Continuous cultures of Clostridium acetobutylicum: culture stability and low-grade glycerol utilisation

Continuous cultures of two strains of Clostridium acetobutylicum were stable for over 70 d when grown on glucose/ glycerol mixtures. Butanol was the major fermentation end-product, accounting for 43 to 62% (w/w) of total products. Low-grade glycerol [65% (w/v) purity] could replace commercial glycer...
