Özet

The present study aims to evaluate the use of cranberry bush fruit pomace (CBFP) (Viburnum opulus L.), which has recently become popular raw material, as a substrate in the presence of a reducing agent to increase biobutanol production by Clostridium beijerinckii DSMZ 6422. For this purpose, some factors were optimized, including the pretreatment, initial concentration of CBFP (5–20%), different types of reducing agents (ascorbic acid, L-cysteine, sodium dithionite and sodium sulfite), different concentrations of sodium dithionite (2.5–15 mM), inoculum concentration (5%, 10%, and 20%), and fermentation time (24–96 h). The maximum biobutanol, total ABE, biobutanol yield, and biobutanol productivity were 9.45 g/L, 12.08 g/L, 0.21 g/g, and 0.13 g/L/h in the medium containing enzymatically hydrolyzed 10% CBFP, 10 mM sodium dithionite, and 20% inoculum at the end of 72 h, respectively. These findings demonstrate that CBFP can be considered as a sustainable, economical, and viable substrate on biobutanol production for the first time in the literature.
