Abstract
A co-substrate model of Candida tropicalis TISTR 5306 cultivated in 10 - 100 g/L xylose and 1 - 10 g/L glucose at the ratio of 10:1 was developed based in part on modified Monod equation. The kinetic parameters include substrate limitation as well as substrate and product inhibitions with inclusion of threshold values. A general good fitting with average RSStotal, R2, and MStotal values of 162, 0.979, and 10.8, respectively, was achieved between ten simulated profiles and experimental kinetics data. The implementation of developed model on xylitol production from non-detoxified corncob hemicellulosic hydrolysate resulted in relatively good agreement with RSStotal, R2, and MStotal values of 368, 0.988, and 24.5, respectively. The developed model can be applied to predict microbial behavior in batch xylitol production system using hemicellulosic hydrolysate over a xylose range of 10 - 100 g/L and provide useful information for subsequent design of fed-batch and continuous systems to achieve the efficient sustainable resource management of this agricultural and agro-industrial waste.
