Pilot scale FB experiments. Production of succinic acid from B. succiniciproducens in fed-batch experiments on the 150 L scale with an initial working volume of 70 L. The vertical dotted line indicates FB start (In FB2 also the end of the feeding phase is indicated). Feed type: FB1, A. donax +glucose + xylose (5:1); FB2, A. donax +glucose + xylose (1.9:1); FB3, A. donax + glucose; FB4, pure glucose. Total sugars feed rate: FB1, 1.2 g/L h; FB2, 0.5 g/L h; FB3, 0.2 g/L h; FB4, 0.8 g/L h
