Corn syrup - a commercial product derived from saccharification of corn starch - was used to produce acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) by Clostridium spp. Screening of commercial Clostridium spp., substrate inhibition tests and fedbatch experiments were carried out to improve ABE production using corn syrup as only carbon source. The screening tests carried out in batch mode using a production media containing 50 g/L corn syrup revealed that C. saccharobutylicum was the best performer in terms of total solvent concentration (12.46 g/L), yield (0.30 g/g) and productivity (0.19 g/L/h) and it was selected for successive experiments. Concentration of corn syrup higher than 50 g/L resulted in no solvents production. Fed-batch fermentation improved ABE production with respect to batch fermentation: the butanol and solvent concentration increased up to 8.70 and 16.68 g/L, respectively. The study demonstrated the feasibility of producing solvents via ABE fermentation using corn syrup as a model substrate of concentrated sugar mixtures.
