In order to reduce release of CO2 contained in the flue gas from a power plant, we assumed a system in which the flue gas was directly blown into a pond and
CO2 was fixed on microalgae. We have experimentally examined the basic growth characteristics, such as trace components of culture
medium, effects of impurities from exhaust gas, and light utilization rate of algal productivity, mainly forNonnochloropsis sp. NANNP-2 from SERI collection. Although Ni and V contained in heavy oil burnt ashes dissolve into culture solution, their
concentrations are low, and they have no particular adverse effect on growth as impurities.
Culture medium trace component (i.e., heavy metals and vitamins) are essential for the NANNP-2. However, for the PHAEO-2(Phaeodactylum sp.), the growth rate hardly changes, even if vitamins and heavy metals other than Fe are eliminated. 相似文献

A study has been conducted of the feasibility of utilizing the sulfate reducing bacteriumDesulfovibrio desulfuricans and the chemoautotrophThiobacillus denitrificans as a basis of a microbial process for the removal of sulfur dioxide from a gas with net oxidation to sulfate. In reactors-in-series,
SO2 was reduced to H2S in the first stage by D.desulfuricans. The H2S was then stripped with nitrogen and sent to a second stage where it was oxidized to sulfate by T.denitrificans. A sulfur balance demonstrated complete reduction of SO2 to H2S in the first stage and complete oxidation of H2S to sulfate in the second stage. 相似文献

Microalgae are unique photosynthetic organisms that are known to accumulate storage lipids in large quantitites and thrive
in saline waters. Before these storage lipids can be used, they must be extracted from the microalgae and converted into usable
fuel. Transesterification of lipids produces fatty acid methyl esters that can be used as a diesel fuel substitute.
Three solvents, 1-butanol, ethanol, and hexane/2-propanol, were evaluated for extraction efficiency of microalgal lipids.
Type of catalyst, concentration of catalyst, time of reaction, temperature of reaction, and quality of lipid were examined
as variables for transesterification. The most efficient solvent of the three for extraction was 1-butanol (90% efficiency),
followed by hexane/2-propanol and ethanol. Optimal yield of fatty acid methyl esters was obtained using 0.6N hydrochloric
acid in methanol for 0.1 h at 70°C. 相似文献

A project is under way at the University of Tulsa to investigate the reduction of SO2 to H2S by sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) in co-culture with mixed fermentative heterotrophs. We have previously demonstrated that
SO2 is completely reduced to H2S (contact times of 1–2 s) in cultures in which no redox poising agents were required and glucose served as the ultimate source
of carbon energy. We have proposed that such a microbial process could be coupled with a Claus reactor to recover elemental
sulfur as a byproduct of regenerable, dry scrubbing processes for flue gas desulfurization. The development of this process
concept has continued with a study of the use of molasses as a source of carbon and reduced nitrogen, identification of important
non-SRB heterotrophs in process cultures, and the identification of the end products of carbohydrate fermentation that serve
as carbon and energy sources for the SRB and identification of the end products of SRB metabolism. 相似文献

Anaerobic bacteria have been shown to be capable of converting CO, H2, and CO2 in synthesis gas to valuable products, such as acetate, methane, and ethanol. However, synthesis gas also contains small
quantities of sulfur gases such as H2S and COS, that may inhibit the performance of these organisms. This paper compares the performance of several CO-utilizing
and methanogenic bacteria in converting CO, CO2, and H2 to products in the presence of various concentrations of H2S and COS. The sulfur gas toxicity levels, growth, substrate uptake, and product formation for each organism are compared. 相似文献

The CO2 reduction processes have been discussed as a way of designing an ecologically totally closed technology. An electric current
and molecular hydrogen are the two related available agents that can be discussed as ecologically pure reductants. The most
important products are liquid and gaseous fuels, the products of large-scale organic synthesis, monomers, and amino acids.
For CO2 reduction, the necessary energy consumption and H2 costs were calculated. For complex organic molecules, amino acids for instance, the energy consumption does not make up the
main portion of the costs.
The biocatalytic systems of CO2 reduction based on cryoimmobilized cells are described. Conversion of CO2 into L-lysine with electrochemical decomposition of water was effected on the laboratory scale. A general unit for diverse
technological processes can be a bioelectrosynthetic Index Entries: Bioelectrosynthesis; CO2 reduction; liquid fuels; amino acids; immobilized cells; economic estimates. modulus, an electrochemical hydrogen generator
coupled with a biocatalytic converter of hydrogen and oxygen. The systems for bioelectrosynthesis of motor fuels and essential
amino acids have been economically estimated and characterized. The possibilities of combining the solar energy transformation
and H2–CO2 conversion have been discussed. 相似文献

The components of synthesis gas, CO, H2, and CO2, may be converted into CH4 biologically through either acetate or H2/CO2 as intermediates. Of these two routes, conversion through H2/CO2 is preferred. This paper presents results of mixed-culture studies employing the photosynthetic bacteriumR. rubrum for converting CO to CO2 and H2 by the water gas shift reaction and two methanogens,M. formicicum andM. barkeri, for converting CO2 and H2 into CH4. Results are presented for triculture operation in two types of reactors, the packed bubble column and the trickle-bed reactor. 相似文献

Two heterotrophic denitrifying bacteria,Paracoccus denitrificans andPseudomonas denitrificans, have been shown to utilize nitric oxide (NO) as a terminal electron acceptor and succinate, yeast extract, and heat/alkali
pretreated municipal sewage sludge as carbon and energy sources. Complete removal of NO (0.50%) from a feed gas sparged into
the cultures was observed. It is suggested that reduction of NO may be a common feature of denitrifying bacteria and that
a microbial process to dispose of NOx may be economically viable. 相似文献

The production of γ-linolenic acid from algae in fresh and marine water was investigated. WhenSpirulina platensis was left in the dark condition, it contained about one and a half times γ-linolenic acid compared with conventionalSpirulina platensis. Marine microalga,Chlorella sp. NKG 042401 contained about 10% of γ-linolenic acid. The highest γ-linolenic acid content was obtained when this alga was
cultured under the radiation of around 100 μEinstein/m2/s. 相似文献

A microbubble dispersion (MBD) was used to supply oxygen for aerobic fermentations in a standard 2 L stirred tank fermenter.
The microbubble dispersion was formed using only surfactants produced naturally. Growth rates ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae cultures were found to be equal or greater with MBD sparging than with gas sparging. The oxygen transfer coefficent with
MBD sparging was found to be 190/h and independent of impeller speed from 100–580 rpm. The oxygen transfer coefficient with
air sparging rose from 55 to 132/h over the same range of impeller speeds. Power requirements for the fermenter systems were
estimated. 相似文献

Several reports exist in the literature citing the decrease in conversion rates of organic-phase catalytic synthesis reactions
when acetic acid is present as a reaction component. This inhibition is thought to result from damage to either the hydration
layer-protein interaction or the overall enzyme structure. In this work, the inhibitory effect of acetic acid on lipase enzyme
activity was ameliorated by conducting syntheses under acetic acid-limiting conditions in a fed-batch system, resulting in
higher product yields. Periodic additions of acetic acid at levels of 40 mM or less gave maximum yields of 65% conversion for the reaction of citronellol and acetic acid to form citronellyl acetate.
The enzyme used was a fungal lipase fromMucor miehei, and was immobilized on macroporous synthetic resin (a Novo lipozyme Novo Nordisk, Denmark). These results represent a fourfold
improvement over batch runs reported in the literature for direct esterification of terpene alcohol with acetic acid using
lipozyme as a catalytic agent. 相似文献

This article presents the advanced technology that has been developed by BioEnergy International of Gainesville, Florida,
utilizing novel recombinant strains of bacteria developed by Lonnie Ingram of the University of Florida. The first commercial
applications of these unique fermenting organisms convert 5-carbon sugars, as well as 6-carbon sugars, and oligomers of cellulose
(e.g., cellobiose and cellotriose) directly to ethanol. The proposed systems that will be utilized for conversion of agricultural
wastes, mixed waste papers, and pulp and paper mill waste in forthcoming commercial installations are now under design. This
involves the extensive experience of Raphael Katzen Associates International, Inc. in acid hydrolysis, enzyme production,
enzymatic hydrolysis, large-scale fermentation engineering, and distillation/dehydration.
Specific examples of this advanced technology will be presented in different applications, namely:

1. | Conversion of the hemicellulose content of sugar cane bagasse to 5-carbon sugars by mild-acid prehydrolysis, followed by fermentation of the 5-carbon sugar extract with recombinantEscherichia coli in a commercial installation soon to be under construction in Brazil. This unique process utilizes the surplus hemicellulose fraction of bagasse not required for steam and power generation to produce ethanol, additional to that from the original cane juice, which has been converted by conventional sucrose fermentation to ethanol. The process also recovers and converts to ethanol the majority of sucrose normally lost with the bagasse fibers. Resultant beer is enriched in an innovative process to eliminate the need for incremental rectification capacity. |
2. | Application of this technology to mixed waste paper in Florida, with a moderate loading of newsprint (85% mechanical wood fiber), will involve a mild-acid prehydrolysis, the partial extraction of the 5-carbon sugars produced from hemicellulose as a feedstock for propagation of the recombinantKlebsiella oxytoca bacterium. Included is a facility providing for in-house production of cellulase enzyme, as an active whole broth for direct use in simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of the remaining cellulose and residual 5-carbon sugars to ethanol. This is followed by distillation and dehydration in the advanced commercially available low-energy recovery system. |
3. | Another potential application of this unique technology involves utilization of a variety of wastes from several pulp and paper mills in close proximity, permitting collection of these wastes at low cost and reducing the considerable cost encountered in disposing of such low-energy wet waste. Based on pilot plant experiences with converting such waste by simultaneous enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation, the same techniques will be applied as in the second case, with use of acid prehydrolysis only if the hemicellulose-derived sugars can be economically recovered. If not, acid hydrolysis will be eliminated and only the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation will be carried out, utilizing in-house-produced enzyme broth and recombinantKlebsiella oxytoca. |

When cells ofChlamydomonas sp. MGA 161, a marine green alga, were cultivated at a high CO2 concentration (15% CO2) and low temperature (15°C), the growth lag time was much longer, but the starch accumulated was two times higher than under
the basal conditions (5% CO2 30°C). When the cells grown in the high-CO2/low-temperature conditions were incubated under dark anaerobic conditions, the degradation of starch and production of hydrogen
and ethanol were remarkably higher than those grown under the basal conditions. The lag time of cell growth was shortened,
whereas the high capacity of starch accumulation and hydrogen production was maintained, by cultivating the cells alternately
every 12 h under the basal and high-CO2/low-temperature conditions. Using this dual system, in which the cultivation was alternated between the two conditions, the
total productivity was significantly improved. 相似文献

Four isoforms of the extracellular lignin peroxidase of the ligninolytic actinomyceteStreptomyces viridosporus T7A (ALip-P1, P2, P3, and P4) were individually purified by ultrafiltration and ammonium sulfate precipitation, followed
by electro-elution using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Three of the purified peroxidases were compared for their immunologic
relatedness by Western blot analysis using a polyclonal antibody preparation produced in rabbits against pure isoform P3.
The anti-P3 antibody was also tested for its reactivity towards a lignin peroxidase from the white-rot fungusPhanerochaete chrysosporium and another ligninolytic actinomyceteStreptomyces badius 252. Results showed that peroxidases ALip-P1 through ALip-P3 are immunologically related to one another. The peroxidases
ofS. badius, but not the peroxidase ofP. chrysosporium, also reacted with the antibody, thus indicating that the lignin peroxidases ofS. viridosporus andS. badius are immunologically related. Based upon its specific affinity, lignin peroxidase isoform ALip-P3 ofS. viridosporus was readily purified using an anti-P3 antibody affinity column. 相似文献

C-peptide radioimmunoassay (C-peptide RIA) is widely used in determination of pancreatic B-cell secretion activity.125I labeled TyrC-peptide is indispensable in C-peptide RIA kit. Herein we discuss a way of obtaining recombinant Tyr-C-peptide.
Arg32Tyr human proinsulin mutant (R32Y-proinsulin) gene was constructed by site-directed mutagenesis and overexpressed inEscherichia coli. Purified R32Y-proinsulin was converted to insulin and Tyr-C-peptide by trypsin and carboxypeptidase B codigestion. Tyr-C-peptide
was isolated through reverse-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) and identified by C-peptide RIA and amino acid analysis. 相似文献

Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) processes for producing ethanol from lignocellulose are capable of improved
hydrolysis rates, yields, and product concentrations compared to separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) systems, because
the continuous removal of the sugars by the yeasts reduces the end-product inhibition of the enzyme complex. Recent experiments
using Genencor 150L cellulase and mixed yeast cultures have produced yields and concentrations of ethanol from cellulose of
80% and 4.5%, respectively. The mixed culture was employed because B.clausenii has the ability to ferment cellobiose (further reducing end-product inhibition), while the brewing yeastS. cerevisiae provides a robust ability to ferment the monomeric sugars. These experimental results are combined with a process model to
evaluate the economics of the process and to investigate the effect of alternative processes, conditions, and organisms. 相似文献
