Introduction
• Objective: To investigate the continuous breakdown of arabinans to arabinose via arabinofuranosidase
Run small scale and batch study to optimise the scale-up using the agitated cell reactor (ACS)
• Pectin Sugars are difficult to use in fermentations• They can, however, be used as building blocks for fine chemicals production

Materials and Methods
• Use pre-treated sugar beet pulp (SBP) as raw material• Preparation of 3 enzymatic forms
whole cell cell lysate purified enzyme
• Arabinofuranosidase activity assay– Detect nitrophenol at 405 nm
• Small-scale study on 24-well plate in a thermomixer• Ion chromatography system (ICS)• Effect of agitation, time and enzyme concentration on hydrolysis.• Pump Calibration – flow rate • Scale-up via the agitated continuous reactor (ACR) and shake flasks.

Cell lysate – [high]
• High concentration of cell lysate (1 in 40) gives best results• Reaction plateaus after 30 minutes

Cell lysate -high
• Similar trend to previous experiment• However, Lower concentration for all of the conditions• Possibly due to the use of different Thermomixers

Condition Decided for Scale Up
• Flask– Cell lysate– 50oC– Agitation and no agitation– 30min– Enzyme concentration (low)
• ACR– Cell lysate and whole cell– 50oC– Agitation– 30min– Enzyme concentration (low)

Agitated Cell Reactor (ACR)
• Continuous stirred reactor• Metal reactor block with 10 interconnected cells
(10ml)• Block shakes – agitator present in all cells, causing
mixing the reactor

Results - 24 Well Plate
• Diluting the enzyme resulted in a drop in arabinan hydrolysis• Cell lysate performed better than whole cells
![Page 15: PPW](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042706/587c46591a28ab5a1d8b7afb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Comparison across scales
• ACR achieves higher arabinose concentration• At Large batch scale (200 mL) agitation has an effect• Whole cells perform better in continuous – possible due to shear and lysis
![Page 16: PPW](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042706/587c46591a28ab5a1d8b7afb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Comparison of Yields
• Whole cells has higher yields
• Maximum yield ~ 13%
• Continuous has higher yields • Conditions need to be optimized

Conclusion
Summary• Continuous mode achieves higher yields (could be
higher)• Ideal enzymatic form needs to be identified for ACR• Agitation shown to be important at larger scaleFuture work Analytics are lengthy, so investigating reproducibility of
results is necessary Higher enzyme concentration Test other enzyme forms in ACR (purified enzyme) Higher expression of enzyme in the cell Investigate enzyme retention strategies
