Abstract

Abstract

High-value carboxylate synthesis during organic waste treatment via anaerobic fermentation technology has become more and more mature. Especially, as one of the final products, caproic acid gained much more attentions, because of its high added-value, easy separation and wide utilization. As the electron donors and acceptors were both required for caproic acid synthesis by microorganisms, in this paper, we firstly introduced the mechanism of caproic acid biosynthesis (the reverse β-oxidation pathway) with using ethanol and acetic acid as the electron donor and acceptor, respectively. Moreover, metabolic substrates and fermentation influencing factors (temperature, pH, HRT, competitive pathways, hydrogen partial pressure, substrates ratio and nitrogen sources) were summarized. Currently, caproic acid production by Clostridium kluyveri with using ethanol as the electron donor was quite mature. Further, we explored the metabolic mechanism of caproic acid synthesis with using lactic acid as electron donor, and developing the fermentation technology of caproic acid production from lactic acid were considered as a promising direction in the future.
