    Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvent Effect on Acrylic Acid Separation From Aqueous Media by Using Reactive Extraction and Modeling With Response Surface Methodology
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022) Lalikoğlu, Melisa; Aşçı, Yavuz Selim; Sırma Tarım, Burcu; Yıldız, Mahmut; Arat, Refik
    Hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDES) are new-generation green solvents that have emerged in recent years. In this study, the efficiency of using HDES as a solvent in separating acrylic acid from its aqueous solution by reactive extraction method was investigated. As a solvent, HDES prepared with a mixture of TOPO and menthol has been used for the recovery of acrylic acid for the first time. Physical properties of HDES mixtures such as density, viscosity, and refractive index were determined. In reactive extraction experiments, TOPO, one of the two basic components in the solvent, was also employed as an extractant. With the help of response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design, the effect of the parameters of amount of extractant (0.1–0.9 g), Menthol/TOPO molar ratio (2–4), and initial acid concentration (3–9%) on the distribution coefficient was investigated and the model equation was formed. The highest distribution coefficient (D = 7.8) was achieved with the molar ratio of Menthol/TOPO is 2. Upon examining all the results obtained, it was seen that more than 90% of acrylic acid could be extracted from the aqueous phase to the organic phase.

    Solid-State Production of Polygalacturonase by Aspergillus Sojae Atcc 20235
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Üstok, Fatma Işık; Tarı, Canan; Göğüş, Nihan
    The effect of solid substrates, inoculum and incubation time were studied using response surface methodology (RSM) for the production of polygalacturonase enzyme and spores in solid-state fermentation using Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235. Two-stage optimization procedure was applied using D-optimal and face-centered central composite design (CCD). Crushed maize was chosen as the solid substrate, for maximum polygalacturonase enzyme activity based on D-optimal design. Inoculum and incubation time were determined to have significant effect on enzyme activity and total spore (p < 0.01) based on the results of CCD. A second order polynomial regression model was fitted and was found adequate for individual responses. All two models provided an adequate R2 of 0.9963 (polygalacturonase) and 0.9806 (spores) (p < 0.001). The individual optimum values of inoculum and incubation time for maximum production of the two responses were 2 × 107 total spores and 5-6 days. The predicted enzyme activity (30.55 U/g solid) and spore count (2.23 × 107 spore/ml) were very close to the actual values obtained experimentally (29.093 U/g solid and 2.31 × 107 spore/ml, respectively). The overall optimum region considering the two responses together, overlayed with the individual optima. Solid-state fermentation provided 48% more polygalacturonase activity compared to submerged fermentation under individually optimized conditions.

    Optimization of Biomass, Pellet Size and Polygalacturonase Production by Aspergillus Sojae Atcc 20235 Using Response Surface Methodology
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Tarı, Canan; Göğüş, Nihan; Tokatlı, Figen
    A two-step optimization procedure using central composite design with four factors (concentrations of maltrin and corn steep liquor (CSL), agitation speed and inoculation ratio) was used in order to investigate the effect of these parameters on the polygalacturonase (PG) enzyme activity, mycelia growth (biomass) and morphology (pellet size) of Aspergillus sojae ATCC 20235. According to the results of response surface methodology (RSM), initial concentrations of maltrin and CSL and agitation speed were significant (p < 0.05) on both PG enzyme production and biomass formation. As a result of this optimization, maximum PG activity (13.5 U/ml) was achievable at high maltrin (120 g/l), at low CSL (0 g/l), high agitation speed (350 rpm) and high inoculation ratio (2 × 107 total spore). Similarly, maximum biomass (26 g/l) could be obtained under the same conditions with only the difference for higher level of CSL requirement. The diameter of pellets in all optimization experiments ranged between 0.05 and 0.76 cm. The second optimization step improved the PG activity by 74% and the biomass by 40%.

    Optimization of Lactic Acid Production From Whey by L Casei Nrrl B-441 Immobilized in Chitosan Stabilized Ca-Alginate Beads
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2005) Göksungur, Mehmet Yekta; Gündüz, Meltem; Harsa, Hayriye Şebnem
    The production of lactic acid from whey by Lactobacillus casei NRRL B-441 immobilized in chitosan-stabilized Ca-alginate beads was investigated. Higher lactic acid production and lower cell leakage were observed with alginate-chitosan beads compared with Ca-alginate beads. The highest lactic acid concentration (131.2 g dm-3) was obtained with cells entrapped in 1.3-1.7 mm alginate-chitosan beads prepared from 2% (w/v) Na-alginate. The gel beads produced lactic acid for five consecutive batch fermentations without marked activity loss and deformation. Response surface methodology was used to investigate the effects of three fermentation parameters (initial sugar, yeast extract and calcium carbonate concentrations) on the concentration of lactic acid. Results of the statistical analysis showed that the fit of the model was good in all cases. Initial sugar, yeast extract and calcium carbonate concentrations had a strong linear effect on lactic acid production. The maximum lactic acid concentration of 136.3 g dm-3 was obtained at the optimum concentrations of process variables (initial sugar 147.35 g dm-3, yeast extract 28.81 g dm-3, CaCO3 97.55 g dm-3). These values were obtained by fitting of the experimental data to the model equation. The response surface methodology was found to be useful in optimizing and determining the interactions among process variables in lactic acid production using alginate-chitosan-immobilized cells.
