Abstract: | A neutralizing agent combination strategy was developed to enhance the succinic acid production by Actinobacillus succinogenes ATCC 55618. First, a maximal succinic acid production of 48.2 g/L was obtained at a culture pH of 7.5. Second, NaOH and KOH
were screened to identify the optimal neutralizing agent for pH control. However, the production of succinic acid did not
increase, and severe cell flocculation was observed due to a high concentration of metal ions when only one neutralizing agent
was used to control pH. Finally, a neutralizing agent combination strategy was developed with a supply of neutralizing agents
with OH− and carbonate. The cell flocculation was eliminated, and a maximum succinic acid production of 59.2 g/L was obtained with
5 M NaOH and 40 g/L of MgCO3; this production was 27.9% higher than that obtained with NaOH alone. The results obtained in this study may be useful for
the large-scale industrial production of succinic acid. |
