Co-utilization of Crude Glycerol and Biowastes for Producing Polyhydroxyalkanoates.
Indian Journal of Microbiology 2018 March
Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production by Bacillus thuringiensis EGU45 and defined mixed culture of Bacillus spp. were studied by using crude glycerol (CG) and hydrolyzed biowastes as feed material. Hydrolysates from onion peels (OP), potato peels, pea-shells (PS), apple pomace 2% total solids obtained with defined mixed hydrolytic cultures (MHC2) were inoculated with B. thuringiensis EGU45 and defined mixed bacterial cultures (5MC1), which produced PHA at the rate of 40-350 and 65-450 mg/L, respectively. Addition of CG (1%, v/v) to these hydrolysates resulted in 1.8-fold and 4.5-fold enhancement in PHA production from OP by B. thuringiensis EGU45 and 5MC1, respectively. Co-utilization of OP and PS (in 2:1 ratio) supplemented with CG (1%, v/v) by B. thuringiensis EGU45 resulted in 2-fold increase in PHA production in comparison to OP + CG. This co-metabolism of OP and PS also enabled PHA co-polymer production (1300 mg/L), having an enhanced HV content of 21.2% (w/w).
