Biological conversion of carbon monoxide to ethanol: Effect of pH, gas pressure, reducing agent and yeast extract [PDF]
, 2012 A two-level full factorial design was carried out in order to investigate the effect of four factors on the bioconversion of carbon monoxide to ethanol and acetic acid by Clostridium autoethanogenum: initial pH (4.75–5.75), initial total pressure (0.8–1 ...

H<sub>2</sub> Consumption by Various Acetogenic Bacteria Follows First-Order Kinetics up to H<sub>2</sub> Saturation. [PDF]
Biotechnol BioengMuñoz‐Duarte and coworkers found that H2 consumption by various acetogenic bacteria followed first‐order kinetics, i.e. the H2 consumption rate increased linearly with the dissolved H2 concentration up to H2 saturation. Biomass specific first‐order rate coefficients of eight different strains varied up to six‐fold, with the highest value for ...

Bioprocess development with Clostridium ljungdahlii based on metabolic modelling
, 2023 Bacterial synthesis gas (syngas) fermentation offers a promising solution for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions - the greatest challenge of today’s society. The substrate gas, which mainly consists of CO2, CO, and H2, represents an inexpensive feedstock originating from agricultural, industrial, and municipal wastes.
