Fumaric acid production in airlift loop reactor with porous sparger

Airlift loop reactors with porous spargers were investigated and used in the process of fumaric acid production byRhizopus oryzae ATCC 20344. In order to enhance oxygen mass transfer, which is very important for organic acid production, two kinds of porous spargers (stainless steel membrane tube and porcelain tube) were examined. Gas holdup, liquid circulation velocity, mixing time, bubble size, and bubble rise velocities were measured in a 50 L rectangular airlift loop reactor with different ratios of the cross-sectional area of the riser and downcomer. The local volumetric mass transfer coefficient (K_La) was also measured in the gas sparger zone. The results indicated that high K_La and excellent hydrodynamics can be obtained in the airlift loop reactor with a porous sparger. A 10 L laboratory airlift loop reactor was employed for the fumaric acid fermentation. Results showed that the turbulence of two-phase flow in the airlift loop reactor not only produced favorable conditions for mass transfer, but was also useful for forming and suspending small, well-distributed mycelial pellets (1ç2 mm). A production rate of up to 0.814 g/L/h and efficiency yield of 50.1% (w/w) was obtained in the airlift loop reactor. The performance was compared with the typical stirred tank fermentor fermentation results.

     

阴离子交换和羟基磷灰石色谱从螺旋藻中提纯藻胆蛋白的研究

本文采用离子交换层析和羟基磷灰石吸附层析技术从螺旋藻中提取纯化得到藻蓝蛋白和别藻蓝蛋白。通过比较 ＡＮＸ Ｓｅｐｈａｒｏｓｅ ４ Ｆａｓｔ Ｆｌｏｗ（ｈｉｇｈ ｓｕｂ／ｌｏｗ ｓｕｂ）、 ＤＥＡＥ Ｓｅｐｈａｒｏｓｅ Ｆａｓｔ Ｆｌｏｗ和 Ｑ Ｓａｐｈａｒｏｓｅ Ｆａｓｔ Ｆｌｏｗ等阴离子交换树脂的动态吸附容量以及目标产品的纯度,选用 ＤＥＡＥＳｅｐｈａｒｏｓｅ Ｆａｓｔ Ｆｌｏｗ作为层析介质．对离子交换的产物进行了电泳分析,藻蓝蛋白和别藻蓝蛋白的等电点接近,电迁移速率相似。采用羟基磷灰石吸附技术对藻胆蛋白混合物进一步分离纯化,分别得到了藻蓝蛋白和别藻蓝蛋白的纯品,经等电聚焦实验验证显示为均一组成。     

β-环糊精催化下的不对称Darzens缩合

应用环糊精(CD)作为人工酶模型已经在许多有机反应中显示出特异的结果。CD催化下的合成虽然报道还不多,但已被视为一种有前途的仿生合成。鉴于α,β-环氧酮是一类重要的合成中间体,光学活性的α,β-环氧酮的不对称合成更是人们感兴趣的领域,因而我们研究了如下的在β-CD催化下的Darzens缩合:

香茅基芳基醚类保幼激素类似物的简便合成方法

许多香叶基芳基醚和香茅基芳基醚已证明是有效的昆虫保幼激素^[1-3].以往合成此类化合物,只能在酚与较活泼的香叶基溴的反应中使用KOH(或NaOH),与较不活泼的香茅基溴的反应则仍沿用Williamson法.我们曾报导了以聚氧乙烯类表面活性剂代替冠醚作为相转移催化剂合成醚类化合物的方法^[4].
