COMPARATIVE STUDY OF GLUCOSE AND XYLOSE PRODUCTION IN ENZYMATIC HYDROLYSIS RESULT BY BATCH AND FED BATCH METHOD

Comparison between batch and fed-batch production of rhamnolipid by Pseudomonas aeruginosa

This paper presents a comparison between batch and three different sets of fed batch fermentations forrhamnolipid production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The batch run was performed with 500 ml of culturemedium having the initial glycerol and sodium nitrate concentrations of 30 and 8.3 g/l, respectively. For a fedbatch run with nitrogen source in feed, 250 ml of the nitrogen exc...

Techno-economic Implications of Fed-batch Enzymatic Hydrolysis

Modeling and Simulation of Polyhydroxybutyrate Production by Protomonas extorquens in Fed-batch Culture

Modeling and simulation of Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production by Protomonas extorquens in fed-batch culture were conducted in this research. The fed-batch model, developed for this process, employed a kinetic model proposed by other researchers. Several kinetic models were investigated to choose the best model. The criterion for this selection was goodness of fit (δ2). Haldane kinetic model w...

A STUDY ON CLAVULANIC ACID PRODUCTION BY Streptomyces clavuligerus IN BATCH, FED-BATCH AND CONTINUOUS PROCESSES

Clavulanic acid (CA) is a potent inhibitor of β-lactamases, enzymes that are responsible for the hydrolysis of β-lactam antibiotics. It is a secondary metabolite produced by the filamentous aerobic bacterium Streptomyces clavuligerus in submerged cultivations. In the present work clavulanic acid production in batch, fed-batch and continuous bioreactors was studied with the objective of increasi...

Phytase production by the unconventional yeast Pichia anomala in fed batch and cyclic fed batch fermentations

A marked enhancement in the production of cell-bound phytase in Pichia anomala was achieved in cyclic fed batch fermentation (47333 UL -1 ) in comparison with that in batch (11569 UL -1 ) and fixed volume fed batch (36911 UL -1 ) fermentations in cane molasses medium. Phytase productivity was sustainable in cyclic fed batch fermentation over seven days, and therefore, this mode of fed batch fer...
