  • Production of Butanol by Clostridium Acetobutyucum in Extractive Fermentation System
    PRODUCTION OF BUTANOL BY CLOSTRIDIUM ACETOBUTYUCUM IN EXTRACTIVE FERMENTATION SYSTEM Shigeo ISHII, Masahito TAYA and Takeshi KOBAYASHI Department of Chemical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Nagoya University, Nagoya 464 Key Words: Biochemical Engineering, Extractive Fermentation, Butanol Production, Aliphatic Alcohol, Clostridium acetobutylicum Anextractive fermentation system was developed to prevent end-product inhibition of Clostridium aceto- butylicum IAM 19012, which mainly produces butanol and acetone. Butanol exhibited greater toxicity to the microorganism than acetone, and its growth was completely inhibited above 10 kg/m3 of butanol. As an extracting solvent suitable for acetone-butanol fermentation, oleyl alcohol (cw-9-octadecen-l-ol) and C-20 guerbet alcohol (branched-chain alcohol of carbon number, 20) were selected from among29 organic compounds, based on their nontoxicity to the microorganism. These two solvents had high partition coefficients for butanol, and could be reused without deterioration. In fermentation with the solvent (solvent phase : aqueous phase=2 : 5 (v/v)), the viability of the microorganism was resumed by the liquid-liquid extraction of butanol from the broth, and the amount of butanol produced was 2.6 times that in fermentation without extraction. tation by liquid-liquid extraction.

Chem. Int. Ed. 2018, 57(10), 2616-2620 Abstract The oxidative cleavage of 1,2‐diols is a fundamental organic transformation. The stoichiometric oxidants that are still predominantly used for such oxidative cleavage, such as H5IO6 , Pb(OAc)4 , and KMnO4 , generate stoichiometric hazardous waste. Herein, we describe a widely applicable and highly selective silver(I)‐catalyzed oxidative cleavage of 1,2‐diols that consumes atmospheric oxygen as the sole oxidant, thus serving as a potentially greener alternative to the classical transformations.

This clean mechanoenzymatic process (coined RAging) is also directly applicable to biomass, avoids many limitations associated with the use of cellulases, and produces glucose concentrations greater than three times that obtained by conventional methods.

Read Full License Page 1/17 Abstract Background Clostridium carboxidivorans P7 has the rare ability to metabolize syngas – a mixture of H2, CO and CO2 – by converting it directly into industrially relevant alcohols (hexanol, butanol and ethanol) and the corresponding acids (caproate, butyrate and acetate). The product titers and ratios are highly dependent on the fermentation parameters and the composition of the syngas and growth medium. The hexanol titers produced by C. carboxidivorans P7 have recently been improved by optimizing these conditions, but little is known about the toxicity of hexanol towards Clostridium species. We hypothesized that the hexanol titers currently produced by C. carboxidivorans P7 are limited by product toxicity. Results We tested our hypothesis by exposing C. carboxidivorans P7 to different concentrations of hexanol and found that growth inhibition started at 10–12 mM, with an IC50 of 17.5 ± 1.6 mM. The presence of 20 mM hexanol was acutely toxic to C.
