The aim of this study is to examine the adsorption mechanism, using crude glycerol from plant oil esterification as a model system. Changes in the intercalation structure in relation to the amount of fatty acids adsorbed are monitored by X-ray diffraction and infra-red spectroscopy. Additionally, calcination of LDH is investigated in order to increase the binding capacity for fatty acids. Our data propose that, at ambient temperature, fatty acids can be bound to the hydrotalcite by adsorption or in addition by intercalation, depending on fatty acid concentration. The adsorption of fatty acids from crude glycerol shows a BET-like behavior. Above a fatty acid concentration of 3.5 g L-1, intercalation of fatty acids can be shown by the appearance of an increased interlayer spacing. This observation suggests a two phase adsorption process. Calcination of LDHs allows increasing the binding capacity for fatty acids by more than six times, mainly by reduction of structural CO32-.}, language = {en} } @article{TippkoetterDuweWiesenetal.2014, author = {Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Duwe, Anna-Maria and Wiesen, Sebastian and Sieker, Tim and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Enzymatic hydrolysis of beech wood lignocellulose at high solid contents and its utilization as substrate for the production of biobutanol and dicarboxylic acids}, series = {Bioresource Technology}, volume = {167}, journal = {Bioresource Technology}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, doi = {10.1016/j.biortech.2014.06.052}, pages = {447 -- 455}, year = {2014}, abstract = {The development of a cost-effective hydrolysis for crude cellulose is an essential part of biorefinery developments. To establish such high solid hydrolysis, a new solid state reactor with static mixing is used. However, concentrations >10\% (w/w) cause a rate and yield reduction of enzymatic hydrolysis. By optimizing the synergetic activity of cellulolytic enzymes at solid concentrations of 9\%, 17\% and 23\% (w/w) of crude Organosolv cellulose, glucose concentrations of 57, 113 and 152 g L⁻¹ are reached. However, the glucose yield decreases from 0.81 to 0.72gg⁻¹ at 17\% (w/w). Optimal conditions for hydrolysis scale-up under minimal enzyme addition are identified. As result, at 23\% (w/w) crude cellulose the glucose yield increases from 0.29 to 0.49gg⁻¹. As proof of its applicability, biobutanol, succinic and itaconic acid are produced with the crude hydrolysate. The potential of the substrate is proven e.g. by a high butanol yield of 0.33gg⁻¹.}, language = {en} } @article{GrafSteinhofLotzetal.2009, author = {Graf, Alain-Michel and Steinhof, Rafael and Lotz, Martin and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Kasper, Cornelia and Beutel, Sascha and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Downstream-Processing mit Membranadsorbern zur Isolierung nativer Proteinfraktionen aus Kartoffelfruchtwasser}, series = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, volume = {81}, journal = {Chemie Ingenieur Technik}, number = {3}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Weinheim}, doi = {10.1002/cite.200800139}, pages = {267 -- 274}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Bei der St{\"a}rkeproduktion entstehendes Kartoffelfruchtwasser besitzt mit 2 - 3 \% einen hohen Anteil an ern{\"a}hrungsphysiologisch interessanten Proteinen.

The measurements were accomplished with a flow diffusion analysis (FDA) unit from the TRACE Analytics GmbH, Braunschweig, Germany. The diffusion analysis is based on the UV-absorbance of acetic acid at 205 nm. The measurement was achieved by the separation of an acceptor and a carrier stream (acidified fermentation broth) using a gas permeable polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane, whereby broth constituents that would otherwise disturb the UV-measurement of acetic acid, are held back efficiently. Merely, the fermentation by-products, e.g. formic acid, is capable of diffusing through the membrane. While formic acid can disturb the measurement, carbon dioxide does not absorb at 205 nm. The method operates with time-dependent sample enrichment. During the analysis, a small volume of the acceptor stream is stopped for a defined time interval in the acceptor chamber. During this period, the gaseous acetic acid diffuses through the membrane and is enriched in the acceptor chamber. Subsequently after the enrichment, the acceptor stream flows through a UV-detector. The intensity of the signal is proportional to the acetic acid concentration. Online measurements in bioreactors via a sterile filtration probe have been accomplished. A linear calibration in the range of 0.5-5.0 g/L acetic acid with a relative standard deviation of <5 \% was obtained. A sampling rate of 8 samples per hour was possible. The system was applied for the determination of acetic acid in E. coli fermentation broth. The instrument is easy to clean, very user-friendly and does not require any toxic or expensive reagents.}, language = {en} } @article{KapplerTanudyayaSchmittTippkoetteretal.2007, author = {Kappler-Tanudyaya, Nathalie and Schmitt, Heike and Tippk{\"o}tter, Nils and Meyer, Lina and Lenzen, Sigurd and Ulber, Roland}, title = {Combination of biotransformation and chromatography for the isolation and purification of mannoheptulose}, series = {Biotechnology Journal}, volume = {2}, journal = {Biotechnology Journal}, number = {6}, issn = {1860-7314}, doi = {10.1002/biot.200700004}, pages = {692 -- 699}, year = {2007}, abstract = {Mannoheptulose is a seven-carbon sugar.

The study focuses on the combination of biotransformation and downstream processing (preparative chromatography) as an efficient method to produce a pure extract of mannoheptulose. The experiments were divided into two major phases. In the first phase, several methods and parameters were compared to optimize the mannoheptulose extraction with respect to efficiency and purity. In the second phase, a mass balance of mannoheptulose over the whole extraction process was undertaken to estimate the yield and efficiency of the total extraction process. The combination of biotransformation and preparative chromatography allowed the production of a pure mannoheptulose extract.
