Problems solved by technology

However, due to the limitation of mass transfer conditions, it is difficult for the cells embedded in the gel embedding method to achieve self-renewal, and it is difficult to ensure the viability of the bacteria for a long time, so it is not suitable for live cell fermentation
In addition, gel embedding is expensive and not suitable for large-scale production of propionic acid

Abstract

The invention relates to an immobilized fibrous bed reactor for fermentation production of propionic acid, butyric acid and amber acid. The reactor mainly comprises a reactor (10), fiber material (9), a stirring device (11), a pH automatic control device and a feeding device. The invention is characterized in that the fiber material (9) is fixed in the reactor (10), which is used as carrier for cell immobilization; the pH automatic control device and the feeding device are connected with the reactor (10); the stirring device (11) is suspended in an inner part of the reactor (10). The reactor is used to produce propionic acid, butyric acid and amber acid with high production efficiency and stable batch production. And the device has the advantages of cheap immobilization material, simple arrangement and convenient operation, which are suitable for the industrial production of propionic acid, butyric acid or amber acid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fermentation engineering and relates to an immobilized fiber bed reactor, which is used for the fermentation production of propionic acid, butyric acid and succinic acid. Background technique [0002] Organic acids refer to a class of compounds with a carboxyl group (-COOH) in their molecular structure, and have broad application prospects in the fields of food, feed, and plastics. Traditional organic acid production methods mainly use petroleum as raw material to produce by chemical synthesis. At present, the production of organic acids by biological methods has been favored more and more due to the advantages of natural products and abundant raw materials. However, there are still many problems in organic acid fermentation production. Organic acid microbial fermentation, such as propionic acid, butyric acid, and succinic acid fermentation production, generally has problems such as slow bacterial produ...
