The productivity of the acetone-butanol fermentation was increased by continuously removing acetone and butanol from the fermentation broth during fed-batch culture. Whole broth containing viable cells of Clostridium acetobutylicum was cycled to a Karr reciprocating plate extraction column in which
The effects of growing Clostridiurn acetobutylicurn NCIB 8052 in a chemostat under conditions of glucose, NH,', PO$-, Mg2+, and Fez+ limitation were examined. It was noted that limitation of any major nutrient resulted in the same fermentation pattern. Conditions where minor nutrient levels were red
Fermentation equations for acetone-butanol (AB) were applied in a metabolic analysis of the reaction network under various conditions; that is, at different pHs and a high NADH 2 turnover rate using methyl viologen, in a Clostridium acetobutylicum culture. The results disclosed variations in the pat
## Abstract **BACKGROUND:** Owing to the rapid depletion of petroleum fuel, the production of butanol through biological routes has attracted increasing attention. However, low butanol productivity severely impedes its potential industrial production. It is known that the immobilization of whole ce
