Optimization of the growth condition for maximum growth rate and protease production was carried out using Bacillus subtilis. The optimization of protease production using agro industrial waste product such as cassava waste as substrate was performed with statistical methodology based on experimental designs. The screening of twelve nutrients for their influence on protease production was achieved using a Plackett-Burman design. MgSO4.7H2O, casein and glucose were selected based on their positive influence on protease production. The selected components were optimized using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The optimum conditions are (% w/w): MgsO4.7H2O- 0.14, casein- 1.4 and glucose- 2.64. These conditions were validated experimentally which revealed an enhanced protease yield of 202.048 U/gds.

Optimization of the culture medium for xylitol production using Debrayomyces hansenii var hansenii was carried out. The optimization of xylitol production using corncob hemicelluloses hydrolysate as substrate was performed with statistical methodology based on experimental designs. The screening of nine nutrients for their influence of xylitol production to achieved using a Plackett-Burman design. MgSO4.7H2O, KH2PO4, (NH4)2SO4, yeast extract were selected for based on their positive influence on xylitol production. The selected components were optimized using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The optimum conditions are: MgSO4.7H2O - 1.02 g/l, (NH4)2SO4 - 3.94 g/l, KH2PO4- 2.74 g/l and yeast extract - 3.45 g/l. These conditions are validated experimentally which revealed an enhanced xylitol yield of 0.76 g/g.

The present study aimed to optimize the production of Scenedesmus sp. biomass during the phycoremediation process. The biomass productivity was optimized using face centred central composite design (FCCCD) in response surface methodology (RSM) as a function of two independent variables that included wet market wastewater concentrations (A) with a range of 10% to 75% and aeration rate (B) with a range of 0.02 to 4.0 L/min. The results revealed that the highest biomass productivity (73 mg/L/d) and maximum growth rate (1.19 day−1) was achieved with the 64.26% of (A) and 3.08 L/min of (B). The GC-MS composition analysis of the biomass yield extract revealed that the major compounds are hexadecane (25%), glaucine (16.2%), and phytol (8.33%). The presence of these compounds suggests that WMW has the potential to be used as a production medium for Scenedesmus sp. Biomass, which has several applications in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry.
