Problems solved by technology

Saccharomyces cerevisiae can synthesize a variety of medium-chain alcohols by itself; Kennes and others have successfully used a variety of pure bacteria to produce medium-chain alcohols such as butanol and hexanol, but the yields are relatively low, and it is far from reaching industrial mass production so as to replace gasoline as fuel. Purpose
In addition, compared with chemical processes, the problems of slow reaction rate and low gas-liquid mass transfer efficiency in syngas fermentation also limit its industrial development.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for producing medium-chain alcohol by exogenous medium enhanced microorganisms. The method comprises the following steps of pretreating an exogenous medium, and performing grinding to obtain exogenous medium particles; pretreating anaerobic microorganisms and performing inoculating into a culture medium; inflating synthesis gas into the culture medium, and culturing and domesticating the microorganisms; inoculating anaerobic medium-chain alcohol production microorganisms, and performing mixing with the exogenous medium particles to obtain a fermentation systemfor producing medium-chain alcohol; and inflating synthesis gas into the culture medium containing a fermentation system, and performing reacting under anaerobic conditions to produce the medium-chainalcohol. The method also comprises two schemes of producing the medium-chain alcohol in a single-phase reactor and a two-phase reactor; According to the method, the fermentation system formed by anaerobic medium-chain alcohol production microorganisms and an exogenous medium can accelerate the absorption and conversion process of the microorganisms on the synthesis gas, and the medium-chain alcohol is produced. The exogenous medium in the fermentation system is not liable to inactivate in the reaction system, anaerobic microorganism death is not liable to cause, and the system can stably operate for 2-36 months.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a production method of medium-chain alcohols. More specifically, it relates to a method for the production of medium-chain alcohols by strengthening anaerobic microbial fermentation with an exogenous medium. [0002] technical background [0003] With the rapid development of modern industry, people's demand for fuel is constantly increasing. However, the reserves of fossil fuels are constantly decreasing, which leads to an urgent need for new and more sustainable energy sources. Large-scale development and utilization of renewable resources as clean energy is becoming increasingly important. Biomass is a renewable and clean resource. Through biotechnology, biomass can be converted into a renewable alternative energy source. [0004] Syngas is CO 2 , CO and H 2 As the main component, it is used as a raw material gas for chemical raw materials. Syngas can be produced by gasification of solid fuels such as coal or coke, it c...
