Journal ArticleDOI
Bioproduction of butanol from biomass: from genes to bioreactors
TL;DR: Advances in integrated fermentation and in situ product removal processes have resulted in a dramatic reduction of process streams, reduced butanol toxicity to the fermenting microorganisms, improved substrate utilization, and overall improved bioreactor performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Butanol production from agricultural residues: Impact of degradation products on Clostridium beijerinckii growth and butanol fermentation
TL;DR: The effect of some of the lignocellulosic hydrolysate inhibitors associated with C. beijerinckii BA101 growth and acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE) production decreased significantly and had stimulatory effect on the growth of the microorganism and ABE production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of acetone, butanol and ethanol by Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 and in situ recovery by gas stripping
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of gas stripping on the in situ removal of acetone, butanol, and ethanol from batch reactor fermentation broth was examined and the mutant strain (Clostridium beijerinckii BA101) was not affected adversely by gas stripping.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acetone butanol ethanol (ABE) production from concentrated substrate: reduction in substrate inhibition by fed-batch technique and product inhibition by gas stripping.
TL;DR: Acetone butanol ethanol (ABE) was produced in an integrated fed-batch fermentation-gas stripping product-recovery system using Clostridium beijerinckii BA101 with H2 and CO2 as the carrier gases to eliminate the substrate and product inhibition that normally restricts ABE production and sugar utilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Butanol fermentation research: Upstream and downstream manipulations
TL;DR: It was found that C. beijerinckii BA101 was defective in PTS activity and that it compensates for this defect with enhanced glucokinase activity, resulting in an ability to transport and utilize glucose during the solventogenic stage, and gas stripping appears to be the most promising.
