Succinic acid is a dicarboxylic acid with chemical formula (CH2)2(CO2H)2. It is a white, odorless solid. In an aqueous solution, it ionizes to anions (that is, conjugates to a conjugate base) called succinate, which plays a role in the citric acid cycle, an energy-yielding process in all living organisms. As a radical group it is called a succinyl group. The name derives from Latin succinum, meaning amber, from which the acid may be obtained.

6). Succinic Acid Production Though Fermentation
The process of fermentation is receiving increasing attention as it can use renewable feedstocks as substrates and is seen as a more ‘green’ technology compared to chemical
production because of its renewable resource consumption and its limited impact on the environment [McKinlay et al., 2007]. The direction in which succinic acid production is heading can be summarized in a quote from McKinlay et al (2007). “Considering the current political and economical climate of crude oil-based industries, bio-based chemical production is in a position to complement and compete with existing petrochemical markets.”
Studies show that in the United States alone, 1 billion tons of biomass is available annually from the forestry and agricultural sectors without hindering food production [Perlack et al., 2005]. In a summary paper on the bio-based succinate industry in 2007, it was projected that with all the chemicals that can be synthesized with succinic acid as an intermediate, there exists a market of $15 billion US [McKinlay et al., 2007]. Estimates are that succinic acid could be produced through fermentation at $2.20 per kilogram at a production level of 5,000 tons per year, but the price would drop to $0.55 per kilogram if production levels reached 75,000 tons per year [Kang and Chang, 2005]. This upper production level may seem high, but this area of biochemical production will soon reduce the need for petrochemicals, so demand is expected to rise [Werpy and Petersen, 2004].
Succinic acid, when produced through fermentation, converts glucose to succinic acid along a portion of the reductive cycle of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle [Lee et al.,2002].Figure 2-3 depicts the reactions and enzymes in a typical fermentation process that transforms glucose to succinic acid.
First, glucose is converted to glucose-6-phosphate by hexokinase, which also adds phosphate to the molecule [McKinlay and Vieille, 2008]. Next, three separate enzymes that are
part of the Embden-Meyerhoff-Parnas glycolytic pathway lead to the production of phospho-enolpyruvate (PEP) [McKinlay and Vieille, 2008]. From PEP, the metabolic pathway can take one of two paths depending on the level of carbon dioxide available to the system [McKinlay et al.,2007]. If there is not enough CO2 present in the system, the preferred metabolic pathway creates end products of formate, ethanol and acetate, as shown on the right side of Figure 2-3. With ample supply of carbon dioxide to the system, the microorganism favours the production of succinic acid, the left half of Figure 2-3 [McKinlay et al., 2007]. Through this pathway, PEP is converted to oxaloacetate by PEP carboxykinase with the addition of CO2. This creates a 4-carbon chain, giving this series of reactions the name ‘C4 pathway’ [Lee et al., 2008]. The presence of high levels of carbon dioxide in the system strongly regulates the activity of PEPcarboxykinase [Zeikus et al., 1999]. The next reaction adds hydrogen to oxaloacetate to produce malate, which is converted to fumarate by fumarase with the removal of a water molecule [McKinlay and Vieille, 2008]. Finally, with the addition of hydrogen, succinate is formed in its ionic state, which is common as the pH range of production is above the pKA values for succinic acid [McKinlay and Vieille, 2008, Zeikus et al., 1999]. Succinic acid can be created by
protonating the succinate ion and producing the undissociated acid, which can be done in a number of different processes as discussed later. The theoretical yield of succinic acid from glucose plus carbon dioxide should be 1.17 moles per mole of glucose based on stoichiometry [McKinlay and Vieille, 2007].
This production method is not without unwanted by-products, however. In a study on the fermentation of wheat by Du et al. (2007), acetic acid and formic acid were moderate by-products produced in concentrations of 9.2g/L and 6.1g/L, respectively. These values are lower than the final concentration of succinic acid at 27.2g/L, but still make the separation process more time consuming and costly. Another major problem, shown on the metabolic pathway in Figure 2-3, is 14 that the conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate takes place with the side reaction of converting PEP to pyruvate, an irreversible step [McKinlay and Vieille, 2008].
Succinic acid is also a highly reduced product, so throughout the fermentation process from glucose, four electrons are required. Therefore, in addition to carbon dioxide gas, hydrogen has been suggested as an addition to act as a reducing agent since reductant levels can limit the reaction rate [Lee et al., 1999, McKinlay and Vieille, 2008]. In studies done by Lee et al. (1999) the addition of hydrogen often decreased fermentation time, making the process more efficient.
However other studies make no mention of the addition of hydrogen gas and obtain comparable concentrations of succinic acid [Lee et al., 1999, Liu et al., 2008b]. Additionally, other reducing agents, including formate and Natural Red dye have been used with encouraging results [McKinlay and Vieille, 2008].
For bioproduction of succinic acid to be economical, major areas of biological process improvement need to be addressed, including limiting the use of low-cost amino acids, achieving high yield and concentration and using inexpensive carbon sources [Glassner and Datta, 1989].Fermentation requires both substrate and media which contain the energy sources, nutrients and minerals needed to ensure optimal productivity rates [Lee et al., 2002]. Depending on the microorganism chosen for the fermentation process, there are many carbon sources available. In the case of succinic acid production, most of the major sugars present in biomass can be used effectively, including glucose, fructose, arabinose and xylose [McKinlay and Vieille, 2007].
While the cost of these sugars is relatively low, other carbon sources have been examined, in attempts to lower the cost of fermentation. These other sugars range from glycerol and wood hydrolysate to waste whey from milk and cheese production [Bechthold et al., 2008, Wan et al,2008]. McKinlay and Vieille (2007) suggest that a succinate-based market through fermentation can be economical provided that the price of oil remains above $40 per barrel and if corn remains above $90 per ton. McKinlay et al. (2007) suggest that productivity goals of 150g/L and 5g/L·h are ideal production targets to compete with oil-based succinic acid production. 15 As succinic acid production from fermentation reaches a point where industrial facilities are being constructed, they will be located very near to supplies of biomass as well as carbon dioxide. An ideal location would be in close proximity to an ethanol plant. These production facilities could make their process more value-added by using their waste carbon dioxide and biomass, such as cane molasses and cheese whey for succinic acid production. Since fermentation of succinic acid is considered a CO2 fixing process, this would turn a by-product of the first process into an input for the second [Urbance et al., 2004, McKinlay and Vieille, 2007]. This coproduct system would also reduce greenhouse gases produced in the creation of ethanol and the
waste plant material could also be used as a substrate for succinic acid bioproduction [Zeikus etal., 1999]. As with any bioproduction, a biocatalyst is required and there are many microorganisms in existence that can perform this transformation.
