Abstract:
The use of waste in the production of enzymes, which is one of the products with high added value, is one of the right strategies to reduce the production cost of the product and sustainability movement. In this study, the production of polygalacturonase (PGase) and pectin lyase (PLase) enzymes from Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 in fed batch submerged fermentation, the conditions and composition of the fermentation medium and the effects of pretreatment methods (thermal, thermo-chemical, microwave assisted dilute acid (MWDA)) on the conversion of fermentable sugar from black carrot pulp were investigated. The MW-DA was chosen the best with higher fermentable sugar content (FSC). The three different powers (300, 600, 850 W) and 3 different treatment time (30, 60, 90 s) were examined by Taguchi design. The highest FSC was found at 300 Watt for 30 seconds. MW-DA followed by ES produced the most fermentable sugar (0.493 g/g, 87.3% conversion). The amount of fermentable sugar was enhanced from 15.8% to 87.3% when MW-DA treatment is combined with enzymatic saccharification (ES). Yeast extract, whey and pea protein were examined as nitrogen sources. According to the enzyme activity results obtained, the fermentation medium was modified with pea protein. Certain concentrations (2.5%, 5%, 10%, 15%) were fed to the fermentation medium. The highest PGase activity was determined at the 15% feed concentration and 72th hours (164.34±2.26 U/L) whereas the highest PLase activity was obtained at 72th hours (188.22±1.72 U/L) at 5% feed concentration. Keywords: Polygalacturonase, Pectin Lyase, Bioconversion, Waste Management, Fed Batch Fermentation, Microwave Pretreatment.
