Name
1,3-Propanediol production technology using microorganism variants
Organization name
PVA Saarland
Profile
Technical Summary
- Microorganism variants in which a gene coding for a transcription activating factor or dihydroxyacetone kinase of a glycerol oxidation pathway is deleted or inactivated in the microorganisms having the ability to produce 1,3-propanediol.
- A method of preparing 1,3-propanediol at a high yield by cultivating the microorganism variants in two steps without producing by-products.
Technical Superiority
- Increase in yield of 1,3-propanediol
- price competitiveness (please see flyer for further information)
Technical Data
Please see the flyer for technical data.
Applications
Polyester and polyether synthetic material
- high functional fibers
- plastic films
Monomers for PTT synthesis
- next generation fibers to replace PET
Waste glycerol recycling
- recycling of glycerol, which is a by-product generated in the process of producing biodiesel
- an annual output of waste glycerol in Korea is approximately 54,000 tons
