Brettanomyces custersli를 이용하여 신문지의 유가식 동시 당화발효에 의한 에탄올 생산에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 유가식 동시당화발효에 의한 에탄올 생산을 효과적으로 수행하기 위한 초기 기질 투입 농도는 8%(w/v)이었고 효소의 비용을 감안한 최적 효소 농도는 cellulase의 경우 30EPU/g cellulase, $\beta$-glucosidase와 cellulase의 부피가 0.1(활성비 1.05)이었다. 앞에서 결정된 초기 조건들을 가지고 교반식 반응기에서 수행된 유가식 동시당화발효는 26.8g/L의 에탄올을 생산성에서 회분식 동시당화발효보다 약 2배의 값을 나타내었다.

A novel simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process from the microcrystalline cellulose to ethanol was developed by using $\delta$-integrated recombinant cellulolytic Saccharomyces cerevisiae L2612$L2612\deltaGC$, which can utilize cellulose as carbon and energy sources. The optimum amount of enzymes needed for the efficient conversion of cellulose to ethanol at $30^{\circ}C$ was determined with commercial cellulolytic enzymes. By fed-batch cultivation, the heterologous cellulolytic enzymes were accumulated up to 42.67% of the total cellulase and 29% of the $\beta$-glucosidase needed for the efficient SSF process. When this $\delta$-integrated recombinant yeast was applied to the successive SSF step for ethanol production, 20.35 g/l of ethanol was produced after 12 h from 50 g/l of microcrystalline cellulose. By using this novel SSF process, a considerable amount of commercial enzymes was reduced.

Application of pervaporative extraction of ethanol to simultaneous saccharification and fermentation(SSF) of cellulose was investigated. From batch experiments, optimum cellulose substrate and enzyme loadings were found to be 10% and 15 IFPU/g cellulose, respectively. The cellulose conversion was lowered in fed-batch system due to the ethanol accumulation. The activity of the yeast Saccharomyces uvarum used in this study was significantly reduced at ethanol concentrations above around 40 g/L. From pervaporation experiments using PDMS membrane, ethanol was efficiently separated at 38$^\circ C$ and 10 mmHg of a down stream pressure. The pervaporation unit with 240 cm$^2$ of surface area was combined into the SSF reactor. The continuous removal of ethanol by pervaporation during SSF resulted in an improved cellulose conversion. Within the scope of this experiment, ethanol yields in the pervaporative SSF and simple SSF were 68.3% and 56.6%, respectively. The permeate flux for SSF broth pervaporation was about one-half that for the pervaporation of aqueous ethanol solution. Accordingly, the development of a membrane with higher ethanol selectivity and flux will increase the feasibility of this technology.

Production of acetic acid from cellulosic biomass by Simultaneous Saccharification and Extractive Fermentation (SSEF) was investigated. The homoacetate organism used in this study was a strain of Clostridium thermoaceticum, ATCC # 49707. A batch operation of Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation(SSF) using ${\alpha}$-cellulose at pH 5.5 and 55$^{\circ}C$ yielded 40% conversion of cellulose to acetic acid, while a fed-batch SSF operation produced a maximum acetic acid concentration of 25 g/L, with 50% overall yield. In-situ extractive fermentation to reduce the end-product inhibition on both bacteria and enzyme was carried out. in a batch SSEF using 200 g/L IRA-400 resin, acetic acid concentration reached to 23.9 g/L and acetic acid yield and productivity were observed to be 48% and 0.20 g/L-hr, respectively.

본 연구에서는 제지 슬러지를 이용한 SSF 공정에 L..paracasei KLB58을 적용하여 젖산과 더불어 생균제용 균체를 경제적으로 대량 생산하고자 하였다. KLB58의 배양온도와 섬유소 가수분해 효소인 $\beta$-glucosidase의 농도를 조절하여 최적의 생산 조건을 확인해 본 결과, 37$^{\circ}C$ 에서 2 unit/ml의 $\beta$-glucosidase를 첨가하여 배양하였을 때 최대의 젖산과 균체를 생산하였다. 또한 $\beta$-glucosidase를 포함하지 않아도 상대적으로 많은 양의 젖산과 균체를 생산하였으므로, 이에 대한향후 연구가 기대된다.

Efficient L-lactic acid production from Jerusalem artichoke tubers, by Lactobacillus casei G-02, using simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) in a fed-batch culture, is demonstrated. A kinetic analysis of the SSF revealed that the inulinase activity was subjected to product inhibition, whereas the fermentation activity of G-02 was subjected to substrate inhibition. It was also found that the intracellular NADH oxidase (NOX) activity was enhanced by the citrate metabolism, which dramatically increased the carbon flux of the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) pathway, along with the production of ATP. As a result, when the SSF was carried out at $40^{\circ}C$ after an initial hydrolysis of 1 h and included a sodium citrate supplement of 10 g/l, an L-lactic acid concentration of 141.5 g/l was obtained after 30 h, with a volumetric productivity of 4.7 g/l/h. The conversion efficiency and product yield were 93.6% of the theoretical lactic acid yield and 52.4 g lactic acid/l00 g Jerusalem artichoke flour, respectively. Such a high concentration of lactic acid with a high productivity from Jerusalem artichokes has not been reported previously, making G-02 a potential candidate for the economic production of L-lactic acid from Jerusalem artichokes on a commercial scale.
