  • Culture of Scenedesmus Acuminatus in Corn Steep Liquor
    Journal of Agricultural Science and Technology B 7 (2017) 346-350 doi: 10.17265/2161-6264/2017.05.007 D DAVID PUBLISHING Culture of Scenedesmus acuminatus in Corn Steep Liquor Cristiane Tomas Kubo, Rafael Luan Sehn Canevesi, Edson Antonio da Silva, Nyamien Yahaut Sebastien and Tatiana Rodrigues da Silva Baumgartner Center of Engineering and Exact Sciences, Western Paraná State University, Toledo 85903-000, Brazil Abstract: Microalgae have been evaluated as a source of lipids for biodiesel production. They can be grown on effluent and produce biomass while removing organic and mineral components from the medium. The use of agro-industrial wastes for the production of microalgae is an alternative to reduce the costs related to the composition of the culture medium, thus reducing operational costs considerably. This work was conceived as a research about the cultivation of microalgae Scenedesmus acuminatus on the substrate composed by corn steep liquor. A central composite design (CCD) was carried to study the influence of the effluent and inoculum concentration on the chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the culture. Statistical analysis indicated that the percentage of inoculum and effluent had an influence on the COD. The cultivation, together with the coagulation procedure, was efficient for the removal of organic matter, verified through the COD reduction and changing of pH value. These two parameters reached the appropriate level according to the standard required by current legislation. Key words: Scenedesmus, corn steep liquor, chemical oxygen demand, biomass, microalgae. 1. Introduction The use of microalgae for wastewater treatment has been suggested for several years because of its ability New alternatives for obtaining raw materials for to effectively and inexpensively remove excess biodiesel synthesis have been researched, among them, nutrients and other contaminants, which are the causes microalgae.

  • Microbiological Quality Enhancement of Nutritive Value and Shelf-Life of Corn-Meal (OGI) Using Lactobacillus Plantarum
    International Research Journal of Pharmacy and Medical Sciences ISSN (Online): 2581-3277 Microbiological Quality Enhancement of Nutritive Value and Shelf-Life of Corn-Meal (OGI) Using Lactobacillus plantarum Takon I. A., Regil Otu Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Biological Sciences, University of Calabar, Calabar - Nigeria Corresponding Author Email: iquotee @yahoo.com or iatakon @unical.edu.ng 234-8034505221 Abstract—The microbiological quality enhancement of the nutritive value and shelf-life of cornmeal (ogi) using Lactobaccillus plantarum has been investigated using standard microbiological methods. Fifty grammes of ogi were prepared from moist steeped corn grains for 2 to 3 days, wet milled, sieved and dried. Corn steep liquor was enriched with L. plantarum strain that was amplified using UV-irradiation in a limiting lysine medium, ranging from 0.1ml – 2.0mls. The proximate composition for enriched cornmeal was: 2% crude fibre, 7.5% fats, 9.50% ash, 19.96% protein, 24.05% carbohydrate and 43.00% moisture respectively, as compared to fresh wet cornmeal without enrichment with L. plantarum, which had 6.68% protein, fat 0.50%, ash 30.00%, crude fibre 0.40%, carbohydrate 30.82% and moisture 30.00%. Unenhanced dry cornmeal had 0.20% fat, 1.20% crude fibre, 4.42% protein, 10.0% ash, 10.00% moisture and 32.38% carbohydrate. The enhanced nutritive value was significantly different at P>0.005, when compared to the fresh cornmeal. This enhanced nutritive value will help improve food security and may eliminate certain malnutrition related childhood diseases in under-developed and developing countries. Keywords— Food quality, Lactobacillus plantarum, corn meal, enhancement.

  • N-Butanol Fermentation and Integrated Recovery Process: Adsorption, Gas
    N-Butanol Fermentation and Integrated Recovery Process: Adsorption, Gas Stripping and Pervaporation Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Fangfang Liu, B.S. Graduate Program in Chemical Engineering The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Professor Shang-Tian Yang, Advisor Professor Aravind Asthagiri Professor David Wood Copyright by Fangfang Liu 2014 Abstract As a second generation biofuel, butanol has attracted increasing attention during the last decade. Biobutanol can be produced through traditional ABE fermentation. However, fermentative butanol production is not yet economically competitive with petrochemical process, mainly due to high substrate cost, low product yield and concentration and high recovery cost. Many efforts have been made to improve fermentative butanol production. Typical batch ABE fermentation usually gives a final butanol titer of 12-14 g/L. Butanol recovery from this dilute solution by distillation is very energy-intensive. Many alternative separation techniques have been developed. Among them, adsorption is a promising technique for its simple operation. In order to selectively recover butanol and release the product inhibition effect, four commercial materials were identified as potential adsorbents for butanol separation. These four adsorbents, including activated carbon Norit ROW 0.8, zeolite CBV901, polymeric resin Dowex Optipore L-493 and SD-2, showed high specific loading and adsorbent-aqueous partitioning coefficients for butanol. Adsorption isotherms and their regressions with Langmiur model were further studied for these adsorbents, which provided the theoretical basis for predicting the amount of butanol adsorbed on these adsorbents. In batch fermentation with in situ ii adsorption without pH control, activated carbon showed the best performance with 21.9 g/L total butanol production, and 71.3 g/L glucose consumption.
