Sulfur-deprived

In the approach followed in this invention [29], a biocatalytic agent converts the sulfur heterocycles into different molecules that do not exhibit the hydrophobic interactions. This is achieved by selectively cleaving carbon-sulfur bonds. The selectivity of the biocatalytic agent employed is limited to the carbon-sulfur bonds and no attack to the carbon-carbon skeleton was reported. Thus, it is expected that the proposed biocatalytic reduction of viscosity would not diminish the fuel value of the treated petroleum liquids. The biocatalyst employed consisted of the strain ATCC No. 53968 (see Section 20 and references therein), in an aqueous culture conventionally prepared by fermentation under aerobic conditions. The fermenting bioreactor is fed with a suitable nutrient medium, which comprises a conventional carbon source (dextrose and glycerol are recommended carbon sources. To confer maximal biocatalytic activity for the desired cleavage of organic C—S bonds, the bacteria was kept in a state of sulfur deprivation. [Pg.307]

Although hydrogenase linked H2 production does not require ATP utilization, normal aerobic fixation of atmospheric CO2 does. As will be discussed below, when CO2 fixation does not occur (as is the case under anaerobic, sulfur-deprived condi tions), the accumulation of ATP molecules in the stroma inhibits ATPase function. This results in the non dissipation of the proton gradient and causes the build-up of the proton motive force. It has been shown that, under these conditions, photosynthetic electron transport is down regulated917 and consequently reductant is not available for efficiently producing H2.140... [Pg.233]

In order to address the low cell density issue associated with sulfur-deprived cell suspensions, cell immobilization strategies have been investigated. This resulted in an 18 times increase in the H2-production rates on a per-cell culture volume basis and a 6 times longer period of H2 production by algal cultures immobilized on glass fibers.138 Additionally, the immobilized cultures have increased productivity (2.5 times) on a per illuminated area basis, compared to cell suspensions. [Pg.247]

An early system designed for the sulfur-deprived process required several days to poise the cells for Hj production. This transition period represented lost production compared to continuous operation. Daily start-up of the photobioreactor at sunrise may also decrease production if it extends into the daylight hours. Some other operations, for example, H2 liquefaction processes, would not be a logical choice for a diurnal cycle because of the losses and inefficiencies of starting up and shutting... [Pg.138]

For a stand-alone photobiological (sulfur-deprived, algal) H2-production facility producing 300 kg/day of H2, the total capital investment was estimated to be 5 million with a H2 selling price of approximately 14/kg of hydrogen and a 15% return on investment. This system assumed moderate improvements in the H2-production rate and included PSA purification with high-pressure compressed H2 storage. The total photobioreactor area was 110,000 m with a 10-cm pond depth, 0.2 g/1 cell concentration, and 10/m reactor cost. ... [Pg.139]
