Efficient lipid synthesis of Chlorella pyrenoidosa promoted under heavy metals from electric arc furnace slag

Recently, Dr Yi-Tong Wang (female, Associate Professor, College of Metallurgy and Energy, North China University of Science and Technology) and Prof. Zhen Fang published an article in Journal of Cleaner Production (IF: 11.072, Q1) about using efficient lipid synthesis of Chlorella pyrenoidosa microalgae promoted under heavy metals from electric arc furnace slag.

Electric arc furnace slag is highly productive and rich in elements, which can be used as a nutrient source for microalgae. The study investigated the regulation of growth and lipid synthesis of Chlorella pyrenoidosa in electric arc furnace slag leaching solution, and citric acid electric arc furnace slag co-leaching solution, to achieve lipid production while treating metallurgical solid waste. The results showed that the highest biomass and lipid contents were 0.23 g/L and 45.89 wt%, respectively, when BG11 was added to the electric arc furnace slag leaching solution. The highest biomass and lipid contents were 0.25 g/L and 33.37 wt%, respectively, for the addition of citric acid electric arc furnace slag leaching solution at BG11. Various metal ions in the electric arc furnace slag leaching solution increased the biomass lipid content by modulating acetyl-CoA carboxylase, malic enzyme, and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activities. This study helps to solve the problem of the high cost of microalgae culture and metallurgical solid waste treatment while generating lipids and provides a new green pathway for the commercialization of microalgae.

High lipid content (45.89 wt%) was obtained by adding EAFS leaching solution into BG11. High biomass content (0.44 g/L) was achieved by citric acid assisting EAFS leaching. 在BG11中加入EAFS浸出液,获得了较高的脂质含量(45.89 wt%)。柠檬酸辅助EAFS浸出可获得较高的生物质含量(0.44 g/L)。


电炉渣重金属胁迫促进Chlorella pyrenoidosa微藻高效合成油脂

最近,青年女科学家王一同博士(华北理工大学冶金与能源学院副教授)和方真教授在国际学术期刊Journal of Cleaner Production(IF: 11.072,Q1)发表题为“电炉渣重金属胁迫促进Chlorella pyrenoidosa高效合成脂质”的研究性论文。

电炉渣产量高,元素丰富,可作为微藻的营养来源。研究了Chlorella pyrenoidosa在电炉渣浸出液和柠檬酸电炉渣共浸出液中的生长和脂质合成的调节机制,实现冶金固体废物资源化同时获得高附加值脂质。结果表明,当在BG11添加电炉渣浸出液中时,生物量和脂质的最高含量分别为0.23g/L和45.89wt%。在BG11添加柠檬酸电炉渣联合浸出液时,生物量和脂质含量分别为0.25g/L和33.37wt%。电炉渣浸出液中的各种金属离子通过调节乙酰辅酶A羧化酶、苹果酸酶和磷酸烯醇丙酮酸羧化酶的活性来增加脂质含量。本研究有助于解决微藻培养和冶金固废处理成本高的问题,为微藻商业化提供新思路。详情可见:
