Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bioengineering, and in particular relates to a method for increasing the ratio of butanol produced by Clostridium. Background technique
[0002] Butanol is a bulk basic raw material with multiple uses. It can be used as a precursor for the synthesis of various organic compounds in the chemical and chemical fields such as dyes, paints, plastics, resins, and rubbers; it is necessary in the production process of antibiotics and synthetic drugs. An indispensable solvent; it is also a food-grade extractant in the food and fragrance industries. More importantly, butanol is also a high-quality fuel and fuel additive with a higher octane number than ethanol. Studies have shown that the vapor pressure and heat of vaporization of butanol are 0.63psi and 141.3kcal kg respectively -1 , 2.25psi and 204.1kcal kg lower than ethanol -1 ; Its high boiling point (118°C) and low vapor pressure help the cold start of the ...
