Photocatalytic Production of Bisabolene from Green Microalgae Mutant: Process Analysis and Kinetic Modeling

Abstract: Currently, algal fuel research has commenced to shift towards genetically engineered mutants, able to express and excrete desired products directly into the culture. In this study, a mutant strain of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, engineered for bisabolene (alternative biodiesel) excretion, was cultivated at different illumination and temperatures to investigate their effects on cell growth and bisabolene production. Moreover, a kinetic model was constructed to identify the desirable conditions for biofuel synthes… Show more

“…To illustrate the above procedure and demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the modeling framework, a case study is provided with the aim to investigate simultaneously the optimal configurations of a 120 L flat‐plate PBR (i.e., number and diameter of holes on the sparger) and the optimal batch operating conditions (i.e., incident light intensity and gas recycling rate) for the production of bisabolene, a novel sustainable biofuel synthesized from green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii …”

“…A kinetic model presented in Eq. 3 was developed in our recent work to simulate the effects of light intensity and cultivation temperature on algal biomass growth and bisabolene production under nutrient‐sufficient conditions . Equation represents biomass growth rate, and its specific growth rate ( μ ) is a function of local light intensity and temperature formulated as Eqs.…”

“…With the rapid development of digital computing technologies, industrially focused mathematical modeling tools have been extensively applied to chemical engineering systems for process simulation, optimization, control, and design (Marchetti, François, Faulwasser, & Bonvin, ; Voll & Marquardt, ; Zhang, del Rio‐Chanona, & Shah, ). Strong global demand for innovative biotechnologies to sustainably produce energy, food, pharmaceuticals, and platform chemicals (Harun et al, ; Jeandet, Vasserot, Chastang, & Courot, ; Jing et al, ) has opened up great opportunities for computer‐aided technologies in various bio‐production industries, for example, fermentation and photo‐production (Jing et al, ; Wagner, Lee‐Lane, Monaghan, Sharifzadeh, & Hellgardt, ). As most bioprocesses rely on microorganisms to synthesize the desired products, the simulation of the complex microbial activities has become a critical task, requiring the use of state‐of‐the‐art process systems engineering tools for bioprocess optimization and scale‐up.…”

“…For instance, bacteria and yeasts have been utilised extensively to yield a large variety of commercial products ranging from fuels and platform chemicals to pharmaceuticals (Bankar, Dhumal, Bhotmange, Bhagwat, & Singhal, ; Jing et al, ). Recently, attention has increasingly shifted towards microalgae and cyanobacteria to produce renewable biofuels and sustainable high‐value products (Harun et al, ; Zhang & Vassiliadis, ). These approaches provide a competitive alternative to traditional synthetic routes and have considerable demand in the global market.…”
