Efficient Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoate Through Halophilic Bacteria Utilizing Algal Biodiesel Waste Residue.


ABSTRACT: The objective of the current work was to investigate the potential of halophilic bacterial isolates for efficient utilization of crude glycerol from algal biodiesel waste into polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) a green plastic. Screening of the isolates was directly done in algal biodiesel waste residue containing solid agar plates supplemented with Nile red. Crude glycerol is a biodiesel waste whose bioconversion into value-added products provides an alternative for efficient management with dual benefit. For the scale-up studies of PHAs, Halomonas spp. especially H. daqingensis was observed as a potential candidate growing well in 3% Algal biodiesel waste residue (ABWR), 5% NaCl supplementation at 35°C within 48 h of incubation. Maximum Cell dry weight (CDW) of 0.362 ± 0.001 g and 0.236 ± 0.003 g PHA was obtained with H. daqingensis when grown in the fermentor with 0.5 vvm air flow rate and 200 rpm containing 3% ABWR supplemented with 5% NaCl at 35°C incubation temperature for 48 h. ABWR can serve as a sole substrate for PHA production at an industrial scale serving two approaches: getting rid of the biodiesel industrial waste containing high amount of glycerol besides using waste replacing commercial substrate thereby reducing the cost of the product.
