Intensive Production of Carboxylic Acids Using C. butyricum in a Membrane Bioreactor (MBR)

Intensive Production of Carboxylic Acids Using C. butyricum in a Membrane Bioreactor (MBR)

This work reports on the use of a bench-scale chemostat (CSTR) in continuous mode and of a pilot-scale membrane bioreactor (MBR) in fed-batch mode to intensively produce acetic and butyric acids using C. butyricum grown on synthetic media. These studies were then used to perform a cost estimation st...
