Process variables and concentration of carbon in media were optimised for lactic acid production by Lactobacillus casei NRRL B-441. Lactic acid yield was inversely proportional to initial glucose concentration within the experimental area (80-160 g l(-1)). The highest lactic acid concentration in batch fermentation, 118.6 g l(-1), was obtained with 160 g 1(-1) glucose. The maximum volumetric productivity, 4.4 g 1(-1) h(-1) at 15 h, was achieved at an initial glucose concentration of 100 g l(-1). Similar lactic acid concentrations were reached with a fedbatch approach using growing cells, in which case the fermentation time was much shorter. Statistical experimental design and response surface methodology were used for optimising the process variables. The temperature and pH optima for lactic acid production were 35 degrees C, pH 6.3. Malt sprout extract supplemented with yeast extract (4 g l(-1)) appeared to be an economical alternative to yeast extract alone (22 g l(-1)) although the fermentation time was a little longer. The results demonstrated both the separation of the growth and lactic acid production phases and lactic acid production by non-growing cells without any nutrient supplements. Resting L. casei cells converted 120 g l(-1) glucose to lactic acid with 100% yield and a maximum volumetric productivity of 3.5 g l(-1) h(-1). 相似文献

A rotating fibrous-bed bioreactor (RFB) was developed for fermentation to produce L(+)-lactic acid from glucose and cornstarch by Rhizopus oryzae. Fungal mycelia were immobilized on cotton cloth in the RFB for a prolonged period to study the fermentation kinetics and process stability. The pH and dissolved oxygen concentration (DO) were found to have significant effects on lactic acid productivity and yield, with pH 6 and 90% DO being the optimal conditions. A high lactic acid yield of 90% (w/w) and productivity of 2.5 g/L.h (467 g/h.m(2)) was obtained from glucose in fed-batch fermentation. When cornstarch was used as the substrate, the lactic acid yield was close to 100% (w/w) and the productivity was 1.65 g/L.h (300 g/h.m(2)). The highest concentration of lactic acid achieved in these fed-batch fermentations was 127 g/L. The immobilized-cells fermentation in the RFB gave a virtually cell-free fermentation broth and provided many advantages over conventional fermentation processes, especially those with freely suspended fungal cells. Without immobilization with the cotton cloth, mycelia grew everywhere in the fermentor and caused serious problems in reactor control and operation and consequently the fermentation was poor in lactic acid production. Oxygen transfer in the RFB was also studied and the volumetric oxygen transfer coefficients under various aeration and agitation conditions were determined and then used to estimate the oxygen transfer rate and uptake rate during the fermentation. The results showed that the oxygen uptake rate increased with increasing DO, indicating that oxygen transfer was limited by the diffusion inside the mycelial layer. 相似文献

A new succinic acid and lactic acid production bioprocess by Corynebacterium crenatum was investigated in mineral medium under anaerobic conditions. Corynebacterium crenatum cells with sustained acid production ability and high acid volumetric productivity harvested from the glutamic acid fermentation broth were used to produce succinic acid and lactic acid. Compared with the first cycle, succinic acid production in the third cycle increased 120% and reached 43.4 g/L in 10 h during cell-recycling repeated fermentations. The volumetric productivities of succinic acid and lactic acid could maintain above 4.2 g/(L·h) and 3.1 g/(L·h), respectively, for at least 100 h. Moreover, wheat bran hydrolysates could be used for succinic acid and lactic acid production by the recycled C. crenatum cells. The final succinic acid concentration reached 43.6 g/L with a volumetric productivity of 4.36 g/(L·h); at the same time, 32 g/L lactic acid was produced. 相似文献

Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of d-lactic acid was performed using brown rice as both a substrate and a nutrient source. An engineered Lactobacillus plantarum NCIMB 8826 strain, in which the ʟ-lactate dehydrogenase gene was disrupted, produced 97.7 g/L d-lactic acid from 20% (w/v) brown rice without any nutrient supplementation. However, a significant amount of glucose remained unconsumed and the yield of lactic acid was as low as 0.75 (g/g-glucose contained in brown rice). Interestingly, the glucose consumption was significantly improved by adapting L. plantarum cells to the low-pH condition during the early stage of SSF (8–17 h). As a result, 117.1 g/L d-lactic acid was produced with a high yield of 0.93 and an optical purity of 99.6% after 144 h of fermentation. SSF experiments were repeatedly performed for ten times and d-lactic acid was stably produced using recycled cells (118.4–129.8 g/L). On average, d-lactic acid was produced with a volumetric productivity of 2.18 g/L/h over 48 h. 相似文献

The by-products of bioethanol production such as thin stillage (TS) and condensed distillers solubles (CDS) were used as a potential nitrogen source for economical production of lactic acid. The effect of those by-products and their concentrations on lactic acid fermentation were investigated using Lactobacillus paracasei CHB2121. Approximately, 6.7 g/L of yeast extract at a carbon source to nitrogen source ratio of 15 was required to produce 90 g/L of lactic acid in the medium containing 100 g/L of glucose. Batch fermentation of TS medium resulted in 90 g/L of lactic acid after 48 h, and the medium containing 10 % CDS resulted in 95 g/L of lactic acid after 44 h. Therefore, TS and CDS could be considered as potential alternative fermentation medium for the economical production of lactic acid. Furthermore, lactic acid fermentation was performed using only cassava and CDS for commercial production of lactic acid. The volumetric productivity of lactic acid [2.94 g/(L·h)] was 37 % higher than the productivity obtained from the medium with glucose and CDS. 相似文献

Improved fermentation processes were developed for the production of mannitol by a heterofermentative lactic acid bacterium ( Lactobacillus intermedius NRRL B-3693). A fed-batch fermentation protocol overcame limitations caused by high substrate concentrations. The process was developed using corn steep liquor and glucose as inexpensive industrial nutrient sources, supplemented with a small amount of soy peptone and manganese. The fed-batch process resulted in a concentration of 176 ± 0.5 g mannitol from 184 ± 0 g fructose and 92 ± 0.1 g glucose per L of final fermentation broth in 30 h with a volumetric productivity of 5.9 g/(L h). Further increases in volumetric productivity of mannitol were obtained in a continuous cell-recycle fermentation process that reached more than 40 g/(L h), despite reduced mannitol levels of 78–98 g/L and residual substrate of 10–20 g/L. This is the first report of such a high volumetric productivity of mannitol by a heterofermentative lactic acid bacterium. 相似文献

Aspergillus niger B60 was immobilized in a dual hollow-fiber bioreactor (DHFBR) to produce citric acid continuously. The fungi proliferated well in the interstitial region formed by a parallel arrangement of three microporous polypropylene hollow fibers contained within a silicone tube. Long-term operation with nitrogen-enriched medium was not possible due to expansion of the silicone tubes by continual cell growth. The fungal growth could be controlled by supplying a nitrogen-deficient medium at the production stage. With pure oxygen aeration and nitrogen-deficient medium, volumetric productivity reached 1.62 g/L h at a residence time of 4.02 h, which corresponded to a 27-fold increase over that of shake-flask fermentation. When the residence time was increased to 20.1 h, citric acid at a concentration of 26 g/L was continuously produced, with a yield of 80-90% and a volumetric productivity of 1.3 g/L h. This represents a significant improvement in final concentration, yield, and the volumetric productivity over the equivalent values of the corresponding batch fermentation, which were 18 g/L, 40%, and 0.06 g/L h, respectively. 相似文献

Recycle batch fermentations using immobilized cells of Propionibacterium acidipropionici were studied for propionate production from whey permeate, de-lactose whey permeate, and acid whey. Cells were immobilized in a spirally wound fibrous sheet packed in a 0.5-L column reactor, which was connected to a 5-L stirred tank batch fermentor with recirculation. The immobilized cells bioreactor served as a breeder for these recycle batch fermentations. High fermentation rates and conversions were obtained with these whey media without nutrient supplementation. It took approximately 55 h to ferment whey permeate containing approximately 45 g/L lactose to approximately 20 g/L propionic acid. Higher propionate concentrations can be produced with various concentrated whey media containing more lactose. The highest propionic acid concentration obtained with the recycle batch reactor was 65 g/L, which is much higher than the normal maximum concentration of 35 to 45 g/L reported in the literature. The volumetric productivity ranged from 0.22 g/L . h to 0.47 g/L . h, depending on the propionate concentration and whey medium used. The corresponding specific cell productivity was 0.033 to 0.07 g/L . g cell. The productivity increased to 0.68 g/L . h when whey permeate was supplemented with 1% (w/v) yeast extract. Compared with conventional batch fermentation, the recycle batch fermentation with the immobilized cell bioreactor allows faster fermentation, produces a higher concentration of product, and can be run continually without significant downtime. The process also produced similar fermentation results with nonsterile whey media. (c) 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Optimization studies were carried out for the production of L-lactic acid from the fermentation of beet molasses by Lactobacillus delbrueckii. A Central Composite Design was used to determine the optimum values of the process variables (temperature, pH, inoculum concentration, and initial sucrose concentration) for obtaining the maximum yield and the maximum volumetric productivity of lactic acid. Among the variables selected for study, it was found that all of them apart from the temperature significantly affected the responses (yield and volumetric productivity of lactic acid). The Central Composite Design also permitted formulating two second-order polynomial empirical models relating to the responses and the significant variables. From these models it was possible to determine the value of the variables giving the maximum yield of lactic acid production (87.8%) and the maximum volumetric rate of lactic acid biosynthesis (2.7 g/l · h). Finally, the dependence of the lactic acid yield and productivity on the model variables was investigated. All conclusions are restricted to the experimental range studied. 相似文献

Polylactides produced from renewable feedstocks, such as corn starch, are being developed as alternatives to plastics derived from petroleum. In addition to corn, other less expensive biomass resources can be readily converted to component sugars (glucose, xylose, etc.) by enzyme and/or chemical treatment for fermentation to optically pure lactic acid to reduce the cost of lactic acid. Lactic acid bacteria used by the industry lack the ability to ferment pentoses (hemicellulose-derived xylose and arabinose), and their growth and fermentation optima also differ from the optimal conditions for the activity of fungal cellulases required for depolymerization of cellulose. To reduce the overall cost of simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of cellulose, we have isolated bacterial biocatalysts that can grow and ferment all sugars in the biomass at conditions that are also optimal for fungal cellulases. SSF of Solka Floc cellulose by one such isolate, Bacillus sp. strain 36D1, yielded l(+)-lactic acid at an optical purity higher than 95% with cellulase (Spezyme CE; Genencor International) added at about 10 FPU/g cellulose, with a product yield of about 90% of the expected maximum. Volumetric productivity of SSF to lactic acid was optimal between culture pH values of 4.5 and 5.5 at 50 degrees C. At a constant pH of 5.0, volumetric productivity of lactic acid was maximal at 55 degrees C. Strain 36D1 also co-fermented cellulose-derived glucose and sugar cane bagasse hemicellulose-derived xylose simultaneously (SSCF). In a batch SSCF of 40% acid-treated hemicellulose hydrolysate (over-limed) and 20 g/L Solka Floc cellulose, strain 36D1 produced about 35 g/L lactic acid in about 144 h with 15 FPU of Spezyme CE/g cellulose. The maximum volumetric productivity of lactic acid in this SSCF was 6.7 mmol/L (h). Cellulose-derived lactic acid contributed to about 30% of this total lactic acid. These results show that Bacillus sp. strain 36D1 is well-suited for simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation of all of the biomass-derived sugars to lactic acid. 相似文献

Batch fermentation studies were performed to evaluate the potentials of a complex nitrogen source, soybean, as an alternative to yeast extract for the economical production of lactic acid by Lactobacillus rhamnosus. An enzyme-hydrolysate of soybean meal, Soytone, with an adequate supplementation of vitamins was found to be highly effective in supporting lactic acid production from glucose and lactose. The effects of seven selected vitamins: d-biotin, pyridoxine, p-aminobenzoic acid, nicotinic acid, thiamine, pantothenic acid, and riboflavin, on cell growth and lactic acid production were investigated to provide the basis for the optimization of vitamin supplementation to minimize the cost. Pantothenic acid was the most required compound while the other six vitamins were also essential for high lactic acid productivity. As a result of the optimization, 15 g/l yeast extract could be successfully replaced with 19.3 g/l Soytone supplemented with the vitamins, resulting in a production of 125 g/l lactic acid from 150 g/l glucose. The volumetric productivity and lactate yield were 2.27 g/l/h and 92%, respectively, which were higher than those with 15 g/l yeast extract. The raw material cost was estimated to be 21.4 cent/kg lactic acid, which was only approximately 41% of that with yeast extract. 相似文献

The potential of apple pomace (a solid waste from cider and apple juice making factories) as a source of sugars and other compounds for fermentation was evaluated. The effect of the cellulase-to-solid ratio (CSR) and the liquor-to-solid ratio (LSR) on the kinetics of glucose and total monosaccharide generation was studied. Mathematical models suitable for reproducing and predicting the hydrolyzate composition were developed. When samples of apple pomace were subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis, the glucose and fructose present in the raw material as free monosaccharides were extracted at the beginning of the process. Using low cellulase and cellobiase charges (8.5 FPU/g-solid and 8.5 IU/g-solid, respectively), 79% of total glucan was saccharified after 12 h, leading to solutions containing up to 43.8 g monosaccharides/L (glucose, 22.8 g/L; fructose, 14.8 g/L; xylose+mannose+galactose, 2.5 g/L; arabinose+rhamnose, 2.8g/L). These results correspond to a monosaccharide/cellulase ratio of 0.06 g/FPU and to a volumetric productivity of 3.65 g of monosaccharides/L h. Liquors obtained under these conditions were used for fermentative lactic acid production with Lactobacillus rhamnosus CECT-288, leading to media containing up to 32.5 g/L of L-lactic acid after 6 h (volumetric productivity=5.41 g/L h, product yield=0.88 g/g). 相似文献

We carried out the first simulation on multi-stage continuous high cell density culture (MSC-HCDC) to show that the MSC-HCDC
can achieve batch/fed-batch product titer with much higher productivity to the fed-batch productivity using published fermentation
kinetics of lactic acid, penicillin and ethanol. The system under consideration consists of n-serially connected continuous stirred-tank reactors (CSTRs) with either hollow fiber cell recycling or cell immobilization
for high cell-density culture. In each CSTR substrate supply and product removal are possible. Penicillin production is severely
limited by glucose metabolite repression that requires multi-CSTR glucose feeding. An 8-stage C-HCDC lactic acid fermentation
resulted in 212.9 g/L of titer and 10.6 g/L/h of productivity, corresponding to 101 and 429% of the comparable lactic acid
fed-batch, respectively. The penicillin production model predicted 149% (0.085 g/L/h) of productivity in 8-stage C-HCDC with
40 g/L of cell density and 289% of productivity (0.165 g/L/h) in 7-stage C-HCDC with 60 g/L of cell density compared with
referring batch cultivations. A 2-stage C-HCDC ethanol experimental run showed 107% titer and 257% productivity of the batch
system having 88.8 g/L of titer and 3.7 g/L/h of productivity. MSC-HCDC can give much higher productivity than batch/fed-batch
system, and yield a several percentage higher titer as well. The productivity ratio of MSC-HCDC over batch/fed-batch system
is given as a multiplication of system dilution rate of MSC-HCDC and cycle time of batch/fed-batch system. We suggest MSC-HCDC
as a new production platform for various fermentation products including monoclonal antibody. 相似文献

This study was focused on the optimization of a new fermentation process for continuous gluconic acid production by the isolated yeast-like strain Aureobasidium pullulans DSM 7085 (isolate 70). Operational fermentation parameters were optimized in chemostat cultures, using a defined glucose medium. Different optima were found for growth and gluconic acid production for each set of operation parameters. Highest productivity was recorded at pH values between 6.5 and 7.0 and temperatures between 29 and 31 degrees C. A gluconic acid concentration higher than 230 g/L was continuously produced at residence times of 12 h. A steady state extracellular gluconic acid concentration of 234 g/L was measured at pH 6.5. 122% air saturation yielded the highest volumetric productivity and product concentration. The biomass-specific productivity increased steadily upon raising air saturation. An intracellular gluconic acid concentration of about 159 g/L (0.83 mol) was determined at 31 degrees C. This is to be compared with an extracellular concentration of 223 g/L (1.16 mol), which indicates the possible existence of an active transport system for gluconic acid secretion, or the presence of extracellular glucose oxidizing enzymes. The new process provides significant advantages over the traditional discontinuous fungi operations. The process control becomes easier, thus offering stable product quality and quantity. 相似文献

An anaerobic thermophilic coculture consisting of a heterofermentative bacterium (Clostridium thermolacticum) and a homoacetogen (Moorella thermoautotrophica) was developed for acetic acid production from lactose and milk permeate. The fermentation kinetics with free cells in conventional fermentors and immobilized cells in a recycle batch fibrous-bed bioreactor were studied. The optimal conditions for the cocultured fermentation were found to be 58 degrees C and pH 6.4. In the free-cell fermentation, C. thermolacticum converted lactose to acetate, ethanol, lactate, H(2) and CO(2), and the homoacetogen then converted lactate, H(2), and CO(2) to acetate. The overall acetate yield from lactose ranged from 0.46 to 0.65 g/g lactose fermented, depending on the fermentation conditions. In contrast, no ethanol was produced in the immobilized-cell fermentation, and the overall acetate yield from lactose increased to 0.8-0.96 g/g lactose fermented. The fibrous-bed bioreactor also gave a higher final acetate concentration (up to 25. 5 g/L) and reactor productivity (0.18-0.54 g/L/h) as compared to those from the free-cell fermentation (final acetate concentration, 15 g/L; productivity, 0.06-0.08 g/L/h). The superior performance of the fibrous-bed bioreactor was attributed to the high cell density (20 g/L) immobilized in the fibrous-bed and adaptation of C. thermolacticum cells to tolerate a higher acetate concentration. The effects of yeast extract and trypticase as nutrient supplements on the fermentation were also studied. For the free-cell fermentation, nutrient supplementation was necessary for the bacteria to grow in milk permeate. For the immobilized-cell fermentation, plain milk permeate gave a high acetate yield (0.96 g/g), although the reactor productivity was lower than those with nutrient supplementation. Balanced growth and fermentation activities between the two bacteria in the coculture are important to the quantitative conversion of lactose to acetic acid. Lactate and hydrogen produced by C. thermolacticum must be timely converted to acetic acid by the homoacetogen to avoid inhibition by these metabolites. 相似文献

The product, lactic acid, strongly inhibited microbial activity in lactic acid fermentation. The volumetric productivity declined from 1.19 g/l.h with zero lactic acid (control) to only 0.18 g/l.h when lactic acid reached 65 g/l. Lactic acid also inhibited cellulase activity but less severely than the inhibition on microbial activity as lactic acid above 90 g/l was needed for 50% inhibition. A gradual deterioration of the Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation (SSF) process occurred with the build-up of lactic acid and the rate-controlling step in SSF shifted from hydrolysis to fermentation as the bioprocess proceeded. 相似文献

It is important to produce L(+)-lactic acid at the lowest cost possible for lactic acid to become a candidate monomer material for promising biodegradable polylactic acid. In an effort to develop a high-rate bioreactor that provides high productivity along with a high concentration of lactic acid, the performance of membrane cell-recycle bioreactor (MCRB) was investigated via experimental studies and simulation optimization. Due to greatly increased cell density, high lactic acid productivity, 21.6 g L(-1) h(-1), was obtained in the reactor. The lactic acid concentration, however, could not be increased higher than 83 g/L. When an additional continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) was attached next to the MCRB a higher lactic acid concentration of 87 g/L was produced at significant productivity expense. When the two MCRBs were connected in series, 92 g/L lactic acid could be produced with a productivity of 57 g L(-1) h(-1), the highest productivity among the reports of L(+)-lactic acid that obtained lactic acid concentration higher than 85 g/L using glucose substrate. Additionally, the investigation of lactic acid fermentation kinetics resulted in a successful model that represents the characteristics of lactic acid fermentation by Lactobacillus rhamnosus. The model was found to be applicable to most of the existing data with MCRBs and was in good agreement with Levenspiel's product-inhibition model, and the Luedeking-Piret equation for product-formation kinetics appeared to be effective in representing the fermentation kinetics. There was a distinctive difference in the production potential of cells (cell-density-related parameter in Luedeking-Piret equation) as lactic acid concentration increases over 55 g/L, and this finding led to a more precise estimation of bioreactor performance. 相似文献

Rapeseed meal was evaluated for succinic acid production by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation using Actinobacillus succinogenes ATCC 55618. Diluted sulfuric acid pretreatment and subsequent hydrolysis with pectinase was used to release sugars from rapeseed meal. The effects of culture pH, pectinase loading and yeast extract concentration on succinic acid production were investigated. When simultaneous saccharification and fermentation of diluted acid pretreated rapeseed meal with a dry matter content of 12.5% (w/v) was performed at pH 6.4 and a pectinase loading of 2% (w/w, on dry matter) without supplementation of yeast extract, a succinic acid concentration of 15.5 g/L was obtained at a yield of 12.4 g/100g dry matter. Fed-batch simultaneous saccharification and fermentation was carried out with supplementation of concentrated pretreated rapeseed meal and pectinase at 18 and 28 h to yield a final dry matter content of 20.5% and pectinase loading of 2%, with the succinic acid concentration enhanced to 23.4 g/L at a yield of 11.5 g/100g dry matter and a productivity of 0.33 g/(Lh). This study suggests that rapeseed meal may be an alternative substrate for the efficient production of succinic acid by A. succinogenes without requiring nitrogen source supplementation. 相似文献

In the present study, lactic acid fermentation was carried out by batch culture of Enterococcus faecalis RKY1 using sucrose and mixed sugars as the major substrate. Maximum lactic acid productivity (5.2 g/L/h) was recorded when 50 and 100 g/L of sucrose were used as a carbon source. Sucrose concentration higher than 150 g/L resulted in the decrease of lactic acid productivity due to inhibition by high substrate concentration, but lactic acid productivity was remained > 3.0 g/L/h until the sucrose used for lactic acid fermentation increased up to 150 g/L. L-Lactic acid content of the total lactic acid produced from sucrose and mixed sugars was higher than 98%. When the fermentation media contained sucrose, the kinetic parameters showing specific rates such as μ, qS, and qP were relatively lower than those of fermentation using glucose as a sole carbon source, which might be due to additional time requirement to induce invertase enzyme for utilization of sucrose. There was no carbon catabolite repression observed when the sugar mixtures containing sucrose, glucose, and/ or fructose were used as a carbon source for lactic acid fermentation by E. faecalis RKY1. 相似文献
