| Abstract | This study investigated butanol fermentation using glucose and culture broth containing butyrate from the butyrate fermentation of a brown alga, Laminaria japonica. Prior to the use of the biologically-produced butyrate, the initial glucose in tryptone-yeast extract acetate (TYA) medium was first optimized for butanol fermentation using Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4 ATCC 27021$^{T}$. Then, a commercially-acquired (synthetic) butyrate was supplemented to the TYA medium containing the optimal glucose concentration (around 30 and 60 g/L). According to the experimental results, the highest butanol carbon yield (0.580 C-mol/C-mol) was obtained from the fermentation of 36.65 g/L glucose and 7.29 g/L synthetic butyrate. Fermentation of a similar amount of glucose (32.28 g/L) in the absence of butyrate gave a butanol carbon yield of 0.402 C-mol/C-mol. For the experiment with fermented butyrate, a 100 g/L biomass of brown alga was fermented by Clostridium tyrobutyricum ATCC 25755 and the culture broth containing butyrate was used to prepare TYA medium after removing the bacterial cells. Fermentation using the synthetic butyrate and the biologically-produced butyrate (4.95 g/L) gave a comparable butanol concentration (13.23 g/L) and butanol carbon yield (0.513 C-mol/C-mol). Overall, this study proved that the addition of fermented butyrate from brown alga fermentation could be an effective way to improve butanol production. Furthermore, the reuse of spent medium and the absence of rigorous purification of the broth containing butyrate would lower the production cost of the fermentation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
