino acid belonged to genera Bacillus, Geobacillus, Brevibacillus, Aneurinibacillus, Microbacterium, and Kurthia. Phylogenetic relationships were investigated based on 16S rRNA from the hydantoinase-producing bacteria. Distinct tendencies toward certain genera were observed between most of the strains forming l-amino acids and d-amino acids from SSH. The results from this study can be utilized to develop new isolation technology of hydantoinase-producing microorganisms, and to understand metabolism and evolutionary origins of hydantoinase and carbamoylase among different bacteria.     

Cell adaptation to solvent, substrate and product: a successful strategy to overcome product inhibition in a bioconversion system

Carvone has previously been found to highly inhibit its own production at concentrations above 50 mM during conversion of a diastereomeric mixture of (−)-carveol by whole cells of Rhodococcus erythropolis. Adaptation of the cells to the presence of increasing concentrations of carveol and carvone in n-dodecane prior to biotransformation proved successful in overcoming carvone inhibition. By adapting R. erythropolis cells for 197 h, an 8.3-fold increase in carvone production rate compared to non-adapted cells was achieved in an air-driven column reactor. After an incubation period of 268 h, a final carvone concentration of 1.03 M could be attained, together with high productivity [0.19 mg carvone h⁻¹ (ml organic phase)⁻¹] and high yield (0.96 g carvone g carveol⁻¹).
