Abstract

Biocatalysts (microbe and enzymes) are sensitive to environmental factors. In high-solid and multi-phase bioprocess system, high-solid loading leads to special colony structure and “microbial ecosystems”. It is necessary to screen microorganisms and enzymes which have high osmotic tolerance and substrate-capturing ability. In this chapter, based on feature of high-solid and multi-phase process, suitable screening principles and methods of microorganisms and enzymes are discussed. Clostridium acetobutylicum with high butanol productivity is taken as an example to carry out the engineering practice of rational selection of strains and construct the domestication microbial system and enzyme catalysis systems.
