1 Enhanced production of microbial cellulose 2009 International Conference on Nanotechnology for the Forest Products Industry June 23 26, 2009 Jeffrey Catchmark, Kuan Chen Cheng and Ali Demirci Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering Pennsylvania State University
2 Overview 1) Introduction 2) Difference between plant and microbial cellulose 3) Microbial cellulose production methods 4) Approaches for improving the production yield of microbial cellulose: Culture additives Plastic composite supports (PCS) 5) Conclusions
3 The Forest Products Industry The forest products industry generates more than $200 billion in sales per year, employs ~1.0 million people (many in rural America), and ranks among gthe top 10 domestic manufacturing sectors in contribution to the GDP. Uses million acres of land (U.S.). Consumes ~ 4 billion trees per year (globally). This industry produces many renewable and sustainable products which are essential to our daily life: Paper, packaging, wood, wood chip and fiber composite materials.
4 Cellulose used in the FPI is purified from wood Wood is composed of 3 major compounds: Wood is 40% 50% Cellulose, 25% 35% Hemicellulose and 20% 25% Lignin. Cellulose: high molecular weight linear chain polysaccharide, β linked 1,4 glucan (glucose) residues (10 s of thousands of units long). Hemicellulose: lower molecular weight branched chain polysaccharides produced from other 6 carbon sugars including galactose and mannose, as well as five carbon sugars including xylose and arabinose (hundreds of units long). Lignin: complex high molecular weight polymer built upon phenylpropane units. Lignin is phenolic (aromatic compound derived from the 6 carbon compound benzene ring with at least 1 hydroxyl group per ring). Lignin serves as a binding agent and provides wood with its stiffness. Cellulose without lignin and hemicellulose is like cotton fabric!
5 Microbial cellulose Advantages Pure, no hemicellulose or lignin needed to be removed and biomass/culture media relatively simple to remove. Longer fiber length (200,000 glucose units) and higher crystallinity. Can be grown to any shape. Disadvantages Expensive: sugar and culture media. Production scale up difficult. Insolubility and aggregation of cellulose product limits the bioreactor design and yield.

12 Plant vs. microbial cellulose 36 joined cellulose synthase proteins (rosette) produce cellulose nanofibers in plants. Bacteria have 1 6 cellulose synthase proteins. ~28nm
13 Implications: cellulose nanowhiskers Hydrolyzed Acetobacter xylinum cellulose Fiber size: ~10 15nm ~1 3microns Concentrated hydrolyzed Whatman CF11 cellulose (cotton) Fiber size: ~25nm microns Cellulose hydrolyzed in 63% H 2 SO 4 at 47C for 130min.
14 Cellulose synthase complexes Why have cellulose synthase complexes formed? Create a crystalline cellulose fibril Achieve mechanical strength Achieve resistance to enzymatic attack Others
15 Microbial cellulose production processes
16 Microbial cellulose production Most common production processes are static cultures and submerged agitated cultures. Oxygen delivery to bacteria a major factor. Flask (agitated) Bioreactor (agitated) Pellicle (Static)
17 Bioreactor production Unlike static and flask cultivation, bioreactors offer additional control over process parameters: Agitation Temperature Dissolved oxygen ph
18 Other production approaches Rotating disc reactors (Serafica, 1997) Rotating plates pass through the media providing oxygen and nutrients. Can control environment and introduce additives.
19 Other production approaches Silicone membrane (Yoshino et al., 1996) Spray chamber (Hornung, et al., 2006) Microbial cellulose
20 Research objectives Enhance production of microbial cellulose in submerged culture by: Incorporating additives Incorporating a solid nutrient support Evaluate the properties of cellulose produced.
21 Characterization DMA FE SEM Dynamic mechanic analysis FESEM Material strength BC structure TGA Thermo Gravimetric (TGA) Thermostability X-ray diffraction Crystallinity; Crystal size XRD
22 Experimental design: effect of additives Additives Microcrystalline cellulose Sodium alginate Sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) Agar 0.2, 0.5% (w/v) 5 day cultivation in 250 ml flasks Bacterial strain: Acetobacter xylinum (ATCC ) Medium: CSL Fru medium (Kouda et al. 1997) Removal of cells and media (0.1 N, NaOH ) Harvest cellulose and analyze Cellulose producing bacteria first reported by Adrian Brown while working with Bacterium aceti in 1886.

26 Results: cellulose crystallinity The decrease in crystallinity is responsible for the increased cellulose yield, as shown by Haigler (J Cell Biol 94(1):64 69, 1982), where cellulose crystallization is shown to be a rate limiting step in cellulose production.

31 Results: aggregation of product 0.8% CMC No CMC Addition of CMC in bioreactor culture may prevent aggregation while also substantially improving yield
32 Conclusions: effects of additives The optimal CMC concentration is around 0.8% (w/v), where cellulose production reached 8.2 g/l, a 6.3 improvement over the control. The crystallinity and crystal size of the cellulose decrease when cultured in 0.8% CMC. The aggregation of cellulose is prevented when cultured in 0.8% CMC. The decrease in crystallinity and/or aggregation is believed to be responsible for the substantial improvement in cellulose production yield.
33 Experiment: solid nutrient support Biofilm reactor cultivation uses a solid nutrient support to form a stable biofilm (bacteria colonies). Advantages: Release nutrients locally. Cells grow on the solid surface. Increase biomass in the reactor. Reduces the risk of washing out cells during continuous fermentation. Eliminating need for reinoculation during repeatedbatch fermentation. PCS Plastic composite (nutrient) support

45 Conclusions: PCS solid nutrient support The PCS biofilm reactor using SFYR+ type PCS yielded cellulose production of 7.05 g/l, which was 2.5 fold greater than the control. XRD results demonstrated that PCS grown cellulose exhibited higher crystallinity (93%) and similar crystal size (5.2 nm) to the control. TGA results indicated that PCS grown cellulose exhibited higher decomposition temperature compared to the control but PCS support material incorporation is expected to be a contributing factor. DMA results showed that cellulose from the PCS biofilm reactor increased its mechanical property values, i.e., stress at break and Young s modulus when compared to the control cellulose but PCS support material incorporation is expected to be a contributing factor.
