Sažetak
The lipase production process by Thermomyces lanuginosus solid-state cultivation on hull-less pumpkin oil pomace was studied. A reduced quadratic model of lipase production was proposed based on the optimization of five independent variables followed by a model validation with 95% of the percentage of accuracy. Maximum lipase production was obtained after 2 days of process duration with high volumetric and specific activity. The enzyme activity of 391 U gdb-1 proves that the developed process is highly efficient. Partial purification of the crude enzymatic extracts was investigated and highly concentrated lipase liquid preparation with the volumetric activity of 422 U cm-3 was achieved. The sustainability of the process was confirmed by a snapshot assessment using the green chemistry matrix of E-factor and process mass index, quoting on the mass efficiency. The new lipase process was in the range of the best white biotechnology processes, as per green chemistry metrics ranking.
