THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 862:160719. [PMID: 36481134 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.160719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Revised: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Succinic acid (SA) has been produced from rice straw (RS) and sugarcane bagasse (SB) as low-cost feedstocks in this study through sequential peracetic acid (PA) and alkaline peroxide (AP) pretreatment assisted by ultrasound and pre-hydrolysis followed by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (PSSF). The effect of yeast extract (YE) concentration, inoculum concentration, and biomass type on SA production was investigated. The results showed that SA production from RS and SB was significantly affected by the YE concentration. Final concentration and yield of SA produced were significantly increased along with the increasing of YE concentration. Moreover, inoculum concentration significantly affected the SA production from SB. Higher inoculum concentration led to higher SA production. On the other hand, SA production from RS was not significantly affected by the inoculum concentration. Using RS as the feedstock, the highest SA production was achieved on the medium containing 15 g/L YE with 5 % v/v inoculum, obtaining SA concentration and yield of 3.64 ± 0.1 g/L and 0.18 ± 0.05 g/g biomass, respectively. Meanwhile, the highest SA production from SB was acquired on the medium containing 10 g/L YE with 7.5 % v/v inoculum, resulting SA concentration and yield of 5.1 ± 0.1 g/L and 0.25 ± 0.05 g/g biomass, respectively. This study suggested that RS and SB are potential to be used as low-cost feedstocks for sustainable and environmentally friendly SA production through ultrasonic-assisted PA and AP pretreatment and PSSF.

Assessment of vine shoots and surplus grape must for succinic acid bioproduction. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 106:4977-4994. [PMID: 35821430 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-022-12063-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2022] [Revised: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 07/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Vine shoots and surplus grape must were assessed as feedstocks for succinic acid production with Actinobacillus succinogenes and Basfia succiniproducens. After acidic and enzymatic hydrolysis, vine shoots released 35-40 g/L total sugars. Both bacterial species produced 18-21 g/L succinic acid from this hydrolysate in 120 h. Regarding grape must fermentation, A. succinogenes clearly outperformed B. succiniproducens. Yeast extract (a source of organic nitrogen and vitamins) was the only additional nutrient needed by A. succinogenes to grow on grape must. Under mathematically optimized conditions (145.7 g/L initial sugars and 24.9 g/L yeast extract), A. succinogenes generated 88.9 ± 1.4 g/L succinic acid in 96 h, reaching a succinic acid yield of 0.66 ± 0.01 g/g and a sugar consumption of 96.64 ± 0.30%. Substrate inhibition was not observed in grape musts with 125-150 g/L initial sugars, provided that an adequate amount of yeast extract was available for bacteria. Alternative nitrogen sources to yeast extract (red wine lees, white wine lees, urea, NH4Cl, and choline chloride) were not suitable for A. succinogenes in grape must. KEY POINTS: • Vine shoots and surplus grape must were assessed for succinic acid bioproduction. • Succinic acid bioproduction was 21 g/L with vine shoots and 89 g/L with grape must. • Fermentation was efficient at high sugar loads if organic N supply was adequate.

Abstract
Glycerol dehydratase (gdrAB-dhaB123) operon from Klebsiella pneumoniae and NADPH-dependent 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (yqhD) from Escherichia coli were stably integrated on the chromosomal DNA of E. coli under the control of the native-host ldhA and pflB constitutive promoters, respectively. The developed E. coli NSK015 (∆ldhA::gdrAB-dhaB123 ∆ackA::FRT ∆pflB::yqhD ∆frdABCD::cat-sacB) produced 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) at the level of 36.8 g/L with a yield of 0.99 mol/mol of glycerol consumed when glucose was used as a co-substrate with glycerol. Co-substrate of glycerol and cassava starch was also utilized for 1,3-PDO production with the concentration and yield of 31.9 g/L and 0.84 mol/mol of glycerol respectively. This represents a work for efficient 1,3-PDO production in which the overexpression of heterologous genes on the E. coli host genome devoid of plasmid expression systems. Plasmids, antibiotics, IPTG, and rich nutrients were omitted during 1,3-PDO production. This may allow a further application of E. coli NSK015 for the efficient 1,3-PDO production in an economically industrial scale. KEY POINTS: • gdrAB-dhaB123 and yqhD were overexpressed in E. coli devoid of a plasmid system • E. coli NSK015 produced a high yield of 1,3-PDO at 99% theoretical maximum • Cassava starch was alternatively used as substrate for economical 1,3-PDO production.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass-derived fuels, chemicals, and materials are promising sustainable solutions to replace the current petroleum-based production. The direct microbial conversion of thermos-chemically pretreated lignocellulosic biomass is hampered by the presence of highly toxic chemical compounds. Also, thermo-catalytic upgrading of lignocellulosic biomass generates wastewater that contains heterogeneous toxic chemicals, a mixture of unutilized carbon. Metabolic engineering efforts have primarily focused on the conversion of carbohydrates in lignocellulose biomass; substantial opportunities exist to harness value from toxic lignocellulose-derived toxic compounds. This article presents the comprehensive metabolic routes and tolerance mechanisms to develop robust synthetic microbial cell factories to valorize the highly toxic compounds to advanced-platform chemicals. The obtained platform chemicals can be used to manufacture high-value biopolymers and biomaterials via a hybrid biochemical approach for replacing petroleum-based incumbents. The proposed strategy enables a sustainable bio-based materials economy by microbial biofunneling of lignocellulosic biomass-derived toxic molecules, an untapped biogenic carbon.

The advanced performance of microbial consortium for simultaneous utilization of glucose and xylose to produce lactic acid directly from dilute sulfuric acid pretreated corn stover. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS 2021; 14:233. [PMID: 34876182 PMCID: PMC8650463 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-021-02085-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2021] [Accepted: 11/26/2021] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lignocellulosic feedstocks have attracted much attention as a potential carbon source for lactic acid (LA) production because of their ready availability, sustainability, and renewability. However, there are at least two major technical challenges to producing LA from lignocellulose. Inhibitors derived from lignocellulose pretreatment have a negative impact on the growth of cells producing LA. Furthermore, pentose sugars produced from the pretreatment are difficultly utilized by most LA producers, which is known as the carbon catabolite repression (CCR) effect. This complex feedstock can be utilized by a robust microbial consortium with high bioconversion efficiency. RESULTS In this study, a thermophilic consortium DUT50 producing LA was enriched and employed to improve corn stover (CS) utilization. Enterococcus was the dominant family in the consortium DUT50, accounting for 93.66% of the total abundance, with Lactobacillus, Bacillus, Lactococcus, and Trichococcus accounted for the remaining 2.68%. This consortium could be resistant to inhibitors concentration up to 9.74 g/L (2.88 g/L acetic acid, 2.46 g/L furfural, 2.20 g/L 5-HMF, and 2.20 g/L vanillin derived from pretreatment of CS), and simultaneously metabolizes hexose and pentose without CCR effect. Based on the promising consortium features, an efficient process of simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation (SSCF) was developed to produce LA from acid pretreated corn stover, in which solid-liquid separation and detoxification were avoided. The key influencing factors were investigated and optimized, including dry biomass and cellulase loading, corn steep liquor powder concentration, and the pre-hydrolysis time. The highest LA titer of 71.04 g/L with a yield of 0.49 g/g-CS was achieved at a dry biomass loading of 20% (w/v), which is the highest LA production from non-detoxified acid pretreated corn stover via the SSCF process without wastewater generation reported to date. The simultaneous metabolism of hexose and pentose revealed collaboration between Enterococcus in the consortium, whereas xylose may be efficiently metabolized by Lactobacillus and Bacillus with low abundance via the pentose phosphate pathway. CONCLUSIONS The experimental results demonstrated the potential advantage of symbiosis in microbial consortia used for LA production from lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
Rice straw is an important low-cost feedstock for bio-based economy. This report presents a study in which rice straw was used both as a source for isolation of bacteria producing the biodegradable polyester polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), as well as the carbon source for the production of the polymer by the isolated bacteria. Of the 100 bacterial isolates, seven were found to be positive for PHA production by Nile blue staining and were identified as Bacillus species by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Three isolates showed 100% sequence identity to B. cereus, one to B. paranthracis, two with 99 and 100% identity to B. anthracis, while one was closely similar to B. thuringiensis. For use in PHA production, rice straw was subjected to mild alkaline pretreatment followed by enzymatic hydrolysis. Comparison of pretreatment by 2% sodium hydroxide, 2% calcium hydroxide and 20% aqueous ammonia, respectively, at different temperatures showed maximum weight loss with NaOH at 80 °C for 5 h, but ammonia for 15 h at 80 °C led to highest lignin removal of 63%. The ammonia-pretreated rice straw also led to highest release of total reducing sugar up to 92% on hydrolysis by a cocktail of cellulases and hemicellulases at 50 °C. Cultivation of the Bacillus isolates on the pretreated rice straw revealed highest PHA content of 59.3 and 46.4%, and PHA concentration of 2.96 and 2.51 g/L by Bacillus cereus VK92 and VK98, respectively.

Abstract
The anaerobic fermentation of glucose and fructose was performed by Actinobacillus succinogenes 130Z in batch mode using three different volume of bioreactors (0.25, 1 and 3 L). The strategy used was the addition of MgCO3 and fumaric acid (FA) as mineral carbon and the precursor of succinic acid, respectively, in the culture media. Kinetics and yields of succinic acid (SA) production in the presence of sugars in a relevant synthetic medium were investigated. Work on the bench scale (3 L) showed the best results when compared to the small anaerobic reactor’s succinic acid yield and productivity after 96 h of fermentation. For an equal mixture of glucose and fructose used as substrate at 0.4 mol L−1 with the addition of FA as enhancer and under proven optimal conditions (pH 6.8, T = 37 °C, anaerobic condition and 1% v/v of biomass), about 0.5 mol L−1 of SA was obtained, while the theoretical production of succinic acid was 0.74 mol L−1. This concentration corresponded to an experimental yield of 0.88 (mol-C SA/mol-C sugars consumed anaerobically) and a volumetric productivity of 0.48 g-SA L−1 h−1. The succinic acid yield and concentration obtained were significant and in the order of those reported in the literature.

Abstract
Human endeavors generate a significant quantity of bio-waste, even lignocellulosic waste, due to rapid industrialization and urbanization, and can cause pollution to aquatic ecosystems, and contribute to detrimental animal and human health because of the toxicity of consequent hydrolysis products. This paper contributes to a new understanding of the lignocellulosic waste bio-pretreatment process from a literature review, which can provide better biorefinery operational outcomes. The simultaneous partial biological lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose lysis, i.e., simultaneous semi-lignino-holocellulolysis, is aimed at suggesting that when ligninolysis ensues, holocellulolysis is simultaneously performed for milled lignocellulosic waste instead of having a sequential process of initial ligninolysis and subsequent holocellulolysis as is currently the norm. It is presumed that such a process can be solely performed by digestive enzyme cocktails from the monkey cups of species such as Nepenthes, white and brown rot fungi, and some plant exudates. From the literature review, it was evident that the pretreatment of milled lignocellulosic waste is largely incomplete, and ligninolysis including holocellulolysis ensues simultaneously when the waste is milled. It is further proposed that lignocellulosic waste pretreatment can be facilitated using an environmentally friendly approach solely using biological means. For such a process to be understood and applied on an industrial scale, an interdisciplinary approach using process engineering and microbiology techniques is required.
