Abstract
Glycerol is a common by-product of industrial biodiesel syntheses. Due to its properties, availability, and versatility, residual glycerol can be used as a raw material in the production of high value-added industrial inputs and outputs. In particular, products like hydrogen, propylene glycol, acrolein, epichlorohydrin, dioxalane and dioxane, glycerol carbonate, n-butanol, citric acid, ethanol, butanol, propionic acid, (mono-, di-, and triacylglycerols), cynamoil esters, glycerol acetate, benzoic acid, and other applications. In this context, the present study presents a critical evaluation of the innovative technologies based on the use of residual glycerol in different industries, including the pharmaceutical, textile, food, cosmetic, and energy sectors. Chemical and biochemical catalysts in the transformation of residual glycerol are explored, along with the factors to be considered regarding the choice of catalyst route used in the conversion process, aiming at improving the production of these industrial products.

Variation of the Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Communities After Distinct Methods of Thermal Pretreatment of the Inoculum in Hydrogen-Production Reactors from Sugarcane Vinasse. Curr Microbiol 2021; 78:2682-2694. [PMID: 34013423 DOI: 10.1007/s00284-021-02527-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2020] [Accepted: 04/28/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different thermal pretreatments of the inoculum on the diversity of the microbial community producing hydrogen from sugarcane vinasse. High-throughput sequencing of the 16S and 18S rRNA genes was performed. The reactor samples were also selected for the isolation of strict anaerobes. Decreased microbial diversity was observed with increasing pretreatment temperatures, with Firmicutes predominating: 90% to 97%. The highest abundance of Staphylococcus (7.9%) was found in pretreatment at 120 °C / 20 min at pH 6. The fungal analysis revealed a high prevalence of Candida (47%), Agaricomycetes, Pezizomycotina and Aspergillus in assays with higher H2 production (90° C / 10 min at pH 6). Three species of Clostridium were isolated: C. bifermentans, C. saccharoperbutylacetonicum and C. saccharobutylicum. The isolates were tested separately and in co-cultures for the production of hydrogen. Hydrogen-producing capacity by co-culture of Clostridium species was increased by 18%. Knowing microorganisms and understanding the interaction between eukaryotes and prokaryotes is essential to obtain strategies for biotransformation of vinasse for the production of bioenergy.

Abstract
Diols derived from renewable feedstocks have significant commercial interest in polymer, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, flavors and fragrances, food and feed industries. In C3-C5 diols biological processes of 1,3-propanediol, 1,2-propanediol and 2,3-butanediol have been commercialized as other isomers are non-natural metabolites and lack natural biosynthetic pathways. However, the developments in the field of systems and synthetic biology paved a new path to learn, build, construct, and test for efficient chassis strains. The current review addresses the recent advancements in metabolic engineering, construction of novel pathways, process developments aimed at enhancing in production of C3-C5 diols. The requisites on developing an efficient and sustainable commercial bioprocess for C3-C5 diols were also discussed.

J Appl Microbiol 2019; 128:491-499. [PMID: 31642142 DOI: 10.1111/jam.14496] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2019] [Revised: 10/01/2019] [Accepted: 10/17/2019] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
AIM In this investigation, a dye-based pH-stat method was devised for monitoring steady production of 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PDO) during bioprospecting of glycerol-assimilating soil microbiome. METHODS AND RESULTS Soil samples were collected from two potential sites of CSIR-IIP, India. Selective enrichment of microbial consortia was done using the glycerol-based medium at initial stage, followed by purification to isolated colonies, after positive high-performance liquid chromatography detection of 1,3-PDO in the fermentation broth. When the purified isolated were re-tested for 1,3-PDO production, only two isolates namely Isolate 1 and Isolate 3 were capable of producing the targeted product preferably under anaerobic conditions. Based on better 1,3-PDO fermentation efficiency (Isolate 3, 22% vs Isolate 1, 4·48%) and acetic acid as the only major by-product, Isolate 3 was shortlisted for further studies. A dye-based technique was devised in which bromothymol blue was incorporated into the medium to monitor the pH drop due to acetic acid formation and hence change in colour. Visual change in colour helped in intermittent pH restoration. During fermentation, with pH stat being 8-8·5, Isolate 3 at 32°C yielded 0·67 mol mol-1 1,3-PDO within a short span of 12 h only with an initial concentration of glycerol being 20 g l-1 . Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Isolate 3 shared 95·8% homology with Citrobacter freundii CFNIH1 and hence designated as C. freundii IIP DR3. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that during bioprospecting glycerol-assimilating microbiome, dye-based technique can be successfully employed. This technique can further be exploited to monitor consistent production of all microbial secondary metabolites that accompanies acid production. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Incorporation of 'Bromothymol blue' can visually help in the identification of pH drop in the medium, so that pH stat can be easily maintained during 1,3-PDO production from glycerol especially under shake flask conditions.

Abstract
1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PD), a valuable bulk industrial material, has attracted increasing interest in recent years. A novel strain GYL isolated from soil samples could efficiently convert glycerol to 1,3-PD anaerobically. The physiological and biochemical characteristics of strain GYL were determined, indicating that strain GYL is a member of Clostridium perfringens with the neighbor-joining method of 16S rRNA gene sequences. The fermentation properties of strain GYL were also investigated systematically, which showed that the strain has a fast growth speed and high tolerance to 200g/L glycerol. Batch fermentation was carried out at a high glycerol concentration of 100g/L, and strain GYL produced 36.7g/L 1,3-PD. In fed-batch fermentation, strain GYL showed a maximum productivity of 2.0g/(L·h), and produced 40.0g/L 1,3-PD, with a high yield of 0.68mol 1,3-PD/mol glycerol. This study shows that the newly isolated strain GYL may have potential for 1,3-PD production from glycerol.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to estimate the production of hydrogen, organic acids and alcohols by the strain of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 using residual glycerol as a carbon source. The experiments were carried out in pure and mixed cultures in batch experiments. Three different sources of inocula for mixed culture were used. Ruminal liquid from goats and sludge collected from two upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactors treating municipal wastewater and brewery effluent were tested for hydrogen, organic acids and alcohols production with or without C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824. The main detected end-products from the glycerol fermentation were hydrogen, organic acids (acetic, propionic, butyric and caproic) and alcohol (ethanol and 1,3-propanediol - 1,3PD). High hydrogen (0.44 mol H2/mol glycerol consumed) and 1,3PD (0.32 mol 1,3PD/mol glycerol consumed) yields were obtained when the strain C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824 was bioaugmented into the sludge from municipal wastewater using 5 g/L of glycerol. Significant concentrations of n-caproic acid were detected in the ruminal liquid when amended with C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824. The results suggest that glycerol can be used for the generation of H2, 1,3PD and n-caproic acid using C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824 as agent in pure or mixed cultures.

Abstract
1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PDO) production from crude glycerol, a byproduct from biodiesel manufacturing, by Clostridium beijerinckii DSM 791 was studied with corn steep liquor as an inexpensive nitrogen source replacing yeast extract in the fermentation medium. A stable, long-term 1,3-PDO production from glycerol was demonstrated with cells immobilized in a fibrous bed bioreactor operated in a repeated batch mode, which partially circumvented the 1,3-PDO inhibition problem. The strain was then engineered to overexpress Escherichia coli gldA encoding glycerol dehydrogenase (GDH) and dhaKLM encoding dihydroxyacetone kinase (DHAK), which increased 1,3-PDO productivity by 26.8-37.5% compared to the wild type, because of greatly increased specific growth rate (0.25-0.40h(-1) vs. 0.13-0.20h(-1) for the wild type). The engineered strain gave a high 1,3-PDO titer (26.1g/L), yield (0.55g/g) and productivity (0.99g/L·h) in fed-batch fermentation. Overexpressing GDH and DHAK was thus effective in increasing 1,3-PDO production from glycerol.

Abstract
Shimwellia blattae ATCC 33430 as biocatalyst in the conversion of 1,3-propanediol from glycerol is herein evaluated. Several operational conditions in batch cultivations, employing pure and raw glycerol as sole carbon source, were studied. Temperature was studied at shaken bottle scale, while pH control strategy, together with the influence of raw glycerol and its impurities during fermentation were studied employing a 2L STBR. Thereafter, fluid dynamic conditions were considered by changing the stirring speed and the gas supply (air or nitrogen) in the same scale-up experiments. The best results were obtained at a temperature of 37°C, an agitation rate of 200rpm, with free pH evolution from 6.9 and subsequent control at 6.5 and no gas supply during the fermentation, employing an initial concentration of 30g/L of raw glycerol. Under these conditions, the biocatalyst is competitive, leading to results in line with other previous works in the literature in batch conditions, reaching a final concentration of 1,3-propanediol of 13.84g/L, with a yield of 0.45g/g and a productivity of 1.19g/(Lh) from raw glycerol.

Abstract
Short chain diols (propanediols, butanediols, pentanediols) have been widely used in bulk and fine chemical industries as fuels, solvents, polymer monomers and pharmaceutical precursors. The chemical production of short chain diols from fossil resources has been developed and optimized for decades. Consideration of the exhausting fossil resources and the increasing environment issues, the bio-based process to produce short chain diols is attracting interests. Currently, a variety of biotechnologies have been developed for the microbial production of the short chain diols from renewable feed-stocks. In order to efficiently produce bio-diols, the techniques like metabolically engineering the production strains, optimization of the fermentation processes, and integration of a reasonable downstream recovery processes have been thoroughly investigated. In this review, we summarized the recent development in the whole process of bio-diols production including substrate, microorganism, metabolic pathway, fermentation process and downstream process.

Abstract
The production of 1,3-propanediol (PD) by a newly isolated Citrobacter freundii strain [FMCC-B 294 (VK-19)] was investigated. Different grades of biodiesel-derived glycerol were employed. Slightly lower PD biosynthesis was observed in batch experiments only when crude glycerol from waste-cooking oil trans-esterification was utilized and only at elevated initial substrate concentrations employed. Batch bioreactor cultures revealed the capability of the strain to tolerate elevated amounts of substrate (glycerol up to 170 g/L) and produce quantities of PD in such high substrate concentrations. Nevertheless, maximum PD quantities (45.9 g/L) were achieved at lower initial glycerol concentrations (∼100 g/L) employed, suggesting some inhibition exerted due to the increased initial substrate concentrations. In order to improve PD production, a fed-batch fermentation was carried out and 68.1g/L of PD were produced (the highest PD quantity achieved by C. freundii strains so far) with yield per glycerol consumed ∼0.40 g/g and volumetric productivity 0.79 g/L/h. Aiming to perform a more economical and eco-friendlier procedure, batch and fed-batch fermentations under completely non-sterile conditions were carried out. During non-sterilized fed-batch process, 176 g/L of raw glycerol were converted to 66.3g/L of PD, suggesting the potentiality of the non-sterile fermentation by C. freundii FMCC-B 294.
