Fly ash based robust biocatalyst generation: a sustainable strategy towards enhanced green biosurfactant production and waste utilization
Biosurfactants have been well recognized as an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical surfactants. However, their production remains challenging due to low productivity, short-term microbe stability and the potentially toxic by-products generated in the growth media. To overcome these chal...

description | Biosurfactants have been well recognized as an environmentally friendly alternative to chemical surfactants. However, their production remains challenging due to low productivity, short-term microbe stability and the potentially toxic by-products generated in the growth media. To overcome these challenges, the emerging biofilm-based biosynthesis was investigated in this study. A fresh insight into the biosynthesis process was provided through using waste fly ash as a carrier material. The biofilm produced by biosurfactant producer B. subtilis N3-1P attached onto the surface of fly ash acted as a robust and effective biocatalyst. Zeta potential analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM) characterization were conducted to help unravel the biocatalyst formation. High-value biosurfactant products were then produced in an efficient and sustainable manner. Stimulation by a fly ash assisted biocatalyst on biosurfactant production was confirmed. The biosurfactant yield was boosted over ten times after 24 hours, at a fly ash dosage of 0.5%. The highest biosurfactant yield was achieved after five days, with a final productivity of 305 critical micelle dilution. The underlying mechanism of fly ash assisted biosurfactant production was tracked through it exerting an effect on the quorum sensing system. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) analysis demonstrated that the final biosurfactant product belonged to the lipopeptides. This research output is expected to accelerate the development of more effective bioreactors, and make a continuous contribution to high-value product generation and waste reduction. |
