    Abstract:
    This work aimed to study the efficiency of nano- and micro- fiber membranes in immobilizing Actinobacillus succinogenes CCTCC M2012036 for succinic acid production. Among the four kinds of electrospun nanofiber membranes of cellulose acetate, chitosan, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and chitosan-PVA, the cellulose acetate nanofiber membrane-immobilized cells performed the best with a succinic acid concentration and yield to be 27.3 ± 3.5 g/L and 70.9 ± 5.8%. The cell-immobilized viscose microfiber membrane presented good reuse stability, and 17 batches of fermentation without activity loss were realized with the highest succinic acid yield of 83.20%. A microfiber membrane bioreactor was further constructed with the cell-immobilized viscose microfiber membrane to perform fermentation on a larger scale, and the concentration, yield and productivity of succinic acid were 73.20 g/L, 86.50% and 1.49 g/(L⋅h) using a fed-batch strategy, which were 124.30%, 127.60% and 124.2% of those obtained in the traditional fermenter. This study provided an approach for improving the practicality of biological succinic acid production.
