Utilizing whole cell biocatalyst for biodiesel production has some advantages since it can avoid the complex procedures of isolation, purification and immobilization of extracellular lipase. However, during repeated use of Rhizopus oryzae (R. oryzae) IF04697 whole cell for biodiesel production in solvent-free system, the whole cell exhibited very poor stability; while the whole cell stability has been found to be significantly improved in tert-butanol system compared to that in solvent-free system. The difference in whole cell stability was found to be due to the difference of product accumulation between solvent-free and tert-butanol system. After 144h reaction, glycerol and methyl ester accumulated in the cell in solvent-free system came up to about 1000mg/g and 350mg/g dry biomass, respectively, while in tert-butanol system, glycerol and methyl ester accumulation was kept at a relatively low level, approximately 100mg/g and 2mg/g dry biomass, respectively. The accumulated glycerol influenced whole cell stability through mass transfer limitation only, while the accumulated methyl ester influenced whole cell stability through both mass transfer limitation and product inhibition. Further study showed that a slight loss in enzymatic activity in tert-butanol system was caused by protein leakage. (c) 2008 Published by Elsevier B.V.
