筛选生物转化H_2/CO_2气体产乙酸的同型产乙酸菌混培物

Screening of homoacetogen mixed culture converting H_2/CO_2 to acetate

同型产乙酸菌是一类具有巨大工业应用潜力的微生物类群,可利用合成气生成乙醇和乙酸等燃料和化学品。本研究采集城市污泥样品利用Hungate滚管法进行同型产乙酸菌的筛选,并利用其进行H2/CO2气体的生物转化,研究了p H对其乙酸和乙醇生成情况的影响。结果表明,所获得的同型产乙酸菌混培物组成为永达尔梭菌,纺缍形赖氨酸芽胞杆菌和蜡样芽胞杆菌等。该混培物最适p H为5-7。p H为7时混培物利用H2/CO2气体得到乙酸浓度可达到31.69 mmol/L。本研究获得了一种可利用H2/CO2合成乙酸的同型产乙酸菌混培物,为合成气生物转化的工业应用提供了有效的微生物资源。

Homoacetogens are a group of microorganisms with application potential to produce chemicals and biofuels by the bioconversion of synthesis gas. In this study, we collected waste activated sludge samples to screen homoacetogens by Hungate anaerobic technique, and studied the effect of p H on acetate and alcohol production from H2/CO2 gas. The mixed culture contained Clostridium ljungdahlii, Lysinibacillus fusiformis and Bacillus cereus. Acetate concentration achieved 31.69 mmol/L when the initial p H was 7. The mixed culture containing homoacetogen could converting H2/CO2 to acetate, which provides an efficient microbial resource for the bioconversion of synthesis gas.
