This document summarizes research on converting sugar beet pulp waste into valuable products. Small-scale batch studies showed cell lysate had higher arabinofuranosidase enzyme activity than whole cells or purified enzyme. Larger-scale studies in an agitated continuous reactor achieved higher arabinose yields than batch reactions, though conditions require optimization. Future work includes testing other enzyme forms in the continuous reactor, increasing enzyme expression and concentration, and investigating enzyme retention strategies.

SIMULATION OF DEEP DRAWING DIE FOR OPTIMIZED DIE RADIUS USING FEM TECHNIQUEIjripublishers Ijri
Deep drawing process is one of the most used Metal Forming Process within the industrial field. Different analytical,
numerical, empirical and experimental methods have been developed in order to analyze it. This work reports on the
initial stages of finite element analysis (FEA) of a Deep drawing process.
The extraction of DNA involves three main steps that are cell lysis, protein separation, and DNA purification. Cell lysis is usually performed by incubation of cell in buffer containing detergent and protease. Cellular proteins are salted out or phase separated using organic solvents. Finally DNA is isolated and purified either by alcohol precipitation or adsorption with silica and elution.

Peroxidase (EC. 1.11.1.7), an oxidoreductase, has iron porphyrin ring generally and catalyzes a redox reaction between H202 as an electron acceptor and many kinds of substrates by means of oxygen liberation from HzOz (Brill, 1996).

5. Introduction
• Objective:
To investigate the continuous
breakdown of arabinans to
arabinose via
arabinofuranosidase
Run small scale and batch
study to optimise the scale-
up using the agitated cell
reactor (ACS)
• Pectin Sugars are difficult to use in fermentations
• They can, however, be used as building blocks for fine chemicals production
6. Materials and Methods
• Use pre-treated sugar beet pulp (SBP) as raw material
• Preparation of 3 enzymatic forms
whole cell cell lysate purified enzyme
• Arabinofuranosidase activity assay
– Detect nitrophenol at 405 nm
• Small-scale study on 24-well plate in a thermomixer
• Ion chromatography system (ICS)
• Effect of agitation, time and enzyme concentration on hydrolysis.
• Pump Calibration – flow rate
• Scale-up via the agitated continuous reactor (ACR)
and shake flasks.

14. Results - 24 Well Plate
• Diluting the enzyme resulted in a drop in arabinan hydrolysis
• Cell lysate performed better than whole cells
15. Comparison across scales
• ACR achieves higher arabinose concentration
• At Large batch scale (200 mL) agitation has an effect
• Whole cells perform better in continuous – possible due to shear and lysis
16. Comparison of Yields
• Whole cells has higher
yields
• Maximum yield ~ 13%
• Continuous has higher yields
• Conditions need to be optimized
17. Conclusion
Summary
• Continuous mode achieves higher yields (could be
higher)
• Ideal enzymatic form needs to be identified for ACR
• Agitation shown to be important at larger scale
Future work
Analytics are lengthy, so investigating reproducibility of
results is necessary
Higher enzyme concentration
Test other enzyme forms in ACR (purified enzyme)
Higher expression of enzyme in the cell
Investigate enzyme retention strategies
