Intensification of Biobutanol Production in Batch Oscillatory Baffled Bioreactor

Process optimization of butanol production by Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4 (ATCC 13564) using palm oil mill effluent in acetone–butanol–ethanol fermentation

“…A similar pattern was reported by Masngut and Harvey (2012) who studied ABE fermentation under different agitation speeds in a batch oscillatory baffled bioreactor. They observed that the productivity of butanol and ABE obtained by Clostridium GBL1082 decreased using high agitation speeds.…”

Oscillatory Flow Reactors (OFRs) for Continuous Manufacturing and Crystallization

IEA SHC Task 49/IV - Deliverable B5 - Potential Enhancement of Solar Process Heat by Emerging Technologies

“…A number of studies [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] prove that the implementation of OBRs can lead to a significant improvement potential in chemical processing with increase in productivity of 30-40%, shortening of reaction times of 50-90 % and an increase of heat transfer up to a factor of 4. Due to increasing heat transfer coefficients in comparison to stirred tanks, they enable low temperature heat supply and theoretically enable a better integration of solar process heat [1].…”
