1 FORTH/ICE-HT activities towards bio-based materials for the FUTURE of Bio-Based-Industries based on Breakthrough technologies PHAs with advanced properties, adequate to serve as food packaging materials from exploitation of food wastes and residues George Voyiatzis Research Director, Biological Filters Catalysts for Green Diesel Production Metabolic Engineering, Synthetic and Systems Biology Polymers and Coatings with Specific Functionalities Safety Analysis
2 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) Linear homo- or hetero-polyesters of hydroxyacids that are accumulated by numerous bacteria under unbalanced nutrients supply, as reserve of carbon and energy source as inclusion bodies ( μm) m = 1-13 x = 1-4 n = *10 4 short-chain-length (SCL) up to C 5 hydroxy-acids medium-chain-length (MCL) C 6 -C 16 hydroxyacids PHAs intracellular granules formed in Pseudomonas putida (Ward et al., 2005, Appl Env. Microb. 72: ) x=1 C m H 2m+1 = H poly(-3-hydroxypropionate) P3-HP CH 3 poly(-3-hydroxybutyrate) P3-HB C 2 H 5 poly(-3-hydroxyvalerate) P3-HV C 3 H 7 poly(-3-hydroxyhexanoate) P3-HHx C 5 H 9 poly(-3-hydroxyoctanoate) P3-HO x=2 C m H 2m+1 = H poly(-4-hydroxybutyrate) P4-HB x=4 C m H 2m+1 = H poly(-6-hydroxyhexanoate) P6-HHx Aldor and Keasling, 2003, Curr Op Biotechn 14: PhaA : beta ketotheolase PhaB : acetoacetylcoa reductase PhaC : PHA synthase PhaG : 3-hydroxylCoA tranferase PhaJ : (R)-EnoylCoA hydratase
3 Feedstocks for sustainable PHAs production Although the expanding interest shown the previous decades for the commercialization of bio-based biodegradable polymers, there are still different issues to be addressed in order PHAs to become antagonistic in the market, since the market price of fossils bioplastics is up to 10 times lower compared to that of PHAs. The cost of the chosen carbon source for PHAs production can be a hurdle for their commercialization Carbohydrates, fatty acids and lipids can easily be converted by various bacteria towards scl or mcl PHAs Wastes and residues of low or zero cost such as food wastes, can be used as feedstocks by PMC or MMC. Recovery of carbon sources via fractionation Acidification of carbohydrate content for SCFAs production such as butyrate, valerate, hexanoate etc., i.e. precursors for productions of heteropolymers Since the production of PHAs is actually based on the bio-transformation of carbohydrates, fatty acids and consequently lipids, substances that are quite abundant such as food wastes could be an ideal feedstock. Type Carbon source Pretreatment Domestic FW OMW, cheese whey (agroindustrial FW) Industrial FW Lignocellulosic biomass Sugars Starch cellulose, hemicellulose Lipids and oils cellulose, hemicellulose Direct accumulation Hydrolysis needed Hydrolysis needed Direct accumulation Removal of lignin and hydrolysis needed Acidification Fermentation of carbohydrate based wastes via acidogenic microorganisms Fatty acids

6 On going and Future research Exploitation of agro-industrial and industrial food wastes for PHAs production with advanced properties in a concept of circular economy 1. Production of selected PHAs precursors by : Recovery and separate exploitation of different carbon sources Fractionation of feedstock via physicochemical methods Manipulation of anaerobic metabolism during acidification process in order to maximize certain types of SCFAs Application of different fermentation strategies (types of reactors, operational conditions) 2. Production of PHAs products suitable for food packaging applications by: Manipulation of metabolism of PMCs and MMCs Application of different nutrient limitations strategies and feeding strategies (periodic alteration of carbon sources, different mixtures of precursors etc) Molding tests using PHAs based materials (co-polymers, blends, composites) recognition of behavior on demand production for specific applications - FORTH/ICEHT - Laboratory of Environmental Biotechnology -
