摘要
The aim of this study was to evaluate the production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) by fermentation of Crude Glycerin, a byproduct of the biodiesel industry, by Cupriavidus necator IPT 026, 027 and 028. The influence of fermentation time and temperature in shake flasks were evaluated. The highest PHA production (2.82 g L-1) occurred at 35 degrees C for 72 h of fermentation. The melting and initial thermal degradation temperatures of this PHA were 177.9 degrees C and 306.33 degrees C, respectively, with 55% crystallinity. FTIR spectrum was similar to those reported in literature. The polymer obtained presented three different methyl esters of hydroxyalkanoates in its composition, with molecular weight of 630 kDa. Bacteria can use Crude Glycerin as an inexpensive substrate to produce value-added biodegradable products, such as PHA.
