Abstract
Hydrodynamic conditions are critical in bioprocessing because they influence oxygen availability for cultured cells. Processes in typical laboratory bioreactors need optimization of these conditions using mixing and aeration control to obtain high production of the desired bioproduct. It could be done by experiments supported by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling. In this work, we characterized parameters such as mixing time, power consumption and mass transfer in a 2 L bioreactor. Based on the obtained results, we chose a set of nine process parameters to test the hydrodynamic impact on a selected bioprocess (mixing in the range of 0-160 rpm and aeration in the range of 0-250 ccm). Therefore, we conducted experiments with P. aeruginosa culture and assessed how various hydrodynamic conditions influenced biomass, pyocyanin and rhamnolipid production. We found that a relatively high mass transfer of oxygen (kLa = 0.0013 s-1) connected with intensive mixing (160 rpm) leads to the highest output of pyocyanin production. In contrast, rhamnolipid production reached maximal efficiency under moderate oxygen mass transfer (kLa = 0.0005 s-1) and less intense mixing (in the range of 0-60 rpm). The results indicate that manipulating hydrodynamics inside the bioreactor allows control of the process and may lead to a change in the metabolites produced by bacterial cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Many studies have been conducted on the removal of heavy metals from industrial wastewater using biosurfactants, but few papers have been published on the removal of heavy metals from soil contaminated with crude oil using this method. The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of rhamnolipid biosurfactants in removing nickel, chromium, and cadmium from soil contaminated with crude oil. In this study, first rhamnolipid was produced from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PTCC1340 and then confirmed by Thin-Layer-Chromatography (TLC) and Fourier-Transformation-Infrared-Spectroscopy (FTIR). In the next step, a sandy soil (2 mm diameter) was mixed with the crude oil (API = 32.83, viscosity = 6.21cp) at 258C for 2 weeks. The washing parameters included temperature, pH and rhamnolipid dosage. Based on our results, the heavy metal removal of nickel, chromium and cadmium from soil contaminated with crude oil at the optimum condition (258C, 0.8 g/L and pH 11) was 43.05%, 34.73% and 52.81%, respectively. Based on the results, rhamnolipids are found to have considerable potential for removing heavy metals especially cadmium, and the soil washing by the produced biosurfactant leads to the removal of heavy metals without the destructive effects of chemical surfactants and subsequently reduces environmental pollution. Therefore, this biosurfactant rhamnolipid may have a good potential for application in bioremediation of crude oil contamination.

Abstract
Bio-based rhamnolipid production from waste streams is gaining momentum nowadays because of increasing market demand, huge range of applications and its economic and environment friendly nature. Rhamnolipid type biosurfactants are produced by microorganisms as secondary metabolites and have been used to reduce surface/interfacial tension between two different phases. Biosurfactants have been reported to be used as an alternative to chemical surfactants. Pseudomonas sp. has been frequently used for production of rhamnolipid. Various wastes can be used in production of rhamnolipid. Rhamnolipids are widely used in various industrial applications. The present review provides information about structure and nature of rhamnolipid, production using different waste materials and scale-up of rhamnolipid production. It also provides comprehensive literature on various industrial applications along with perspectives and challenges in this research area.
