Abstract

Bioethanol was produced using the separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF) method with macroalgal polysaccharides from the seaweed, Undaria pinnatifida as biomass. This study focused on the pretreatment, enzymatic saccharification, and fermentation of yeasts in co-culture. Ethanol fermentation with 14.5% (w/v) seaweed hydrolysate was performed using the yeasts, Saccharomyces cerevisiae KCTC 1126 alone, Pichia angophorae KCTC 17574 alone, and their co-cultures with the yeasts either adapted to mannitol or not. Among the combinations, the co-culture of non-adapted S. cerevisiae and P. angophorae adapted to mannitol showed high bioethanol production of 12.2 g/l and an ethanol yield ($Y_{EtOH}$) of 0.41. Co-culture in the SSF process was employed in this study, to increase the ethanol yields of 35.2% and reduction of 33.3% in fermentation time. These results provide suitable information on ethanol fermentation with marine seaweeds for bioenergy production.

해조류 중 갈조류인 미역으로부터 분리당화발효(SHF)를 위한 전처리 및 효소당화를 검토하고, 기존의 분리당화발효(SHF)를 개선하기 위해 공배양발효(co-culture)를 수행하였다. 비순치 효모와 고농도 mannitol에 순치(adaptive evolution)한 효모를 이용한 공배양발효를 실시한 결과 발효 72시간에 12.2 g/l의 에탄올과 에탄올 수율($Y_{EtOH}$) 0.41을 나타내었다. 이러한 기존의 분리당화발효(SHF)를 개선한 공배양발효를 통해 에탄올 생산 수율이 0.23에서 0.41로 35.2% 증가하였으며, 에탄올 발효시간도 108시간에서 72시간으로 33.3% 감소하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 해양 바이오매스인 해조류로부터 바이오연료 생산과정에 있어 유용한 정보를 제공하는 것으로 판단된다.
