AbstractThis study shows a possible microbial process for utilization of crude glycerol generated by the biodiesel industry for citric acid and erythritol production. Simultaneous production of citric acid and erythritol under nitrogen-limited conditions with glycerol as the carbon source was achieved with an acetate negative mutant of Y. lipolytica Wratislavia K1 in fed-batch cultivations. The effect of the initial glycerol concentration (from 30–180 g dm−3) on the citrate and erythritol production was investigated. As a result of the experiments, maximum citric acid production (110 g dm−3) and a very high amount of erythritol (81 g dm−3) were determined after 168 h of fed-batch cultivation with the initial glycerol concentration of 150 g dm−3 and the total glycerol concentration of 250 g dm−3. In addition, the citric acid to isocitric acid ratio of the products from this strain was 35.5:1.

Fed Batch Cultivation

Microbial lipids are able to produce from various raw materials including lignocellulosic biomass by the effective oleaginous microorganisms using different cultivation processes. This study aimed to enhance microbial lipid production from the low-cost substrates namely sugarcane top hydrolysate and crude glycerol by Rhodosporidiobolus fluvialis DMKU-SP314, using two-stage fed-batch cultivation with different feeding strategies in a 3 L stirred-tank fermenter. The effect of two feeding strategies of 147.5 g/L crude glycerol solution was evaluated including pulse feeding at different starting time points (48, 24, and 72 h after initiation of batch operation) and constant feeding at different dilution rates (0.012, 0.020, and 0.033 h−1). The maximum lipid concentration of 23.6 g/L and cell mass of 38.5 g/L were achieved when constant feeding was performed at the dilution rate of 0.012 h−1 after 48 h of batch operation, which represented 1.24-fold and 1.27-fold improvements in the lipid and cell mass concentration, respectively. Whereas, batch cultivation provided 19.1 g/L of lipids and 30.3 g/L of cell mass. The overall lipid productivity increased to 98.4 mg/L/d in the two-stage fed-batch cultivation. This demonstrated that the two-stage fed-batch cultivation with constant feeding strategy has the possibility to apply for large-scale production of lipids by yeast.

Fed Batch Cultivation

The Kluyveromyces marxianus yeast recently has gained considerable attention due to its applicability in high-value-added product manufacturing. In order to intensify the biosynthesis rate of a target product, reaching high biomass concentrations in the reaction medium is mandatory. Fed-batch processes are an attractive and efficient way how to achieve high cell densities. However, depending on the physiology of the particular microbial strain, an optimal media composition should be used to avoid by-product synthesis and, subsequently, a decrease in overall process effi-ciency. Thus, the aim of the present study was to optimise the synthetic growth medium and feeding solution compositions (in terms of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous, magnesium, and calcium concentrations) for high cell density K. marxianus fed‑batch cultivations. Additionally, the biomass yields from the vitamin mixture and other macro/microelements were identified. A model predictive control algorithm was successfully applied for a fed-batch cultivation control. Biomass growth and substrate consumption kinetics were compared with the mathematical model predictions. Finally, 2‑phenylethanol biosynthesis was induced and its productivity was estimated. The determined optimal macronutrient ratio for K. marxianus biomass growth was identified as C:N:P = 1:0.07:0.011. The maximal attained yeast biomass concentration was close to 70 g·L-1 and the 2-PE biosynthesis rate was 0.372 g·L−1·h−1, with a yield of 74% from 2-phenylalanine.
