Caproic acid Chemical building block Transportation fuels Antimicrobial in animal feed
Ethanol Acetic acid Clostridium kluyveri Caproic acid
Energy crops Lignocellulosics Organic wastes Primary fermentation Bio-ethanol Ethanol Acetic acid Clostridium kluyveri Caproic acid
Syngas (H2/CO2/CO) Gas fermentation Ethanol Acetic acid Clostridium kluyveri Caproic acid

What natural and engineered niches do chain elongators inhabit? What is the impact of pH on the enriched community? What is the impact of the origin on the obtained community?

Growth pH determines product concentration but not production rate
pH 5.5 pH 7 Clostridium kluyveri-OTU present in each enrichment
Heteroscedasticity of communities at neutral and acidic pH due to different levels of enrichment
pH 5.5 pH 7 Clostridium kluyveri-OTU present in each enrichment Communities more enriched at acidic pH
Ethanol chain elongators were present in every environment, but had differential pH preferences pH determines product yield, but does not affect production rates Community structure heavily impacted by enrichment pH
