Dissolved-oxygen-stat fed-batch fermentation of 1,3-dihydroxyacetone from glycerol by Gluconobacter oxydans ZJB09112

This study investigated the effects of DO concentration on DHA fermentation and of DO-stat fed-batch fermentation using a pH control strategy, on 1,3-dihydroxyacetone (DHA) production. The results showed that DO-stat fed-batch fermentation with pH-shift control was the optimal bioprocess for DHA production. DO-stat fed-batch fermentation was carried out at 30% air saturation, and the culture pH was automatically maintained at pH 6.0 during the first 20 h and then shifted to pH 5.0 until the end of the fermentation. An optimal DHA concentration of 175.9 ± 6.7 g/L, with a production yield to glycerol of 0.87 ± 0.04 g/g, was obtained at 72 h of DO-stat fed-batch fermentation at 30°C in a 15 L fermenter.

An Algorithm for operating a fed-batch fermentation using quasi-steady state

The determination of an optimum feeding profile of a fed-batch fermentation requires the solution of a singular optimum control problem, which is often complicated by changes in the process kinetics during the fermentation. The procedure of optimization may be sufficiently simple, if the feeding part of fermentation is carried out in the quasi-steady state. In this work an algorithm for operating a fed-batch fermentation using mentioned regime is offered. The algorithm supposes a periodical correction of the feeding strategy. Applying to fed-batch lysine fermentation demonstrate efficacy of this algorithm over frequently used strategies.     

An adaptive control algorithm for fed-batch culture

The implementation of adaptive control for a fed-batch culture in order to maximize the output of product based on a self-adjusting model is discussed in the present work. Optimization methods were applied to the generalized mathematical model of a fed-batch fermentation process to determine control algorithms that could be used for on-line process control. The efficiency of the proposed adaptive algorithms was investigated by simulating a model system. The model of amylotytic enzyme fermentation that was proposed by the authors was taken from a real process. Dynamic modelling has shown that the main problem of realization is connected with the on-line identification of the adaptive model's parameters. To avoid this problem, we have introduced special limitations on the parameters' time variations that increased the convergence of the identification algorithm. The results of the investigation have shown the efficiency of the proposed adaptive algorithms, and the results of this work should be investigated for real process control.     

Mixed-feed exponential feeding for fed-batch culture of recombinant methylotrophic yeast

A simple, accurate model capable of predicting cell growth and methanol utilization during the mixed substrate fed-batch fermentation of Mut^S recombinant Pichia pastoris was developed and was used to design an exponential feeding strategy for mixed substrate fed-batch fermentation at a constant specific growth rate. Mixed substrate feeding has been shown to boost productivity in recombinant fed-batch culture of P. pastoris, while fixed growth rate exponential feeding during fed-batch culture is a useful tool in process optimization and control.     

Enhancement of 5-aminolevulinate production with recombinant Escherichia coli using batch and fed-batch culture system

5-Aminolevulinate (ALA) production with recombinant Escherichia coli Rosetta (DE3)/pET28a(+)-hemA was studied. In batch fermentation, the addition of glucose and glycine was effective to improve ALA production. Then the fed-batch fermentation was conducted with continuous feeding of precursors. When the concentrations of succinic acid and glycine were 7.0 g/l and 4.0 g/l, respectively, in the feeding, the ALA yield reached 4.1g/l. But the molar yield (ALA/glycine) was decreased in the fed-batch fermentation compared to batch fermentation. And it was found that the pH control during fed-batch cultivation was very important for the cell growth and ALA production. A two-stage pH value controlling strategy was suggested, in which, the pH value in the first 6h was regulated at pH 5.9, after then at pH 6.2, and the ALA yield was as high as 6.6g/l via fed-batch fermentation.     

Multi-objective optimization in Aspergillus niger fermentation for selective product enhancement

A multi-objective optimization formulation that reflects the multi-substrate optimization in a multi-product fermentation is proposed in this work. This formulation includes the application of ε-constraint to generate the trade-off solution for the enhancement of one selective product in a multi-product fermentation, with simultaneous minimization of the other product within a threshold limit. The formulation has been applied to the fed-batch fermentation of Aspergillus niger that produces a number of enzymes during the course of fermentation, and of these, catalase and protease enzyme expression have been chosen as the enzymes of interest. Also, this proposed formulation has been applied in the environment of three control variables, i.e. the feed rates of sucrose, nitrogen source and oxygen and a set of trade-off solutions have been generated to develop the pareto-optimal curve. We have developed and experimentally evaluated the optimal control profiles for multiple substrate feed additions in the fed-batch fermentation of A. niger to maximize catalase expression along with protease expression within a threshold limit and vice versa. An increase of about 70% final catalase and 31% final protease compared to conventional fed-batch cultivation were obtained. Novel methods of oxygen supply through liquid-phase H₂O₂ addition have been used with a view to overcome limitations of aeration due to high gas–liquid transport resistance. The multi-objective optimization problem involved linearly appearing control variables and the decision space is constrained by state and end point constraints. The proposed multi-objective optimization is solved by differential evolution algorithm, a relatively superior population-based stochastic optimization strategy.     

Effect of setpoint on L-lysine fermentation

In control of a bioprocess, setpoint of fed-batch fermentation processes has a great influence on both the cost and the operating efficiency. Determination of a setpoint depends on the system and objective function. This work investigates two operating conditions for a fed-batch culture of L-lysine production. One is to maintain the reducing sugar concentration (RSC) on a constant setpoint, whereas the other has a piecewise variation of the RSC setpoint. Productivity, yield, and a cost function are employed to evaluate the performance of different setpoints on the fermentation process. Constant setpoint which is commonly used in fed-batch culture is not the best approach in L-lysine fermentation. Piecewise variation of setpoint shows that the better policy is to set the RSC at a higher concentration in the early cell growth stage then to decrease the RSC to a lower level.     

A simple Pichia pastoris fermentation and downstream processing strategy for making recombinant pandemic Swine Origin Influenza A virus Hemagglutinin protein

The present Influenza vaccine manufacturing process has posed a clear impediment to initiation of rapid mass vaccination against spreading pandemic influenza. New vaccine strategies are therefore needed that can accelerate the vaccine production. Pichia offers several advantages for rapid and economical bulk production of recombinant proteins and, hence, can be attractive alternative for producing an effective influenza HA based subunit vaccine. The recombinant Pichia harboring the transgene was subjected to fed-batch fermentation at 10 L scale. A simple fermentation and downstream processing strategy is developed for high-yield secretory expression of the recombinant Hemagglutinin protein of pandemic Swine Origin Influenza A virus using Pichia pastoris via fed-batch fermentation. Expression and purification were optimized and the expressed recombinant Hemagglutinin protein was verified by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, Western blot and MALDI-TOF analysis. In this paper, we describe a fed-batch fermentation protocol for the secreted production of Swine Influenza A Hemagglutinin protein in the P. pastoris GS115 strain. We have shown that there is a clear relationship between product yield and specific growth rate. The fed-batch fermentation and downstream processing methods optimized in the present study have immense practical application for high-level production of the recombinant H1N1 HA protein in a cost effective way using P. pastoris.     

Optimization of human serum albumin production in methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris by repeated fed-batch fermentation

An optimization method for repeated fed-batch fermentation was established with the aim of improving the recombinant human serum albumin (rHSA) production in Pichia pastoris. A simulation model for fed-batch fermentation was formulated and the optimal methanol-feeding policy calculated by dynamic programming method using five different methanol-feeding periods. The necessary state variables were collected from the calculated results and used for further optimization of repeated fed-batch fermentation. The optimal operation policy was investigated using the pre-collected state variables by estimating the overall profit per total methanol-feeding time. The calculated results indicated that the initial cell mass from the 2nd fed-batch fermentation on should be set at 35 or 40 g and methanol-feeding time at 264 h. In repeated fed-batch fermentation using the optimal operation policy, actual culture volume was in good agreement with the values simulated by model equations, but some discrepancy was observed in rHSA production. Minimum experiments were therefore carried out to re-evaluate rHSA production levels, which were then applied in re-calculations to determine the optimal operation policy. The optimal policy for repeated fed-batch fermentation established in the present study (i.e., 4-times-repeated fed-batch fermentation) achieved a 47% increase in annual rHSA production. Optimization of the culture period also brought about a 28% increase in annual rHSA production even in simple (not repeated) fed-batch fermentation.     

Fed-batch versus batch fermentation

This article concerns the comparison between batch and fed-batch fermentation based on productivity and including the analysis of the implications on product manufacturing cost. The calculation method of productivity is based on the assumption that batch production rate data are applicable to fed-batch fermentation and that, within a certain range of concentrations, the percent rate of change of batch production rate with respect to time is proportional to the difference of product concentration at maximum production rate minus instant concentration. General correlations are developed and plotted in diagrams for easy practical application of the proposed method of calculation. Correlations so established may find application to design and to planning and control of operating conditions of fermentation plants. Example calculations refer to penicillin G production.     

A substrate feeding strategy--using an oxystat for L-phenylalanine fermentation by Corynebacterium glutamicum

Summary A substrate feeding strategy using an oxystat was first successfully applied to a fed-batch phenylalanine fermentation. The control method allowed the fermentation to be under low dissolved oxygen tension, which was favourable phenylalanine formation, and to be from substrate inhibition during the course of fed-batch operation. The final product concentration was 3 times higher than in a batch culture.

Continuous Cellulosic Bioethanol Fermentation by Cyclic Fed-Batch Cocultivation

Cocultivation of cellulolytic and saccharolytic microbial populations is a promising strategy to improve bioethanol production from the fermentation of recalcitrant cellulosic materials. Earlier studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of cocultivation in enhancing ethanolic fermentation of cellulose in batch fermentation. To further enhance process efficiency, a semicontinuous cyclic fed-batch fermentor configuration was evaluated for its potential in enhancing the efficiency of cellulose fermentation using cocultivation. Cocultures of cellulolytic Clostridium thermocellum LQRI and saccharolytic Thermoanaerobacter pseudethanolicus strain X514 were tested in the semicontinuous fermentor as a model system. Initial cellulose concentration and pH were identified as the key process parameters controlling cellulose fermentation performance in the fixed-volume cyclic fed-batch coculture system. At an initial cellulose concentration of 40 g liter⁻¹, the concentration of ethanol produced with pH control was 4.5-fold higher than that without pH control. It was also found that efficient cellulosic bioethanol production by cocultivation was sustained in the semicontinuous configuration, with bioethanol production reaching 474 mM in 96 h with an initial cellulose concentration of 80 g liter⁻¹ and pH controlled at 6.5 to 6.8. These results suggested the advantages of the cyclic fed-batch process for cellulosic bioethanol fermentation by the cocultures.
