고농도 균체배양에 의한 알콜발효특성 규명 (비성장속도와 당농도, 균체농도, 알콜농도의 함수관계)

Abstract

Experiments of alcohol fermentation of the yeast,K. fragi1is CBS 1555 were performed to obtain the following results. In these experiments, the initial concentrations of sugar which was composed of inulin and fructose as weight ratio of one to one were 30, 50, 75, 100 and 150g/l and the initial densities of the microorganism were less than 0.5g/l, 10g/1 to 15g/1, and 50g/l. The functional relationship among specific growthrates, sugar concentrations, and alcohol concentrations could be expressed by Aiba-shoda equation and the specific growth rate represented the trend that decreased with increase in the initial concentration of the microorganism. Also, μmax and Ks of Monods equation could be expressed as the function of initial cell concentration like the following equations. μmax=0.8-0.008X Ks=0.54X+8 In the region that sugar, alcohol and cell concentrations were 10g/1 to 120g/l, 0g/l to 60g/l and 0.5g/l to 50g/l respectively, the differences between the experimental values and the calculated ones for specific growth rate approached to 40% with respect to experimental values at the worst cases, but in most cases, those were distributed in the range of less than 20%.
