Abstract:
This study consists in optimizing the process of production of an amino acid (Llysine-HCl) by Corynebacterium glutamicum by using the software SuperPro
Désigner® version 9.0 on the basis of the production process already done en 2015
updated according to the data of the current year (2018). The main objective is to obtain
a maximum production of lysine-HCl found equal to 14870,251kg / batch with a cost of
159,6 million USD $ compared to the production of L-lysine-HCl according to the old
process which is 14573,434 Kg / batch and with a cost of 169,235 USD$. The
environmental study of the process revealed the impact of the outgoing biomass
responsible for the need for a treatment of hazardous waste on the environment, so we
realized by SuperPro designer a biomass treatment by anaerobic digestion (anaerobic
digestion) to produce biogas, of which methane is considered as an energy source that
can be used in several sectors and also reduce the severity of this biomass on the
environment.
