Producing microbial lipids involves for producing biofuel and biodiesel, using microorganism Rhodosporidium toruloides and complex carbon sources, accumulating lipids, then recovering lysing cells, and extracting cellular lipids in solvent
NOVELTY – Producing microbial lipids involves using microorganism Rhodosporidium toruloides CCT0783 and rich complex carbon sources having 15-70g/l sugar. The accumulation of lipids is carried out by adding carbon source having 15-60g/l sugar. The cells comprising lysing cells are recovered by acid solution and extraction of cellular lipids in a solvent having 0-5 coefficient. USE – Method for producing microbial lipids for producing biofuel and biodiesel (all claimed). ADVANTAGE – The method enables to produce high yield of microbial lipids in cost-effective manner, and suitable for industrial production. DETAILED DESCRIPTION – An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for a system for producing microbial lipid, which includes tank, sterilizer, product, liquid separator and extractor. DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) – The drawing shows a schematic view of system for producing microbial lipid. Tank (1) Product (5) Liquid separator (5b) Extractor (5c) Sterilizer (6)
Main Application Field
D16 (Fermentation industry – including fermentation equipment, brewing, yeast production, production of pharmaceuticals and other chemicals by fermentation, microbiology, production of vaccines and antibodies, cell and tissue culture and genetic engineering.); H09 (Fuel products not of petroleum origin – excluding coal handling, preparation or mining, but including coking, briquetting, peat processing synthesis, gas production, coal gasification. Combustion improvement additives for coal, peat and other nonhydrocarbon based fuels are included in this Section together with coal liquefaction and desulphurisation.); D17 (Sugar and starch industry (C07H, C13).); D23 (Oils, fats and waxes – including fatty acids, essential oils, but excluding butter (substitutes) and montan wax (C11B, C).); H06 (Gaseous and liquid fuels – including pollution control. Chemical aspects of catalytic exhaust systems for cars are included as well as liquid or gaseous fuels of non-petroleum origin e.g. methanol or ethanol-based fuels. Combustion improvement additives for liquid fuels are included (C10L).)
