In this study, the impact of dissolved oxygen concentrations oscillations on Corynebacteriwn glutamicum 2262 Delta idhA growth was studied experimentally and modeled. Aiming at this, a dedicated two-compartment scale down set-up composed of two interconnected aerobic/anaerobic stirred tank bioreactors was used. The mean residence time of bacteria in each compartment was modified by adapting circulation rates and culture volumes in each bioreactor and the resulting temporal ratio of aeration was calculated. The five growth kinetics were then modeled using an original kinetic model coupling Monod growth modeling and the Residence Time Distributions. Our study showed that the microbial growth rate and macroscopic yields were clearly linked to the temporal ratio of aeration, allowing the definition of simple but robust law for process scale-up purpose. It was also revealed that the model proposed precisely agreed with the experimental growth data, whatever the fractions of aeration time imposed experimentally.
