| abstract | 1528011 Continuous cultivation of bacteria &c on methanol &c SHELL INTERNATIONALE RESEARCH MAATSCHAPPIJ BV 9 Feb 1976 [11 Feb 1975] 5747/75 Heading C6F In a process for the production of microorganisms involving continuously cultivating one or more hydrocarbon or oxygenated hydrocarbon utilizing micro-organisms under aerobic conditions in a liquid growth medium comprising assimilable sources of nitrogen and essential mineral salts in the presence of a hydrocarbon or oxygenated hydrocarbon, withdrawing from the growing culture, liquid growth medium containing micron organisms, separating micro-organisms from the withdrawn liquid growth medium and recycling at least part of the withdrawn liquid growth medium to the growing culture, the withdrawn liquid growth medium is chilled to a temperature in the range of -5 to +20C prior to, or during, the separation of the micro-organisms. It is stated that any buildup of growth-inhibiting material during the separation stage is avoided and contamination of the separation and recycle lines by undesirable anaerobic micro-organisms is discouraged as a result of the chilling. The hydrocarbon or oxygenated hydrocarbon may for example be natural gas, methane or methanol. The Examples relate to the continuous cultivation of a mixed culture of microorganisms comprising a methanol-utilizing bacterium and four non-methanol utilizing bacteria in methanolic culture medium, with recycle of the culture medium and recovery of the micro-organisms produced. The cultivation temperature was 40 or 42C and the chilling temperature 0C. Growth inhibition was encountered when recycling took place without the chilling according to the invention. |
