1 Harnessing the wonders of the microbial world to solve environmental problems René Rozendal Understanding Microbial Communities - Developing the Potential Isaac Newton Institute Open for Business Event th of December Isaac Newton Institute, Cambridge
2 About Paques Family owned business, founded in 1960 Number of employees: ~400 Number of Business Units: 4 (Europe, China, South America & India) Develop and commercialize novel biological solutions for wastewater and gas treatment More than 1,800 installations worldwide 2
3 Microbial Diversity 3
4 Our approach Application of useful microorganisms from nature in our high rate bioreactors 4 In strong collaboration with universities!
5 Environmental Biotechnology Pure culture processes not feasible on waste Dirty environments, already full of microbes Large flows, so sterilisation not economically feasible Only option: Understand the role that certain target microbes have in nature and recreate their preferred environment inside a bioreactor. Community engineering vs Genetic engineering 5

11 Before the 80 s, flocs were used LOW BIOMASS DENSITY 11
12 Then anaerobic granules were discovered During the 70 s development of anaerobic granular sludge technology (Lettinga) Much more microbial biomass per m 3 reactor, so much higher conversion rates 12

15 Dilution rate < growth rate Microorganisms stay inside the system. 15
16 Dilution rate > growth rate Wash out of microorganisms! 16
17 Dilution rate > growth rate However, microbes are smarter than that! Under the right circumstances microorganisms can form granules to stay in reactor! 17

46 Bioplastic Poly-b-hydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Common and widespread storage material in microorganisms Storage up to 90 wt% in granules Properties similar to petrochemical plastics Biodegradable Made from renewable resources Currently made using conventional fermentation. Too expensive to become a commercial success. Van Loosdrecht & Kleerebezem 46
47 47 New process developed
48 How does it compare? Characteristics Mixed microbial cultures, so normal wastewater treatment No genetically engineered micro-organisms! RBCOD (i.e., VFA) from wastewater as feed No expensive raw materials required! High PHA accumulation percentages (80-90% of dry weight) Lower Downstream Processing costs Direct use possible (i.e., without Downstream Processing) Result: major cost improvement compared to conventional fermentation process! 48
49 Ecological role of bioplastics PHA = Microbial Fat Feed supply Time Pulse feeding of substrate favors growth of bioplastic producing microorganisms: feast famine regime

56 Take away messages Environmental biotechnology is about understanding the role certain target microbes have in nature and recreating their preferred environment inside a bioreactor. In the past environmental biotechnology was mainly about treatment (C, N, S, etc.); the future will be about resource recovery (bioplastic etc.). All our technologies originated at universities, so for us a strong collaboration between universities and companies is of vital importance. 56
