TLDR
The use of a furfural-resistant strain developed through domestication effectively increased the titer of FA and this capacity of the microorganisms to produce high amounts of FA by bioconverting corncob hydrolyte can be further applied for industrial production of FA.
Abstract
The use of microorganism fermentation for production of fumaric acid (FA), which is widely used in food, medicine, and other fields, can provide technical support for the FA industry. In this study, we aimed to increase the titer of FA production by using an improved Rhizopus oryzae WHT5, which was domesticated to obtain a furfural-resistant strain in corncob hydrolytes. The metabolic pathways and metabolic network of this strain were investigated, and the related enzymes and metabolic flux were analyzed. Metabolic pathway analysis showed that the R. oryzae WHT5 strain produced FA mainly through two pathways. One occurred in the cytoplasm and the other was a mitochondrial pathway. The key parameters of the fermentation process were analyzed. The FA titer was 49.05 g/L from corncob hydrolytes using R. oryzae WHT5 in a 7-L bioreactor. The use of a furfural-resistant strain developed through domestication effectively increased the titer of FA. This capacity of the microorganisms to produce high amounts of FA by bioconverting corncob hydrolyte can be further applied for industrial production of FA.

Comparison of fumaric acid production by Rhizopus oryzae using different neutralizing agents.

TL;DR: The NaHCO3 alternative has advantages of cell reuse and simple downstream processing because of the high solubility of sodium fumarate, and these advantages may offset the disadvantages of using NaH CO3 as the neutralizing agent, and the overall fumaric acid weight yield and volumetric productivity will increase.
