Optimization of Biosurfactant Production by Bacillus licheniformis STK 01 Grown Exclusively on Beta vulgaris Waste using Response Surface Methodology

This work reports on the exploitation of Beta vulgaris for biosurfactant production by Bacillus licheniformis STK 01 and its optimization using statistical modeling of response surface methodology (RSM). Three variables were investigated: agro-waste concentration, pH, and temperature. The response a...
