Wheat bran, a by-product of the wheat milling industry, consists mainly of hemicellulose, starch and protein. In this study,
the hydrolysate of wheat bran pretreated with dilute sulfuric acid was used as a substrate to produce ABE (acetone, butanol
and ethanol) using Clostridium beijerinckii ATCC 55025. The wheat bran hydrolysate contained 53.1 g/l total reducing sugars, including 21.3 g/l of glucose, 17.4 g/l
of xylose and 10.6 g/l of arabinose. C. beijerinckii ATCC 55025 can utilize hexose and pentose simultaneously in the hydrolysate to produce ABE. After 72 h of fermentation, the
total ABE in the system was 11.8 g/l, of which acetone, butanol and ethanol were 2.2, 8.8 and 0.8 g/l, respectively. The fermentation
resulted in an ABE yield of 0.32 and productivity of 0.16 g l−1 h−1. This study suggests that wheat bran can be a potential renewable resource for ABE fermentation. 相似文献

A potential industrial substrate (liquefied corn starch; LCS) has been employed for successful acetone butanol ethanol (ABE)
production. Fermentation of LCS (60 g l−1) in a batch process resulted in the production of 18.4 g l−1 ABE, comparable to glucose: yeast extract based medium (control experiment, 18.6 g l−1 ABE). A batch fermentation of LCS integrated with product recovery resulted in 92% utilization of sugars present in the feed.
When ABE was recovered by gas stripping (to relieve inhibition) from the fed-batch reactor fed with saccharified liquefied
cornstarch (SLCS), 81.3 g l−1 ABE was produced compared to 18.6 g l−1 (control). In this integrated system, 225.8 g l−1 SLCS sugar (487 % of control) was consumed. In the absence of product removal, it is not possible for C. beijerinckii BA101 to utilize more than 46 g l−1 glucose. A combination of fermentation of this novel substrate (LCS) to butanol together with product recovery by gas stripping
may economically benefit this fermentation.

Clostridium beijerinckii DSM 6423 was studied using different continuous production methods to give maximum and stable production of isopropanol and
n-butanol. In a single-stage continuous culture, when wood pulp was added as a cell holding material, we could increase the
solvent productivity from 0.47 to 5.52 g L−1 h−1 with the yield of 54% from glucose. The overall solvent concentration of 7.51 g L−1 (39.4% isopropanol and 60.6% n-butanol) with the maximum solvent productivity of 0.84 g L−1 h−1 was obtained with two-stage continuous culture. We were able to run the process for more than 48 overall retention times
without losing the ability to produce solvents. 相似文献

Clostridium beijerinckii mutant strain IB4, which has a high level of inhibitor tolerance, was screened by low-energy ion implantation and used for
butanol fermentation from a non-detoxified hemicellulosic hydrolysate of corn fiber treated with dilute sulfuric acid (SAHHC).
Evaluation of toxicity showed C. beijerinckii IB4 had a higher level of tolerance than parent strain C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 for five out of six phenolic compounds tested (the exception was vanillin). Using glucose as carbon source, C. beijerinckii IB4 produced 9.1 g l−1 of butanol with an acetone/butanol/ethanol (ABE) yield of 0.41 g g−1. When non-detoxified SAHHC was used as carbon source, C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 grew well but ABE production was inhibited. By contrast, C. beijerinckii IB4 produced 9.5 g l−1 of ABE with a yield of 0.34 g g−1, including 2.2 g l−1 acetone, 6.8 g l−1 butanol, and 0.5 g l−1 ethanol. The remarkable fermentation and inhibitor tolerance of C. beijerinckii IB4 appears promising for ABE production from lignocellulosic materials. 相似文献

Soy molasses as fermentation substrate for production of butanol using Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Spray-dried soy molasses (SDSM) contains the sugars dextrose, sucrose, fructose, pinitol, raffinose, verbascose, melibiose,
and stachyose. Of the 746 g kg−1 total sugars in SDSM, 434 g kg−1 is fermentable using Clostridium beijerinckii BA101. SDSM was used to produce acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE) by C. beijerinckii BA101 in batch cultures. Using 80 g l−1 SDSM, 10.7 g l−1 ABE was produced in P2 medium. Higher concentrations of SDSM resulted in poor solvent production due to the presence of excessive
salt and inhibitory components. C. beijerinckii BA101 in SDSM at 80 g l−1 concentration produced 22.8 g l−1 ABE when supplemented with 25.3 g l−1 glucose. SDSM contains 57.4 g kg−1 mineral ash and 2% tri-calcium phosphate. Tri-calcium phosphate up to 43.1 g l−1 was not inhibitory and at a tri-calcium phosphate concentration of 28.8 g l−1, the culture produced more solvents (30.1 g l−1) than the control experiment (23.8 g l−1). In contrast, sodium chloride was a strong inhibitor of C. beijerinckii BA101 cell growth. At a concentration of 10 g l−1 sodium chloride, a maximum cell concentration of 0.6 g l−1 was achieved compared to 1.7 g l−1 in the control experiment. The effects of two salts on specific growth rate constant (μ) and specific rate of ABE production (ν) for C. beijerinckii BA101 were examined.

Production of butanol from starch-based waste packing peanuts and agricultural waste 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

We examined the fermentation of starch-based packing peanuts and agricultural wastes as a source of fermentable carbohydrates
using Clostridium beijerinckii BA101. Using semidefined P2 medium containing packing peanuts and agricultural wastes, instead of glucose as a carbohydrate
source, we measured characteristics of the fermentation including solvent production, productivity, and yield. With starch
as substrate (control), the culture produced 24.7 g l−1 acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE), while with packing peanuts it produced 21.7 g l−1 total ABE with a productivity of 0.20 g l−1 h−1 and a solvent (ABE) yield of 0.37. Cell growth in starch, packing peanuts, and agricultural wastes medium was different,
possibly due to the different nature of these substrates. Using model agricultural waste, 20.3g l−1 ABE was produced; when using actual waste, 14.8 g l−1 ABE was produced. The use of inexpensive substrates will increase the economic viability of the conversion of biomass to
butanol, and can provide new markets for these waste streams. Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology (2002) 29, 117–123 doi: 10.1038/sj.jim.7000285

Improving performance of a gas stripping-based recovery system to remove butanol from Clostridium beijerinckii fermentation 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The effect of factors such as gas recycle rate, bubble size, presence of acetone, and ethanol in the solution/broth were investigated in order to remove butanol from model solution or fermentation broth (also called acetone butanol ethanol or ABE or solvents). Butanol (8 g L–1, model solution, Fig. 2) stripping rate was found to be proportional to the gas recycle rate. In the bubble size range attempted (<0.5 and 0.5–5.0 mm), the bubble size did not have any effect on butanol removal rate (Fig. 3, model solution). In Clostridium beijerinckii fermentation, ABE productivity was reduced from 0.47 g L–1 h–1 to 0.25 g L–1 h–1 when smaller (<0.5 mm) bubble size was used to remove ABE (Fig. 4, results reported as butanol/ABE concentration). The productivity was reduced as a result of addition of an excessive amount of antifoam used to inhibit the production of foam caused by the smaller bubbles. This suggested that the fermentation was negatively affected by antifoam.Mention of trade names of commercial products in this article is solely for the purpose of providing scientific information and does not imply recommendation or endorsement by the United States Department of Agriculture. 相似文献

Conventional acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE) fermentation is severely limited by low solvent titer and productivities. Thus, this study aims at developing an improved Clostridium acetobutylicum strain possessing enhanced ABE production capability followed by process optimization for high ABE productivity. Random mutagenesis of C. acetobutylicum PJC4BK was performed by screening cells on fluoroacetate plates to isolate a mutant strain, BKM19, which exhibited the total solvent production capability 30.5% higher than the parent strain. The BKM19 produced 32.5 g L?1 of ABE (17.6 g L?1 butanol, 10.5 g L?1 ethanol, and 4.4 g L?1 acetone) from 85.2 g L?1 glucose in batch fermentation. A high cell density continuous ABE fermentation of the BKM19 in membrane cell‐recycle bioreactor was studied and optimized for improved solvent volumetric productivity. Different dilution rates were examined to find the optimal condition giving highest butanol and ABE productivities. The maximum butanol and ABE productivities of 9.6 and 20.0 g L?1 h?1, respectively, could be achieved at the dilution rate of 0.85 h?1. Further cell recycling experiments were carried out with controlled cell‐bleeding at two different bleeding rates. The maximum solvent productivities were obtained when the fermenter was operated at a dilution rate of 0.86 h?1 with the bleeding rate of 0.04 h?1. Under the optimal operational condition, butanol and ABE could be produced with the volumetric productivities of 10.7 and 21.1 g L?1 h?1, and the yields of 0.17 and 0.34 g g?1, respectively. The obtained butanol and ABE volumetric productivities are the highest reported productivities obtained from all known‐processes. Biotechnol.

This is an overview of the mutant strain Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 which produces solvents (acetone–butanol–ethanol, ABE) at elevated levels. This organism expresses high levels of amylases
when grown on starch. C. beijerinckii BA101 hydrolyzes starch effectively and produces solvent in the concentration range of 27–29 g l−1. C. beijerinckii BA101 has been characterized for both substrate and butanol inhibition. Supplementing the fermentation medium (MP2) with
sodium acetate enhances solvent production to 33 g l−1. The results of studies utilizing commercial fermentation medium and pilot plant-scale reactors are consistent with the results
using small-scale reactors. Pervaporation, a technique to recover solvents, has been applied to fed-batch reactors containing
C. beijerinckii BA101, and solvent production as high as 165 g l−1 has been achieved. Immobilization of C. beijerinckii BA101 by adsorption and use in a continuous reactor resulted in reactor productivity of 15.8 g l−1 h−1. Recent economic studies employing C. beijerinckii BA101 suggested that butanol can be produced at US$0.20–0.25 lb−1 by employing batch fermentation and distillative recovery. Application of new technologies such as pervaporation, fed-batch
culture, and immobilized cell reactors is expected to further reduce these prices.

Development of a cost-effective glucose-corn steep medium for production of butanol by Clostridium beijerinckii 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Corn steep water (CSW) medium (1.6% solids plus 6% glucose) was evaluated for growth and butanol production by Clostridium beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 wild-type and hyper-amylolytic, hyper-butanol-producing mutant strain BA101. CSW alone was not a suitable substrate,
whereas addition of glucose supported growth and butanol production by both strains. In a batch-scale fermentation using an
optimized 6% glucose-1.6% solids CSW medium, C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and strain BA101 produced 10.7 g L−1 and 14.5 g L−1 of butanol, respectively. The total solvents (acetone, butanol, and ethanol) produced by C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and strain BA101 were 14 g L−1 and 20 g L−1, respectively. Initial fermentation in small-scale flasks containing 6% maltodextrin-1.6% solids concentration CSW medium
resulted in 6 g L−1 and 12.6 g L−1 of butanol production by C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and strain BA101, respectively. CSW can serve as an economic source of nitrogen, vitamins, amino acids, minerals,
and other nutrients. Thus, it is feasible to use 6% glucose-1.6% solids CSW medium in place of semi-defined P2 medium.

Continuous solvent production by Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 immobilized by adsorption onto brick
Qureshi N. Schripsema J. Lienhardt J. Blaschek H.P. 《World journal of microbiology & biotechnology》2000,16(4):377-382
The performance of a continuous bioreactor containing Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 adsorbed onto clay brick was examined for the fermentation of acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE). Dilution rates from 0.3 to 2.5 h–1 were investigated with the highest solvent productivity of 15.8 g l–1 h–1 being obtained at 2.0 h–1. The solvent yield at this dilution rate was found to be 0.38 g g–1 and total solvent concentration was 7.9 g l–1. The solvent yield was maximum at 0.45 at a dilution rate of 0.3 h–1. The maximum solvent productivity obtained was found to be 2.5 times greater than most other immobilized continuous and cell recycle systems previously reported for ABE fermentation. A higher dilution rate (above 2.0 h–1) resulted in acid production rather than solvent production. This reactor was found to be stable for over 550 h. Scanning electron micrographs (SEM) demonstrated that a large amount of C. beijerinckii cells were adsorbed onto the brick support. 相似文献

In these studies, liquid hot water (LHW) pretreated and enzymatically hydrolyzed Sweet Sorghum Bagasse (SSB) hydrolyzates were fermented in a fed‐batch reactor. As reported in the preceding paper, the culture was not able to ferment the hydrolyzate I in a batch process due to presence of high level of toxic chemicals, in particular acetic acid released from SSB during the hydrolytic process. To be able to ferment the hydrolyzate I obtained from 250 g L?1 SSB hydrolysis, a fed‐batch reactor with in situ butanol recovery was devised. The process was started with the hydrolyzate II and when good cell growth and vigorous fermentation were observed, the hydrolyzate I was slowly fed to the reactor. In this manner the culture was able to ferment all the sugars present in both the hydrolyzates to acetone butanol ethanol (ABE). In a control batch reactor in which ABE was produced from glucose, ABE productivity and yield of 0.42 g L?1 h?1 and 0.36 were obtained, respectively. In the fed‐batch reactor fed with SSB hydrolyzates, these productivity and yield values were 0.44 g L?1 h?1 and 0.45, respectively. ABE yield in the integrated system was high due to utilization of acetic acid to convert to ABE. In summary we were able to utilize both the hydrolyzates obtained from LHW pretreated and enzymatically hydrolyzed SSB (250 g L?1) and convert them to ABE. Complete fermentation was possible due to simultaneous recovery of ABE by vacuum. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 34:967–972, 2018 相似文献

Continuous production of acetone, n-butanol, and ethanol (ABE) was carried out using immobilized cells of Clostridium acetobutylicum DSM 792 using glucose and sugar mixture as a substrate. Among various lignocellulosic materials screened as a support matrix,
coconut fibers and wood pulp fibers were found to be promising in batch experiments. With a motive of promoting wood-based
bio-refinery concept, wood pulp was used as a cell holding material. Glucose and sugar mixture (glucose, mannose, galactose,
arabinose, and xylose) comparable to lignocellulose hydrolysate was used as a substrate for continuous production of ABE.
We report the best solvent productivity among wild-type strains using column reactor. The maximum total solvent concentration
of 14.32 g L−1 was obtained at a dilution rate of 0.22 h−1 with glucose as a substrate compared to 12.64 g L−1 at 0.5 h−1 dilution rate with sugar mixture. The maximum solvent productivity (13.66 g L−1 h−1) was obtained at a dilution rate of 1.9 h−1 with glucose as a substrate whereas solvent productivity (12.14 g L−1 h−1) was obtained at a dilution rate of 1.5 h−1 with sugar mixture. The immobilized column reactor with wood pulp can become an efficient technology to be integrated with
existing pulp mills to convert them into wood-based bio-refineries. 相似文献

We examined the effect of gas-stripping on the in situ removal of acetone, butanol, and ethanol (ABE) from batch reactor fermentation broth. The mutant strain (Clostridium beijerinckii BA101) was not affected adversely by gas stripping. The presence of cells in the fermentation broth affected the selectivities of ABE. A considerable improvement in the productivity and yield was recorded in this work in comparison with the non-integrated process. In an integrated process of ABE fermentation-recovery using C. beijerinckii BA101, ABE productivities and yield were improved up to 200 and 118%, respectively, as compared to control batch fermentation data. In a batch reactor C. beijerinckii BA101 utilized 45.4 g glucose l–1 and produced 17.7 g total ABE l–1, while in the integrated process it utilized 161.7 g glucose l–1 and produced total ABE of 75.9 g l–1. In the integrated process, acids were completely converted to solvents when compared to the non-integrated process (batch fermentation) which contained residual acids at the end of fermentation. In situ removal of ABE by gas stripping has been reported to be one of the most important techniques of solvent removal. During these studies we were able to maintain the ABE concentration in the fermentation broth below toxic levels. 相似文献

SO2–ethanol–water (SEW) spent liquor from spruce chips was successfully used for batch and continuous production of acetone, butanol and ethanol (ABE). Initially, batch experiments were performed using spent liquor to check the suitability for production of ABE. Maximum concentration of total ABE was found to be 8.79 g/l using 4-fold diluted SEW liquor supplemented with 35 g/l of glucose. The effect of dilution rate on solvent production, productivity and yield was studied in column reactor consisting of immobilized Clostridium acetobutylicum DSM 792 on wood pulp. Total solvent concentration of 12 g/l was obtained at a dilution rate of 0.21 h−1. The maximum solvent productivity (4.86 g/l h) with yield of 0.27 g/g was obtained at dilution rate of 0.64 h−1. Further, to increase the solvent yield, the unutilized sugars were subjected to batch fermentation. 相似文献

Yellow Top (Physaria fendleri) is a plant that belongs to the mustard family. This plant is used to produce seeds that are rich in hydroxy oil. After extraction of oil, the presscake is land filled. The seedcake is rich in polymeric sugars and can be used for various bioconversions. For the present case, the seedcake or presscake was hydrolyzed with dilute (0.50% [v/v]) H2SO4 and enzymes to release sugars including glucose, xylose, galactose, arabinose, and mannose. Then, the hydrolyzate was used to produce acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE). Using 100 gL−1 presscake (prior to pretreatment), 19.22 gL−1 of ABE was successfully produced of which butanol was the major product. In this process, an ABE productivity of 0.48 gL−1 h−1 was obtained. These results are superior to glucose fermentation to produce ABE in which an ABE productivity of 0.42 gL−1 h−1 was obtained. Use of Yellow Top to produce butanol has the following advantages: (i) it is an economic feedstock and is expected to produce butanol economically; (ii) it avoids pollution concerns when not land filled; and (iii) rate of ABE production is not inhibited when fermented this substrate. It is suggested that the potential of this feedstock be further explored by optimizing process parameters for this valuable fermentation. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Acetone butanol ethanol (ABE) was produced in an integrated fed-batch fermentation-gas stripping product-recovery system using Clostridium beijerinckii BA101, with H2 and CO2 as the carrier gases. This technique was applied in order to eliminate the substrate and product inhibition that normally restricts ABE production and sugar utilization to less than 20 g l–1 and 60 g l–1, respectively. In the integrated fed-batch fermentation and product recovery system, solvent productivities were improved to 400% of the control batch fermentation productivities. In a control batch reactor, the culture used 45.4 g glucose l–1 and produced 17.6 g total solvents l–1 (yield 0.39 g g–1, productivity 0.29 g l–1 h–1). Using the integrated fermentation-gas stripping product-recovery system with CO2 and H2 as carrier gases, we carried out fed-batch fermentation experiments and measured various characteristics of the fermentation, including ABE production, selectivity, yield and productivity. The fed-batch reactor was operated for 201 h. At the end of the fermentation, an unusually high concentration of total acids (8.5 g l–1) was observed. A total of 500 g glucose was used to produce 232.8 g solvents (77.7 g acetone, 151.7 g butanol, 3.4 g ethanol) in 1 l culture broth. The average solvent yield and productivity were 0.47 g g–1 and 1.16 g l–1 h–1, respectively. 相似文献

ABE production from corn: a recent economic evaluation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This article details an economic assessment of butanol production from corn using the newly developed hyper-butanol-producing
strain of Clostridium beijerinckii BA101. Butanol is produced in batch reactors and recovered by distillation. For a plant with 153,000 metric tons of acetone,
butanol, and ethanol (ABE) production capacity, the production equipment cost and total working capital cost is US$33.47×106 and US$110.46×106, respectively. Based on a corn price (C
p) of US$79.23 ton−1 (US$2.01 bushel−1), an ABE yield of 0.42 (g ABE/g glucose) butanol price is projected to be US$0.34 kg−1. An improved yield of 0.50 will reduce this price to US$0.29 kg−1. Assumptions, such as by-product credit for gases and complete conversion of corn steep liquor (CSL) to fermentation by-products,
have been taken into consideration. An increased price of corn to US$197.10 ton−1 would result in a butanol price of US$0.47 kg−1. A grass-rooted plant would result in a butanol price of US$0.73 kg−1 (C
p US$79.23 ton−1). In a worst case scenario, the price of butanol would increase to US$1.07 kg−1 (C
p 197.10 ton−1 for a grass-rooted plant and assuming no credit for gases). This is based on the assumption that corn price would not increase
to more than US$197.10 ton−1.

Corn stalk was used as a support to immobilize Clostridia beijerinckii ATCC 55025 in the fermentation process of acetone, butanol, and ethanol production. The effect of the dilution rate on solvent
production was examined in a steady-state 20-day continuous flow operation. The maximum total solvent concentration of 8.99 g l−1 was obtained at a dilution rate of 0.2 h−1. Increasing the dilution rate between 0.2 and 1.0 h−1 resulted in an increased solvent productivity, and the highest solvent productivity was obtained at 5.06 g l−1 h−1 with a dilution rate of 1 h−1. The maximum solvent yield from glucose of 0.32 g g−1 was observed at 0.25 h−1. The cell adsorption and morphology change during the growth on corn stalk support were examined by the SEM. 相似文献

Cassava flour (CF), a cost-effective source of starch, was employed as a substrate for successful acetone-butanol-ethanol
(ABE) production by batch-fermentation with Clostridium beijerinckii. The effect of temperature, initial concentration of CF and chemical/enzymatic hydrolysis were studied in a 23 factorial design. Results revealed that temperature and initial concentration of substrate exert a significant effect on
ABE production, as well as interactions of temperature with the other variables. Solvent production was maximized when working
at 40°C, 60 g l−1 CF and enzymatic pretreatment. An average of 31.38 g l−1 ABE was produced after 96 h, with a productivity of 0.33 g l−1 h−1. A posterior randomized block design (3 × 2) showed that enzymatic hydrolysis (with saccharification periods of 6 h at 60°C)
enhances both reducing sugar and solvent production if compared to chemical pretreatments. Average ABE production in this
case was 27.28 g l−1, with a productivity of 0.28 g l−1 h−1. Results suggest that CF may be a suitable substrate for industrial ABE production. 相似文献
