    Electrochemical membrane-assisted pH-swing extraction and back-extraction of lactic acid
    (Elsevier, 2022) Gausmann, Marcel; Bertram, Franziska; Schuur, Boelo; Jupke, Andreas; Gössi, Angelo; Riedl, Wolfgang
    Reactive extraction of carboxylic acids such as lactic acid with tertiary amines is a state-of-the-art process but suffers strongly from reduced extraction efficiency in buffered environments like fermentation broths. In order to increase the efficiency of in-situ product removal, we here propose the combination of a membrane-assisted reactive extraction with an electrochemical pH shift. Prior to extraction in the membrane module, the fermentation broth containing the lactic acid at neutral pH is treated by anodic electrolysis to reduce the pH and thereby improve the extraction yield. Additionally, the cathodic reaction is used to increase the pH of the aqueous stream used for back-extraction of the loaded organic phase. Model solutions were used to develop a mathematical model, capable of calculating the required membrane area for in-situ extractions, considering the effect of the aqueous pH on the extraction performance. Additionally, using electrochemical pH shift, we were able to concentrate lactic acid from 1 wt% in the dilute broth to 7 wt% in the back extract.

    In-situ recovery of carboxylic acids from fermentation broths through membrane supported reactive extraction using membrane modules with improved stability
    (Elsevier, 15.06.2020) Gössi, Angelo; Burgener, Florian; Kohler, David; Urso, Alessandro; Kolvenbach, Boris; Riedl, Wolfgang
    Membrane supported reactive extraction (MSE) coupled to back-extraction (MSBE) using a new type of Teflon (PTFE) capillary membrane contactor was studied for the in-situ removal of carboxylic acids from aqueous streams, e.g. fermentation broths. The use of microporous membranes as extraction interface helps avoiding emulsification problems, allows the use of extreme phase ratios, and protects microorganisms, as they are less affected by solvent toxicity during in-situ extractions. The use of PTFE capillary membranes is suitable for long-term use due its high chemical and thermal stability. A simple toxicity screening identified n-decanol with tri n-octyl amine (TOA) as a suitable solvent. MSE experiments were performed using membrane contactors (0.005 m2 to 0.15 m2), working with solvent to feed phase ratios down to 1:40 (mass based). The in-situ removal of lactic acid out of fermentation broths using lactobacillus plantarum led to a glucose conversion rate of 80 mol%. Additionally, a concentration factor up to 7.8 could be shown during back-extraction.
