Abstract: | A fully integrated process for the microbial production and recovery of the aromatic amino acid L-phenylalanine is presented. Using a recombinant L-tyrosine (L-Tyr) auxotrophic Escherichia coli production strain, a fed-batch fermentation process was developed in a 20-l-scale bioreactor. Concentrations of glucose and L-Tyr were closed-loop-controlled in a fed-batch process. After achieving final L-phenylalanine (L-Phe) titres >30 g/l the process strategy was scaled up to 300-l pilot scale. In technical scale fermentation L-phenylalanine was continuously recovered via a fully integrated reactive extraction system achieving a maximum extraction rate of 110 g/h (final purity >99%). It was thus possible to increase L-Phe/glucose selectivity from 15 mol% without to 20.3 mol% with integrated product separation. |
