- Abstract
Biodiesel is an alternative energy that can be sourced from oleaginous microbes to form of single-cell oil. BR 2.2 isolate is classified as oleaginous organisms because of their ability to accumulate lipids for 28.44% of the total dry biomass. The speed of agitation in the lipid production process is one of the major factors for the effectiveness of the production process and reduced production costs. This study was conducted to determine the effect of the agitation speed and the incubation time on biomass production and lipid profile of BR 2.2 isolate by submerged fermentation. The stages of biomass and lipid production of BR 2.2 isolate were carried out at agitation speeds of 0 rpm, 50 rpm, 100 rpm, 150 rpm, and 200 rpm. The product was harvested in each incubation time of 0 h, 48 h, 96 h, and 144 h. The highest production yield occurred at 100 rpm with a total biomass of 2.78 g/L and a total lipid of 0.63 g/L for 144 h of incubation. Based on the research conducted, it can be concluded that the agitation speed and incubation time affect the production of total biomass and lipids in the production medium.
