초록/해제  
요약Lactate-based chain elongation (LCE) is an emerging anaerobic biotechnology that can be used to address this need by producing medium chain carboxylic acids (MCCAs) from organic waste. The dissertation presented here utilizes environmental engineering, biotechnology, and microbial ecology approaches to develop an anaerobic biotechnology that utilizes LCE driven by a mixed culture microbiome for the production and recovery of MCCAs from organic waste.Previous studies have attempted to produce MCCAs from organic waste streams such as acid whey and food waste; however, the diversity of substrates and microbial populations present in these waste streams leads to competing microbial pathways and reduced MCCA production. In this study, we characterized the impact of acid whey lactate and lactose concentrations and fermented food waste addition on MCCA production. A mixed waste stream of fermented food waste and acid whey with a lactate:lactose ratio of nine yielded a maximum caproic acid (a six-carbon monocarboxylic acid) concentration of 47.4 mM C and caproic acid carbon conversion efficiency of 39.6%. Furthermore, the relative abundance and activity of presumptive chain elongating organisms belonging to the Pseudoramibacter and Megasphaera genera remained high when both acid whey and fermented food waste were used as substrates, demonstrating the ability to maintain a robust chain elongating microbiome when using waste streams containing diverse substrates and microorganisms.An additional hurdle to the commercialization of LCE and MCCA production is the need to incorporate filtration steps after chain elongation and before downstream MCCA extraction and recovery. To address this issue, we developed an integrated anaerobic dynamic membrane bioreactor (AnDMBR) and continuous liquid-liquid extraction and in-situ membrane separation (CLEANS) unit for MCCA production and recovery. The AnDMBR demonstrated significant MCCA production with a maximum bioreactor permeate caproic acid concentration of 184.5 ± 2.5 mM C. The dynamic membrane produced a high quality permeate with an average total suspended solids (TSS) concentration of 0.6 ± 0.l g/L and average TSS removal percentage of 94.8 ± 4.3 %. The solids-liquid separation provided by the dynamic membrane allowed for continuous integration of the AnDMBR and CLEANS extraction unit without intermediate filtration steps. The CLEANS system achieved high MCCA extraction efficiency and reached a peak caproic acid recovery of 97.3 ± 2.7 %. The significant MCCA production, high quality bioreactor permeate, and high extraction unit efficiency demonstrate that an integrated AnDMBR-CLEANS system is a promising technology for MCCA production and recovery.MCCA toxicity has been well documented in pure culture and previous LCE studies and is responsible for a significant reduction in MCCA production. We also observed inhibition in our bioreactor system after a period of high MCCA production resulting in a substantial decrease in MCCA production. We explored how MCCA toxicity shaped the activity and function of key chain elongating populations (Megasphaera, Pseudoramibacter, and Caproiciproducens) in our mixed culture chain elongation AnDMBR system. We monitored the relative activity (using 16S rRNA sequence analysis) and chain elongation activity (using reverse transcription-quantitative PCR) of these chain elongating populations to characterize their response to MCCA toxicity. The results demonstrated that the Caproiciproducens population was inhibited at high MCCA concentrations but recovered and became active as MCCA concentrations declined. In contrast, Megasphaera and Pseudoramibacter populations remained active under higher MCCA levels, suggesting greater tolerance to MCCAs. This study provides new insights into how MCCA toxicity differentially impacts chain elongating populations and highlights the importance of understanding population level microbial community dynamics in chain elongation systems. With a growing interest in organic waste valorization, this dissertation fills a critical gap in our understanding of waste stream based MCCA production using LCE. Collectively, this dissertation expanded our understanding of the impacts of waste stream composition on chain elongation, developed integrated technologies for MCCA production and recovery, and provided a deeper understanding of MCCA toxicity impacts on the chain elongation microbiome.
