Abstract Background Yeasts exhibit promising potential for the microbial conversion of crude glycerol, owing to their versatility in delivering a wide range of value-added products, particularly lipids. Sweetwater, a methanol-free by-product of the fat splitting process, has emerged as a promising alternative feedstock for the microbial utilization of crude glycerol. To further optimize sweetwater utilization, we compared the growth and lipid production capabilities of 21 oleaginous yeast strains under different conditions with various glycerol concentrations, sweetwater types and pH. Results We found that nutrient limitation and the unique carbon composition of sweetwater boosted significant lipid accumulation in several strains, in particular Rhodosporidium toruloides NRRL Y-6987. Subsequently, to decipher the underlying mechanism, the transcriptomic changes of R. toruloides NRRL Y-6987 were further analyzed, indicating potential sugars and oligopeptides in sweetwater supporting growth and lipid accumulation as well as exogenous fatty acid uptake leading to the enhanced lipid accumulation. Conclusion Our comparative study successfully demonstrated sweetwater as a cost-effective feedstock while identifying R. toluroides NRRL Y-6987 as a highly promising microbial oil producer. Furthermore, we also suggested potential sweetwater type and strain engineering targets that could potentially enhance microbial lipid production. Graphical abstract |
