Abstract

Effects of dilution rate, inlet glucose and ammonium chloride concentrations on ,he performance of continuous culture of Alcaligenes eutrQPhus for poly-p-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) production were investigated. When inlet substrate concentrations were maintained constant (inlet glucose concentration = 20 g/l, inlet ammonium chloride concentration = 2 g/l), growth rate of residual biomass and PHB production rate showed its maximum at $0.1h^{-1}$ and $0.06h^{-1}$, respectively, and washout at $0.13h^{-1}$. PHB content decreased from 50% to 25% by increasing dilution rate, while specific PHB production rate increased continuously. Cell mass and PHB concentration gave its maximum values at inlet ammonium chloride concentration of 2 g/l and thereafter decreased, which showed the existence of substrate inhibition by ammonium. When inlet glucose concentration was 30 g/l, cell mass reached its maximum value, while PHB concentration increased continuously. The parameters of kinetic model were evaluated by the graphical and parameter estimation methods. The computer simulation results for the effects of dilution rate, inlet glucose and ammonium chloride concentrations fitted the experimental data very well.

Alcaligenes eutrophus 균주로 poly-Beta-hydroxybutyrate(PHB) 생산을 위한 연속배양 공정의 성능에 미치는 희석비율, 주입 포도당 및 염화암모늄농도의 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 주입 기질농도가 일정할때( 주입 포도당농도=20g/l, 주입 염화암모늄농도=2g/l), 생체성장속도와 PHB생성속도는 희석비율이 각각 0.1, $0.06h^{-1}$에서 최고 값을 나타냈고, $0.13h^{-1}$에서 세포가 전부 배출되었다. 희석비율이 증가함에 따라 비PHB 생성속도는 계속 증가하였지만 PHB 축적비는 50%에서 25%로 감소하였다. 세포농도는 주입 염화암모늄농도가 2g/l일 때 최고값을 나타내었고, 그 이상의 농도에서는 감소하였다. 이 실험결과로 암모늄에 의한 기질저해가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 주입 포도당농도가 30g/l에서 세포농도는 최고값을 나타냈지만 PHB 농도는 계속 증가하였따. 모델속도식에 대한 매개변수는 도식적 방법과 매개변수 추정으로 구하였고 희석비율, 주입 포도당농도, 주입 염화암모늄농도의영향에 대하여 모사한 결과 실험데이타와 잘 일치하였다.
