The Continuous fermentation of Jerusalem artichoke juice to ethanol by free cells of Kluyveromyces marxianus UCD (FST) 55-82 has been studied in a continuous-stirred-tank bioreactor at 35 degrees C and pH 4.6. A maximum yield of 90% of the theoretical was obtained at a dilution rate of 0.05 h(-1). About 95% of the sugars were utilized at dilution rates lower than 0.15 h(-1). Volumetric ethanol productivity and volumetric biomass productivity reached maximum values of 7 g ETOH/L/h and 0.6 g dry wt/L/h, respectively, at a dilution rate of 0.2 h(-1). The maintenance energy coefficient for K. marxianus culture was found to be 0.46 g sugar/g biomass/h/ Oscillatory behavior was following a change in dilution rate from a previous steady state and from batch to continuous culture. Values of specific ethanol production rate and specific sugar uptake were found to increase almost linearly with the increase of the dilution rate. The maximum specific ethanol production rate and maximum specific sugar uptake rate were found to be 2.6 g ethanol/g/ cell/h and 7.9 sugars/g cell/h, respectively. Washout occurred at a dilution rate of 0.41 h(-1).  相似文献

The cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 24553, were immobilized in k-carrageenan and packed in a tapered glass column reactor for ethanol production from pineapple cannery waste at temperature 30 degrees C and pH 4.5. The maximum productivity was 42.8 g ethanol 1(-1) h(-1) at a dilution rate of 1.5 h(-1). The volumetric ethanol productivity of the immobilized cells was ca. 11.5 times higher than the free cells. The immobilized cell reactor was operated over a period of 87 days at a dilution rate of 1.0 h(-1), without any loss in the immobilized cell activity. The maximum specific ethanol productivity and specific sugar uptake rate of the immobilized cells were 1.2 g ethanol g(-1) dry wt. cell h(-1) and 2.6 g sugar g(-1) dry wt. cell h(-1), respectively, at a dilution rate of 1.5 h(-1).  相似文献

Immobilized yeast cells in agar gel beads were used in a packed bed reactor for the production of ethanol from cane molasses at 30°C, pH 4.5. The maximum productivity, 79.5g ethanol/l.h was obtained with 195g/l reducing sugar as feed. Substrate (64.2%) was utilized at a dilution of 1.33h-1. The immobilized cell reactor was operated continuously at a constant dilution rate of 0.67h-1 for 100 days. The maximum specific ethanol productivity and specific sugar uptake rate were 0.610g ethanol/g cell.h and 1.275g sugar/g cell.h, respectively.  相似文献

The effect of temperature and pH on the kinetics of ethanol production by free and calcium alginate immobilized cells of Kluyveromyces marxianus grown on Jerusalem artichoke extract was investigated. With the free cells, the ethanol and biomass yields were relatively constant over the temperature range 25-35 degrees C, but dropped sharply beyond 35 degrees C. Other kinetic parameters, specific growth rate, specific ethanol production rate, and specific total sugar uptake rate were maximum at 35 degrees C. However, with the immobilized cells, ethanol yield remained almost constant in the temperature range 25-45 degrees C, and the specific ethanol production rate and specific total sugar uptake rate attained their maximum values at 40 degrees C. For the pH range between 3 and 7, the free-cell optimum for growth and product formation was found to be ca. pH 5. At this pH, the specific growth rate was 0.35 h(-1) and specific ethanol production rate was 2.83 g/g/h. At values higher or lower than pH 5, a sharp decrease in specific ethanol production rate as well as specific growth rate was observed. In comparison, the immobilized cells showed a broad optimum pH profile. The best ethanol production rates were observed between pH 4 and 6.  相似文献

Natural sorghum bagasse without any treatment was used to immobilize Saccharomyces cerevisiae at 0.6+/-0.2g dry cell weight (DCW)/g dry sorghum bagasse weight (DSW) through solid-state or semi-solid state incubation. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the carriers revealed the friendship between yeast cells and sorghum bagasse are adsorption and embedding. The ethanol productivity of the immobilized cells was 2.24 times higher than the free cells. In repeated batch fermentation with an initial sugar concentration of 200g/L, nearly 100% total sugar was consumed after 16 h. The ethanol yield and productivity were 4.9 g/g consumed sugar on average and 5.72 g/(Lh), respectively. The immobilized cell reactor was operated over a period of 20 days without breakage of the carriers, while the free cell concentration in the effluent remained less than 5 g/L thoughout the fermentation. The maximum ethanol productivity of 16.68 g/(Lh) appeared at the dilution rate of 0.3h(-1).  相似文献

Summary Zymomonas mobilis cells were immobilized into small 1 mm diameter beads of Ca-alginate in order to minimize mass transfer limitations and maximize immobilized cell activity. A combination of small bead size with a high cell concentration of 58 g dry wt. cell per lit. bead volume resulted in high ethanol productivities using a newly designed packed bed bioreactor system. Steady-state dilution rates ranging from 0.4 h-1 to 3.9 h-1 were run resulting in a maximum productivity of 102 g ethanol/l/h for an inlet substrate concentration of 100 g glu/l and 87% conversion. The bioreactor was run continuously at a fixed dilution rate for 384 h and short intermittent treatment of the beads with CaCl2 temporarily increased ethanol productivity to a maximum of 116 g ethanol/l/h.  相似文献

Rapid fermentation of cane molasses into ethanol has been studied in batch, continuous (free-cell and cell-immobilized systems) by a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae at temperature 30 degrees C and pH 5.0. The maximum productivity of ethanol obtained in immobilized system was 28.6 g L(-1) h(-1). The cells were immobilized by natural mode on a carrier of natural origin and retention of 0.132 g cells/g carrier was achieved. The immobilized-cell column was operated continuously at steady state over a period of 35 days. Based on the parameter data monitored from the system, mathematical analysis has been made and rate equations proposed, and the values of specific productivity of ethanol and specific growth rate for immobilized cells computed. It has been established that immobilized cells exhibit higher specific rate of ethanol formation compared to free cells but the specific growth rate appears to be comparatively low. The yield of ethanol in the immobilized-cell system is also higher than in the free-cell system.  相似文献

Summary Recycled immobilized cells of Kluyveromyces fragilis ATCC 28244 were used for repeated batch production of ethanol from the inulin sugars derived from Jerusalem artichoke tubers. Using 10% initial sugar concentration, a maximum ethanol concentration of 48 g/l was achieved in 7 h when the immobilized cell concentration in the Ca alginate beads was 72 g dry wt. immobilized cell/l bead volume. The maximum ethanol production rate was 13.5 g ethanol/l bioreactor volume/h. The same Ca alginate beads containing the cells were used repeatedly for 11 batch runs starting with fresh medium at the beginning of each run. The ethanol yield was found to be almost constant at 96% of the theoretical for all 11 batch runs, while the maximum ethanol production rate during the last batch run was found to be 70% of the original ethanol rate obtained in the first batch run.  相似文献

Summary Vertical Rotating Immobilized Cell Reactor was designed and built for glucose conversion into ethanol. Immobilized biomass units withZ. mobilis cells attached into polyurethane foam discs were fixed along a rotating shaft inside the bioreactor. The effect of rotation speed on the concentration of immobilized biomass was studied. Stability of the bioreactor over long-term operation was dependent on the concentration of the immobilized biomass. With fermentation carried out at 6 rpm a constant active immobilized cell concentration of only 34.5 g/l was maintained and used to convert up to 140 g glucose/l into more than 70 g ethanol/l with a volumetric ethanol productivity of 63 g/l/h.  相似文献

The production of ethanol from carob pod extract by free and immobilized Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells in batch and fed-batch culture was investigated. Fed-batch culture proved to be a better fermentation system for the production of ethanol than batch culture. In fed-batch culture, both free and immobilized S. cerevisiae cells gave the same maximum concentration (62 g/L) of final ethanol at an initial sugar concentration of 300 g/L and F = 167 mL/h. The maximum ethanol productivity (4.4 g/L h) was obtained with both free and immobilized cells at a substrate concentration of 300 g/L and F = 334 mL/h. In repeated fed-batch culture, immobilized S. cerevisiae cells gave a higher overall ethanol concentration compared with the free cells. The immobilized S. cerevisiae cells in Ca-alginate beads retained their ability to produce ethanol for 10 days. (c) 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

The thermotolerant, ethanol-producing yeast strain Kluyveromyces marxianus IMB3 was immobilized in calcium alginate and used in a continuous flow bioreactor to produce ethanol from molasses at 45?°C. The molasses was diluted to yield a number of final sugar concentrations and the effect of molasses sugar concentration on ethanol production by the continuous system was examined. Although maximum ethanol concentrations were obtained using sugar concentrations of 140?g/l, within 10?h of introducing the feed to the column bioreactors, those ethanol concentrations subsequently decreased to lower levels over a 48?h period. Examination of viable yeast cell number within the immobilization matrix indicated a dramatic reduction over this time period. At lower molasses concentrations, ethanol production by the continuous flow system remained relatively constant over this time period. In addition, the effect of residence time on ethanol production by the continuous flow bioreactor was examined at a fixed molasses sugar concentration (120?g/l) and a residence time of 0.66?h was found to be optimal on the basis of volumetric productivity. Efficiencies of the continuous flow bioreactor configuration used in these studies ranged from 31–76%.  相似文献

Cells of Candida guilliermondii entrapped in Ca-alginate beads were used for xylitol production, from concentrated hemicellulose hydrolyzate of sugarcane bagasse, in a fluidized bed bioreactor (FBR). The maximum xylitol concentration 28.9 g xylitol/L was obtained at a high aeration rate of 600 mL/min after 70 h of fermentation, indicating that the use of high aeration rate in this system is favored for better oxygen transfer into the immobilized cells. The specific xylitol productivity and the xylitol yield were of 0.4 g xylitol/L.h and 0.58 g xylitol/g xylose respectively. The immobilization efficiency at the end of the fermentation was of 65 %. After 90 h of fermentation xylitol productivity and yield decreased to 0.25 g xylitol/L.h and 0.47 g xylitol/g xylose respectively, indicating the beginning of xylitol consumption by the yeast. The use of FBR system with immobilized cells presented high xylitol yield and productivity.  相似文献

Thermotolerant Kluyveromyces marxianus var. marxianus IMB3 yeast strain was immobilized on Kissiris (mineral glass foam derived from lava) in column packed reactors, and used for ethanol production from glucose or molasses under continuous culture conditions at temperatures between 40 and 50°C. Both ethanol yield and fermentation efficiency were highest at 45°C and a dilution rate (D) of 0.15/h. Increasing sugar concentration led to an increase in ethanol yield of up to 68.6 and 55.9 g/l on approx. 200g glucose or molasses, respectively. Optimum fermentation efficiency (experimental yields over theoretical maximum yields) however was at about 15% sugar for both glucose and molasses. Slight aeration (25 ml of air/min) through the medium addition line was found advantageous due to its mixing effect and probable maintenance of activity.  相似文献

Summary Pichia stipitis NRRL Y-7124 yeast cells were for the first time immobilized both in agar gel beads and on fine nylon net for ethanol fermentation on D-xylose, in order to investigate the possibility of using the biocatalyst for improved utilization of the biomass pentose fraction. With free cells the initial xylose level affected little ethanol production, with a maximum of 22 g/l ethanol obtained in 5 days on 5% and of 40 g/l in 8 days on 10% xylose, and an average volumetric productivity of about 0.22 g/lh. The maximum ethanol concentration of 19.5% on 5% xylose with the nylon net attached cells in a continuous packed-bed column reactor was obtained with 35 h residence time. The volumetric productivities of 0.56 g/lh at 19.5 g/l ethanol and 1.0 g/lh at 15.0 g/l ethanol were markedly higher than those obtained with free cells. The stability of the immobilized biocatalyst was excellent. The same reactor could be used for at least 80 days without significant activity loss.  相似文献

Production of fuel ethanol from sugar beet juice, using cells immobilized on loofa sponge was investigated. Based on ethanol productivity and ease of cell immobilization, a flocculating yeast strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae IR2 was selected for ethanol production from sugar beet juice. It was found that raw sugar beet juice was an optimal substrate for ethanol production, requiring neither pH adjustment nor nitrogen source supplement. When compared with a 2 l bubble column bioreactor, mixing was not sufficient in an 8 l bioreactor containing a bed of sliced loofa sponges and consequently, the immobilized cells were not uniformly distributed within the bed. Most of the cells were immobilized in the lower part of the bed and this resulted in decreased ethanol productivity. By using an external loop bioreactor, constructing the fixed bed with cylindrical loofa sponges, dividing the bed into upper, middle and lower sections with approximately 1 cm spaces between them and circulating the broth through the loop during the immobilization, uniform cell distribution within the bed was achieved. Using this method, the system was scaled up to 50 l and when compared with the 2 l bubble column bioreactor, there were no significant differences (P > 0.05) in ethanol productivity and yield. By using external loop bioreactor to immobilize the cells uniformly on the loofa sponge beds, efficient large scale ethanol production systems can be constructed.  相似文献

High temperature ethanol fermentation from sugarcane molasses B using thermophilic Crabtree-positive yeast Kluyveromyces sp. IIPE453 was carried out in batch bioreactor system. Strain was found to have a maximum specific ethanol productivity of 0.688 g/g/h with 92 % theoretical ethanol yield. Aeration and initial sugar concentration were tuning parameters to regulate metabolic pathways of the strain for either cell mass or higher ethanol production during growth with an optimum sugar to cell ratio 33:1 requisite for fermentation. An assessment of ethanol recovery from fermentation broth via simulation study illustrated that distillation-based conventional recovery was significantly better in terms of energy efficiency and overall mass recovery in comparison to coupled solvent extraction–azeotropic distillation technique for the same.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to examine ethanol production from concentrated food waste hydrolysates using whole cells of S. cerevisiae immobilized on corn stalks. In order to improve cell immobilization efficiency, biological modification of the carrier was carried out by cellulase hydrolysis. The results show that proper modification of the carrier with cellulase hydrolysis was suitable for cell immobilization. The mechanism proposed, cellulase hydrolysis, not only increased the immobilized cell concentration, but also disrupted the sleek surface to become rough and porous, which enhanced ethanol production. In batch fermentation with an initial reducing sugar concentration of 202.64 ± 1.86 g/l, an optimal ethanol concentration of 87.91 ± 1.98 g/l was obtained using a modified corn stalk-immobilized cell system. The ethanol concentration produced by the immobilized cells was 6.9% higher than that produced by the free cells. Ethanol production in the 14th cycle repeated batch fermentation demonstrated the enhanced stability of the immobilized yeast cells. Under continuous fermentation in an immobilized cell reactor, the maximum ethanol concentration of 84.85 g/l, and the highest ethanol yield of 0.43 g/g (of reducing sugar) were achieved at hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 3.10 h, whereas the maximum volumetric ethanol productivity of 43.54 g/l/h was observed at a HRT of 1.55 h.  相似文献

Fermentation of sugar by Saccharomyces cerevisiae, for production of ethanol in an immobilized cell reactor (ICR) was successfully carried out to improve the performance of the fermentation process. The fermentation set-up was comprised of a column packed with beads of immobilized cells. The immobilization of S. cerevisiae was simply performed by the enriched cells cultured media harvested at exponential growth phase. The fixed cell loaded ICR was carried out at initial stage of operation and the cell was entrapped by calcium alginate. The production of ethanol was steady after 24 h of operation. The concentration of ethanol was affected by the media flow rates and residence time distribution from 2 to 7 h. In addition, batch fermentation was carried out with 50 g/l glucose concentration. Subsequently, the ethanol productions and the reactor productivities of batch fermentation and immobilized cells were compared. In batch fermentation, sugar consumption and ethanol production obtained were 99.6% and 12.5% v/v after 27 h while in the ICR, 88.2% and 16.7% v/v were obtained with 6 h retention time. Nearly 5% ethanol production was achieved with high glucose concentration (150 g/l) at 6 h retention time. A yield of 38% was obtained with 150 g/l glucose. The yield was improved approximately 27% on ICR and a 24 h fermentation time was reduced to 7 h. The cell growth rate was based on the Monod rate equation. The kinetic constants (K(s) and mu(m)) of batch fermentation were 2.3 g/l and 0.35 g/lh, respectively. The maximum yield of biomass on substrate (Y(X-S)) and the maximum yield of product on substrate (Y(P-S)) in batch fermentations were 50.8% and 31.2% respectively. Productivity of the ICR were 1.3, 2.3, and 2.8 g/lh for 25, 35, 50 g/l of glucose concentration, respectively. The productivity of ethanol in batch fermentation with 50 g/l glucose was calculated as 0.29 g/lh. Maximum production of ethanol in ICR when compared to batch reactor has shown to increase approximately 10-fold. The performance of the two reactors was compared and a respective rate model was proposed. The present research has shown that high sugar concentration (150 g/l) in the ICR column was successfully converted to ethanol. The achieved results in ICR with high substrate concentration are promising for scale up operation. The proposed model can be used to design a lager scale ICR column for production of high ethanol concentration.  相似文献

The yeast Pachysolen tannophilus was entrapped in calcium alginate beads to ferment D-xylose on a continous basis in the presence of high cell densities. Experimental operating variables included the feed D-xylose concentration, the dilution rate, and the fermentor biomass concentration. Under favorable operating conditions, cultures retained at least 50% of their initial productivity after 26 days of operation. The specific ehanol production rate was dependent on the substrate level in the fermentor, passing through an optimum when the D-xylose concentration was between 28 and 35 g/L. Consequently, reactor productivity increased with dilution rate and feed D-xylose concentration until a maximum was reached. The ethanol content of the effluent always decreased with increasing dilution rate, but excessive dilution rates diminished the ethanol content without increasing productivity. Unlike production rate, ethanol yield declined monotonically from 0.35 g/g as the fermentor substrate concentration increased. The yield was 69% of that theoretically possible when the D-xylose concentration was near zero, as opposed to 42% when it was in the range supporting the optimum specific rate of ethanol production. As long as D-xylose was supplied to cells faster than they could consume it, productivity increased with the mass of cells immobilized. The effectiveness factor associated with the calcium alginte beads used in this system was 0.4, indicating that only 40% of the entrapped biomass was effective in converting D-xylose to ethanol because of diffusion limitations.  相似文献
