Abstract
In this study, the potential of bagasse pith (the waste of sugar and paper industry) was investigated for bio-xylitol production for the first time. Xylose-rich hydrolysate was prepared using 8% dilute sulfuric acid, at 120 °C for 90 min. Then, the acid-hydrolyzed solution was detoxified by individual overliming (OL), active carbon (AC), and their combination (OL+AC). The amounts of reducing sugars and inhibitors (furfural and hydroxyl methyl furfural) were measured after acid pre-treatment and detoxification process. Thereafter, xylitol was produced from detoxified hydrolysate by Rhodotorula mucilaginosa yeast. Results showed that after acid hydrolysis, the sugar yield was 20%. Detoxification by overliming and active carbon methods increased the reducing sugar content up to 65% and 36% and decreased the concentration of inhibitors to >90% and 16%, respectively. Also, combined detoxification caused an increase in the reducing sugar content (>73%) and a complete removal of inhibitors. The highest productivity of xylitol (0.366 g/g) by yeast was attained after the addition of 100 g/l non-detoxified xylose-rich hydrolysate into fermentation broth after 96 h, while the xylitol productivity enhanced to 0.496 g/g after adding the similar amount of xylose-rich hydrolysate detoxified by combined method (OL+AC2.5%).

Identification of a Novel Dehydrogenase from Gluconobacter oxydans for Degradation of Inhibitors Derived from Lignocellulosic Biomass. FERMENTATION-BASEL 2023.

Abstract
Inhibitors from lignocellulosic biomass have become the bottleneck of biorefinery development. Gluconobacter oxydans DSM2003 showed a high performance of inhibitors degradation, which had a short lag time in non-detoxified corn stover hydrolysate and could convert 90% of aldehyde inhibitors to weaker toxic acids. In this study, an aldehyde dehydrogenase gene W826-RS0111485, which plays an important function in the conversion of aldehyde inhibitors in Gluconobacter oxydans DSM2003, was identified. W826-RS0111485 was found by protein profiling, then a series of enzymatic properties were determined and were heterologously expressed in E. coli. The results indicated that NADP is the most suitable cofactor of the enzyme when aldehyde inhibitor is the substrate, and it had the highest oxidation activity to furfural among several aldehyde inhibitors. Under the optimal reaction conditions (50 °C, pH 7.5), the Km and Vmax of the enzyme under furfural stress were 2.45 and 80.97, respectively, and the Kcat was 232.22 min−1. The biodetoxification performance experiments showed that the recombinant E. coli containing the target gene completely converted 1 g/L furfural to furoic acid within 8 h, while the control E. coli only converted 18% furfural within 8 h. It was further demonstrated that W826-RS0111485 played an important role in the detoxification of furfural. The mining of this inhibitor degradation gene could provide a theoretical basis for rational modification of industrial strains to enhance its capacity of inhibitor degradation in the future.

Vinasse from sugarcane bagasse (hemicellulose) acid hydrolysate and molasses supplemented: biodegradability and toxicity. ECOTOXICOLOGY (LONDON, ENGLAND) 2021; 30:818-827. [PMID: 33856614 DOI: 10.1007/s10646-021-02401-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 03/22/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Vinasse sugarcane is a valuable byproduct of the ethanol production process, presenting a perspective of volume increase with the development of second generation ethanol (2GE). However, this byproduct needs new methods of treatment and management for sustainability. Besides that, 2GE vinasse can be associated with some compounds (such as furan derivatives, phenolic compounds and organic acids), depending on the process used to solubilize hemicellulose, which could compromise vinasse destination or utilization. For this reason, detoxification methods of the hemicellulosic hydrolysates, from which vinasse is obtained in subsequent steps, are crucial. This study aimed to investigate whether the biological detoxification of vinasse from 2GE presents a difference concerning the microbial activity of biodegradation and toxicity when compared to vinasse without the detoxification process. Two vinasses (1, before; and 2, after detoxification) from fermented sugarcane bagasse (hemicellulose fraction) acid hydrolysate (supplemented with its molasses), under different concentrations: 2.5; 5 e 10% were evaluated. Their physicochemical characterization, biodegradation microbial activity (through Bartha and Pramer respirometric method, with total count of heterotrophic bacteria and fungi), and toxicity evaluation (through bioassays with Lactuca sativa at concentraction: 2.5; 5 e 10% and Daphnia similis to 1.5; 2.5; 3.5; 4.5; 5 and 10%) were performed. The results indicated high mineral and organic matter, which under a specific circumstance (2.5% of soil conditioning), enabled high efficiency in biodegradation (>80%). The bioassays with L. sativa signaled negative effect for radicular growth when the vinasses were applied at a concentration of 5 and 10% (sublethal effect and delayed root growth). Acute effects were observed in D. similis, with 50% of immobilization, at concentrations of 4.13% and 4.74% for vinasses 1 and 2, respectively. These results indicate that the biodegradation of vinasse from sugarcane bagasse acid hydrolysate occurs at relatively low levels (up to 5%) and suggests that higher concentrations (≥10%) may impair the growth of soil-associated microorganisms.
