Succinic acid is a useful chemical in many field of industry : making foods, pharmaceuticals and
cosmetics [2, 3]. It is a valuable 4-carbon intermediate and is useful for the production of 1,4-butanediol, tetrahydrofuran, and gammabutyrolactone [1]. Recently, fermentation of microbe for
production of succinic acid has become of interest [4]. At previous study, lab scale batch
fermentation of Mannheimia succiniciproducens LPK7 was performed at optimal conditions.
In order to test the industrial applications, bench scale batch fermentation was carried out at
optimal conditions in lab scale fermentation. After extensive fermentation experiments, final
succinic acid concentration and yield were obtained as 14.5 g/L and 0.61 mol/mol. This result shows a similar amount of succinic acid concentration and yield with the lab scale batch fermentation experiment. With these optimal conditions it will be possible to apply succinic acid production industrially.
