Abstract
Biosurfactants are emerging molecules in the 21st century. However, their production intensification is still required for the development of feasible bioprocesses. Therefore, this paper studies a new biosurfactant-producer, namely Geobacillus stearothermophilus DSM2313 during statistical optimization via response surface methodology. After the statistical analysis the optimal pH = 7, glucose = 50 g/L and NH4NO3 = 2 g/L concentrations were determined. The biosurfactant production of the bacteria was predicted by our developed artificial neural network. The optimal harvesting time of the broth and the emulsification index values can be predicted simultaneously with the constructed artificial neural network. The best experiment was also kinetically described, and kinetic constants observed. Surface tension and emulsification activity were measured to characterize the formed products' efficiency. Based on these results, biosurfactants from Geobacillus stearothermophilus DSM2313 can act as bioemulsifier and can be applied for example in microbial enhanced oil recovery.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
