Batch Fermentation Kinetic Model of CoQ10 Producing by Rhodobacter sphaeroides
The batch fermentation kinetics of Rhodobacter sphaeroides EIM-8 for CoQ10 production was investigated.A kinetic model for cell growth,CoQ10 formation and sugar consumption was proposed according to the Monod,Logistic and Luedeking-Piret equations.Kinetic parameters were evaluated by evolution programming and the model appears to provide a reasonable description for the fermentation process,in which the deviations between model calculating results and experimental data are within 7%.
