✦ Synopsis
The optimal feed rate profiles of glucose and ammonium hydroxide were calculated using a proposed model, and implemented for the production of poly-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB) by Alcaligenes eutrophus. By implementing these optimal feed rates with a high glucose feed concentration of 700 g/L and an ammonium hydroxide concentration of 7%(w/w), it was possible to achieve a high final cell concentration of 141 g/L and a high PHB concentration of 105 g/L in 40 h of fed-batch operation. The PHB productivity was as high as 2.63 g/(L hr).
