Biological wheat straw valorization: Multicriteria optimization of Polyporus brumalis pretreatment in packed bed bioreactor.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this work was to optimize the pretreatment process of wheat straw by Polyporus brumalis_BRFM985 in order to improve carbohydrate accessibility for more efficient bioconversion. Indeed, there is growing demands to develop sustainable routes for lignocellulosic feedstocks valorization into value-added products in energy, chemicals, materials, and animal feed fields. To be achieved, implementation of cheap and ecofriendly biomass pretreatment processes is necessary. In this frame, white rot basidiomycetes, well known for their ability to degrade lignin efficiently and selectively, are of great interest. The pretreatment of wheat straw by Polyporus brumalis_BRFM985 was performed in packed bed bioreactor and optimized using response surface methodology. The four pretreatment parameters optimized were metals addition (Cu, Mn, and Fe), time of culture, initial water content, and temperature. Multicriteria optimization highlighted that wheat straw pretreatment by Polyporus brumalis_BRFM985 in the presence of metals with high initial water content of 3.6 g H2 O/g at 27°C for 15-16 days led to an improvement of carbohydrate accessibility with minimal matter loss.

Project description:BackgroundIn this study, the dilute maleic acid pretreatment of wheat straw is optimized, using pretreatment time, temperature and maleic acid concentration as design variables. A central composite design was applied to the experimental set up. The response factors used in this study are: (1) glucose benefits from improved enzymatic digestibility of wheat straw solids; (2) xylose benefits from the solubilization of xylan to the liquid phase during the pretreatment; (3) maleic acid replenishment costs; (4) neutralization costs of pretreated material; (5) costs due to furfural production; and (6) heating costs of the input materials. For each response factor, experimental data were fitted mathematically. After data translation to euro/Mg dry straw, determining the relative contribution of each response factor, an economic optimization was calculated within the limits of the design variables.ResultsWhen costs are disregarded, an almost complete glucan conversion to glucose can be reached (90% from solids, 7%-10% in liquid), after enzymatic hydrolysis. During the pretreatment, up to 90% of all xylan is converted to monomeric xylose. Taking cost factors into account, the optimal process conditions are: 50 min at 170 degrees C, with 46 mM maleic acid, resulting in a yield of 65 euro/Mg (megagram = metric ton) dry straw, consisting of 68 euro/Mg glucose benefits (from solids: 85% of all glucan), 17 euro/Mg xylose benefits (from liquid: 80% of all xylan), 17 euro/Mg maleic acid costs, 2.0 euro/Mg heating costs and 0.68 euro/Mg NaOH costs. In all but the most severe of the studied conditions, furfural formation was so limited that associated costs are considered negligible.ConclusionsAfter the dilute maleic acid pretreatment and subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis, almost complete conversion of wheat straw glucan and xylan is possible. Taking maleic acid replenishment, heating, neutralization and furfural formation into account, the optimum in the dilute maleic acid pretreatment of wheat straw in this study is 65 euro/Mg dry feedstock. This is reached when process conditions are: 50 min at 170 degrees C, with a maleic acid concentration of 46 mM. Maleic acid replenishment is the most important of the studied cost factors.
