Vitamin B12 and propionic acid that were simultaneous produced by Propionibacterium freudenreichii are both favorable chemicals widely used in food preservatives, medicine, and nutrition. While the carbon source and propionic acid accumulation reflected fermentation efficiency. In this study, using corn stalk as a carbon source and fed-batch fermentation process in an expanded bed adsorption bioreactor was studied for efficient and economic biosynthesis of acid vitamin B12 and propionic. With liquid hot water pretreated corn stalk hydrolysates as carbon source, 28.65 mg L⁻¹ of vitamin B12 and 17.05 g L⁻¹ of propionic acid were attained at 168 h in batch fermentation. In order to optimize the fermentation outcomes, fed-batch fermentation was performed with hydrolyzed corn stalk in expanded bed adsorption bioreactor (EBAB), giving 47.6 mg L⁻¹ vitamin B12 and 91.4 g L⁻¹ of propionic acid at 258 h, which correspond to product yields of 0.37 mg g⁻¹ and 0.75 g g⁻¹, respectively. The present study provided a promising strategy for economically sustainable production of vitamin B12 and propionic acid by P. freudenreichii fermentation using biomass cornstalk as carbon source and expanded bed adsorption bioreactor.
