Problems solved by technology

The second-generation bioenergy is mainly ethanol produced from waste cellulose resources such as straw. The source of cellulose is extensive and abundant, but a large amount of toxic inhibitory substances produced during the pretreatment process is a major limiting factor.
[0005] At present, a large number of laboratory cultures and pilot tests have been used in the field of microalgae to produce diesel oil. Existing studies have shown that under the conditions of non-autotrophic, nitrogen deficiency or high density, it is helpful for the accumulation of intracellular oil in microalgae, but for The underlying metabolic mechanisms are still poorly understood, and this is a key limiting factor for the large-scale industrial use of microalgae for biodiesel production.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving a microalgae cultivation condition by using metabonomics so as to improve the oil-producing capacity. The method comprises the following steps of: (1) detecting intracellular metabolites in microalgae; (2) analyzing the oil-producing capacity of the microalgae; (3) performing partial least squares (PLS) analysis; and (4) process analysis. The oil-producing process of the microalgae, an intracellular metabolism change rule and important metabolites in the oil-producing process can be researched wholly by the method, and the change rule of the metabolism levels lays a base for the internal mechanism of the oil-producing process, so a theoretical base is laid for further optimizing a microalgae cultivation process and improving the grease yield. A new concept and a new method are provided for the research on other oil-producing microorganism cultivation processes.

Description

field of invention [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biofuels, and relates to a method for improving microalgae culture conditions by using metabolomics to increase oil production capacity. Background technique [0002] With the depletion of fossil energy and people's increasing attention to environmental protection, the development of sustainable green new energy has been put on the agenda and attracted more and more attention. The earliest bioenergy was derived from food crops, but due to land competition with grain, it caused a serious food crisis, and now it is gradually replaced by the second generation of bioenergy. The second-generation bioenergy is mainly ethanol produced from waste cellulose resources such as straw. The source of cellulose is extensive and abundant, but a large amount of toxic inhibitory substances produced during the pretreatment process is a major limiting factor. And ethanol is more corrosive and less potent than gasoline or diesel. ...
