| Popis: | Solid-state fermentation (SSF) of inedible parts of rapeseed was carried out using a white-rot fungus, Pleurotus ostreatus, to degrade lignocellulosic material for mycelial-single cell protein (SCP) production. This SSF system has the potential to be adapted to a controlled ecological life support system in space travel owing to the lack of storage space. The system for converting lignocellulosic material to SCP by P. ostreatus is simple; it can be carried out in a compact reactor. The fungal vegetative growth was better with a particle size of plant material ranging from 0.42 to 10 mm, whereas lignin degradation of the lignocellulose was the highest with particle sizes ranging from 0.42 to 0.84 mm. The addition of veratryl alcohol (3,4-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol), hydrogen peroxide, and glycerol promotes lignocellulose degradation by P. ostreatus. The enhancement of bioconversion was also observed when a gas-flow bioreactor was used to supply oxygen and to maintain the constant moisture of the reactor. With this reactor, approx 85% of the material was converted to fungal and other types of biomass after 60 d of incubation. |
