Detailed kinetic studies have been reported in the literature for several recombinant strains of Z. mobilis from NREL capable of utilizing both glucose and xylose. The initial evaluation by Zhang et al. [10] involved the batch culture growth of the strain CP4 (pZB5) on medium containing 25 g L-1 glucose and 25 gL-1 xylose. Batch and continuous culture studies on strain 39676 (pZB4L) were reported subsequently by Lawford et al. [31,33,34]. This strain was derived from the host ATCC 39676 transformed with a plasmid derived from pZB4. Final product values for 40 gL-1 glucose/40 gL-1 xylose medium included 4.04 g L-1 xylitol as well as 36.6 g L-1 ethanol [49] although it should be noted that xylitol levels with this particular recombinant strain were unusually high. Further studies reported by Lawford and Rousseau [35] focused on kinetic and energetic evaluations of strain CP4 (pZB5) in batch and fed-batch fermentations. Kinetic characterization of the chromosomally integrated xylose/arabinose strain AX101 (derived from ATCC 39676) was also reported [37,38].
To determine which of the strains was likely to be most suitable for larger scale ethanol production, a comparative evaluation in batch and continuous

culture of strains CP4(pZB5) and ZM4(pZB5) was carried out by Joachimsthal et al. [28]. From the results it was found that ZM4(pZB5) was capable of converting a mixture of 65 g L-1 glucose and 65 g L-1 xylose to more than 60 g L-1 ethanol in 48 h in batch culture with an ethanol yield of 0.46 gg-1, with this latter strain demonstrating superior specific sugar uptake and ethanol production rates. The results for ZM4(pZB5) are shown in Fig. 3 together with the values of comparative kinetic parameters in Table 2. Higher sugar concentrations (75 gL-1 each sugar) resulted in incomplete xylose utilization (80 h) presumably due to increasing ethanol inhibition of xylose assimila — tion/metabolism at ethanol concentrations of 65-70 gL-1.
The results for continuous culture with ZM4 (pZB5) and medium containing 40gL-1 glucose and 40 gL-1 xylose are shown in Fig. 4 [28]. While the concentration of glucose was close to zero at dilution rates up to D = 0.15 h-1, increasing residual xylose at dilution rates higher than 0.08 h-1 indicated that the maximum volumetric rate of xylose uptake for the culture had been exceeded. The maintenance energy coefficient (m) under these conditions was estimated by extrapolation as 1.6±0.2gg-1 h-1 (within 95% confidence limits) based on linear regression analysis of the data from Fig. 4a for the maximum specific sugar uptake rate (glucose and xylose) vs. dilution rate (D) (Fig. 4b). A “true biomass yield” of 0.044 gg-1 was determined from the inverse of the gradient of this linear plot. For similar experimental conditions, closely related values were observed by Lawford and Rousseau for strain CP4 (pZB5) [34]. However, Lawford and Rousseau noted, when ob-

served over the lower dilution rate range of D = 0.04-0.08 h-1, that both strain CP4 (pZB5) and a biomass hydrolysate adapted variant of 39676(pZB4L) exhibited values of m and “true biomass yield” that were significantly lower [35].
Results with a potentially high productivity cell recycle system using a membrane bioreactor are shown in Fig. 5 [29]. From Fig. 5(a), at sugar concentrations of 50 gL-1 glucose and 50 gL-1 xylose and D = 0.1 h-1, an ethanol productivity of 5 g L-1 h-1 was achieved with an ethanol yield based on total sugars utilized (Yp/s) = 0.50 gg-1. No decline in specific ethanol productivity was evident up to 70 h, however as shown in Fig. 5(b), a decrease in total viable cells was observed after an initial steady state (40-50 h). This indicates that for effective longer term operation, high cell concentrations should be
