An Evaluation of Kinetic Models in the Biodesulfurization of Synthetic Oil by Rhodococcus erythropolis ATCC 4277

Abstract: Biodesulfurization is an eco-friendly technology applied in the removal of sulfur from fossil fuels. This technology is based on the use of microorganisms as biocatalysts to convert the recalcitrant sulfur compounds into others easily treatable, as sulfides. Despite it has been studied during the last decades, there are some unsolved questions, as per example the kinetic model which appropriately describes the biodesulfurization globally. In this work, different kinetic models were tested to a batch desulfuriz… Show more

“…A present limitation to a large-scale application of biodesulfurization in biorefineries is the rate at which bacterial cells can remove sulfur . Research is currently underway to improve the rate of biodesulfurization using derivatives of Rhodococcus erythropolis strain IGTS8. , In particular, one strategy that has been postulated has been the increase in the enzymatic activity of the DszD enzyme through rational protein engineering, as this enzyme supplies FMNH 2 to the two of the other enzymes in the 4S pathway (DszA and DszC).…”

“…2 Mathematical models, simulation, and optimization Limited efforts have been made to engineer BDS due to the lack of commercialization (Malani et al, 2021). Various models have been developed to understand the BDS phenomenon, which can be classified based on the pretreated fluid (single or multiple substrates) or the system or phenomena design-based models (Abin-Fuentes et al, 2014;Maass et al, 2015;Zhang et al, 2013). Metabolism-based models (Bhatia and Sharma, 2012;Calzada et al, 2012) can also be used when considering a single substrate.…”
