TY - GEN A1 - Rothkranz, Berit A1 - Krafft, Simone A1 - Tippkötter, Nils T1 - Media optimization for sustainable fuel production: How to produce biohydrogen from renewable resources with Thermotoga neapolitana T2 - Chemie Ingenieur Technik N2 - Hydrogen is playing an increasingly important role in research and politics as an energy carrier of the future. Since hydrogen has commonly been produced from methane by steam reforming, the need for climate-friendly, alternative production routes is emerging. In addition to electrolysis, fermentative routes for the production of so-called biohydrogen are "green" alternatives. The application of microorganisms offers the advantage of sustainable production from renewable resources using easily manageable technologies. In this project, the hyperthermophilic, anaerobic microorganism Thermotoga neapolitana is used for the productio nof biohydrogen from renewable resources. The enzymatically hydrolyzed resources were used in fermentation leading to yield coefficients of 1.8 mole H₂ per mole glucose when using hydrolyzed straw and ryegrass supplemented with medium, respectively. These results are similar to the hydrogen yields when using Thermotoga basal medium with glucose (TBGY) as control group. In order to minimize the supplementation of the hydrolysate and thus increase the economic efficiency of the process, the essential media components were identified. The experiments revealed NaCl, KCl, and glucose as essential components for cell growth as well as biohydrogen production. When excluding NaCl, a decrease of 96% in hydrogen production occured.

Biomasses are attracting more interest due to the low environmental impacts, low costs, and high availability on earth. In this scenario, green biorefineries are a promising platform in which green biomasses are used as feedstock. Grasses are mainly composed of cellulose and hemicellulose, and lignin is available in a small amount. In this work, a perennial ryegrass was used as feedstock to develop a green bio-refinery platform. Firstly, the grass was mechanically pretreated, thus obtaining a press juice and a press cake fraction. The press juice has high nutritional values and can be employed as part of fermentation media. The press cake can be employed as a substrate either in enzymatic hydrolysis or in solid-state fermentation. The overall aim of this work was to demonstrate different applications of both the liquid and the solid fractions. For this purpose, the filamentous fungus A. niger and the yeast Y. lipolythica were selected for their ability to produce citric acid. Finally, the possibility was assessed to use the press juice as part of fermentation media to cultivate S. cerevisiae and lactic acid bacteria for ethanol and lactic acid fermentation.

A1 - Tippkötter, Nils A1 - Ulber, Roland T1 - Fermentation von Hydrolysaten aus Lignocellulose T2 - Chemie Ingenieur Technik N2 - Die ökonomische Abhängigkeit von fossilen Brennstoffen und der klimatische Wandel durch die Nutzung dieser haben zu einer intensiven Suche nach erneuerbaren Rohstoffen für die Produktion von Chemikalien und Treibstoffen geführt. Ein viel versprechender Rohstoff in diesem Zusammenhang sind Zucker, die mittels enzymatischer Hydrolyse aus Lignocellulose gewonnen werden können. Die Fermentation erfolgt mit Cellulose- bzw. Hemicellulose-Fraktionen, welche durch thermo-chemische Vorbehandlung von Holz gewonnen und anschließend enzymatisch hydrolysiert werden. Die in den Hydrolysaten enthaltenen Zuckermonomere dienen als Kohlenstoffquelle für die Produktion von Ethanol. Da sowohl Glucose als auch Xylose in den unterschiedlichen Fraktionen enthalten sind, wird zur Umsetzung dieser eine Co-Fermentation zweier Hefen durchgeführt. Im Rahmen der Optimierung dieser Fermentationen werden neben der Ergänzung der Hydrolysate durch notwendige Salze auch Verfahrenweisen wie Fed-Batch-Fermentationen untersucht. Ein weiterer interessanter Ansatz, welcher in diesem Rahmen geprüft wird, ist die enzymatische Hydrolyse der Lignocellulose-Fraktionen und die simultane Fermentation der dabei entstehenden Zucker in einem Schritt. Des Weiteren wurde die Eignung der Hydrolysate für die Biomasseproduktion anderer Mikroorganismen wie Escherichia coli getestet.

The sensing mechanism is based on the detection of the intrinsic molecular charge of target cDNA molecules after the hybridization event between cDNA and immobilized probe ssDNA. The test solutions contain synthetic cDNA oligonucleotides (with a sequence of tuberculosis mycobacteria genome) or PCR-amplified DNA (which origins from a template DNA strand that has been extracted from Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis-spiked human sputum samples), respectively. Sensor responses up to 41 mV have been measured for the test solutions with DNA, while only small signals of ∼5 mV were detected for solutions without DNA. The lower detection limit of the EIS sensors was ∼0.3 nM, and the sensitivity was ∼7.2 mV/decade. Fluorescence experiments using SybrGreen I fluorescence dye support the electrochemical results.

To verify the null hypothesis that the data come from a specific distribution, an integral type test based on a Cramér-von-Mises statistic is suggested. The convergence in distribution of the test statistic under the null hypothesis is proved and the test's consistency is concluded. Moreover, properties under local alternatives are discussed. Applications are given for data of huge but finite dimension and for functional data in infinite dimensional spaces. A general approach enables the treatment of incomplete data. In simulation studies the test competes with alternative proposals.
