Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal
- Solid Waste with an enzyme blend, optionally for subsequent production of biogas and/or bioethanol.
- MSW Municipal Solid Waste
- Municipal Solid Waste is commonly also known as trash, garbage, refuse or rubbish. It consists of solid waste fractions that typically comes from municipalities and includes for instance waste from homes, schools, offices, hospitals, institutions etc. MSW is produced world-wide in very large quantities; thus in EU alone 2.44 million tons were generated in 2012 (Eurostat, 2014).
- the challenges of MSW production are many and may include collection, sorting, treatment, and disposal.
- well known environmental issues such as air and groundwater pollution from landfills is related to MSW. With an increasing world population entailing an increasing waste production, proper sustainable MSW management is a global challenge.
- MSW Although being environmental troublesome MSW also represents a large unexploited resource that may be used for energy production and recycling/recovery of scarce resources. Incineration is a technology that is widely used in some European countries, for instance Denmark, Sweden and Germany. The generation of energy is highly efficient but recovery of materials is limited. Furthermore, incineration of MSW results in a large production of slag (ash) which for some types of waste fractions can have environmental negative impacts (Idris and Saed 2002, Journal of Hazardous Materials B93 201-208). Capture of gas generated from anaerobic digestion of organic material at landfills is another way of generating energy from MSW but this technology also has a very low efficiency in materials recycling.
- Tonini and Astrup (2012) evaluated the environmental sustainability - using life-cycle assessment - of four different waste refinery scenarios using this enzymatic liquefaction technology. Their assessment was based on a pilot-scale facility established at a Danish incinerator Amagerforbraending in Copenhagen, Denmark. The different scenarios were compared to incineration. The authors concluded that "enzymatic refining of the waste with utilization of the products for energy recovery can represent a valuable alternative to incineration from both an energy and environmental point of view. This is the case if the downstream energy options for exploiting the solid and liquid fractions are co-combustion and anaerobic digestion for biogas production". The authors also concluded that cost savings of the waste refinery was related to a higher recovery of metals and energy. Furthermore, "improvement in the environmental as well as energy performance of the waste refinery itself was primarily related to the optimization of energy and enzymes consumption”.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal
Solid Waste (MSW) with an enzyme blend, optionally for subsequent production of biogas and/or bioethanol.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is commonly also known as trash, garbage, refuse or rubbish. It consists of solid waste fractions that typically comes from municipalities and includes for instance waste from homes, schools, offices, hospitals, institutions etc. MSW is produced world-wide in very large quantities; thus in EU alone 2.44 million tons were generated in 2012 (Eurostat, 2014). The challenges of MSW production are many and may include collection, sorting, treatment, and disposal. Furthermore, well known environmental issues such as air and groundwater pollution from landfills is related to MSW. With an increasing world population entailing an increasing waste production, proper sustainable MSW management is a global challenge.
Although being environmental troublesome MSW also represents a large unexploited resource that may be used for energy production and recycling/recovery of scarce resources. Incineration is a technology that is widely used in some European countries, for instance Denmark, Sweden and Germany. The generation of energy is highly efficient but recovery of materials is limited. Furthermore, incineration of MSW results in a large production of slag (ash) which for some types of waste fractions can have environmental negative impacts (Idris and Saed 2002, Journal of Hazardous Materials B93 201-208). Capture of gas generated from anaerobic digestion of organic material at landfills is another way of generating energy from MSW but this technology also has a very low efficiency in materials recycling.
Integrated processes with concurrent energy production and recycling of materials are an attractive solution that has become a lot of attention lately. In such waste refineries, organic
parts of MSW represent a resource that potentially can be used for bioenergy production in the form of for instance biogas (Hartmann and Ahring, 2006, Water Science & Technology Vol 53 No 8 p. 7-22). However, sorting of MSW in organic fractions for bioenergy production and plastic/metal fractions for material recovery is not easy due to the very inhomogeneous nature of MSW. As described by Jensen et al. (2012) (WO 2013/185777) presorting of MSW is typically costly, inefficient or impractical while source-sorting requires large infrastructure and operating expenses as well as active participation from the community from which the waste is collected.
Enzymatic treatment of MSW has lately been described and seems like a very interesting and innovative approach in the MSW management (Jensen et al. 2010, Waste Management 30, p. 2497-2503; Jensen et al. 201 1 , Biochem Biotechnol 165, p. 1799-181 1 ; Tonini and Astrup 2012, Waste Management 32, p. 165-176). This technology is based on a liquefaction/solubilization step of organic degradable parts with hydrolytic enzymes and a subsequent separation of the MSW into a bioliquid and solids. The bioliquid can be used for biogas production while the solids can be further sorted and used for recycling or combusted according to the composition of the material. The technology has proven very robust at even high dry matter concentrations (35%) and has been demonstrated in pilot/demonstration facilities treating up to 1 ton of MSW/hour.
Tonini and Astrup (2012), evaluated the environmental sustainability - using life-cycle assessment - of four different waste refinery scenarios using this enzymatic liquefaction technology. Their assessment was based on a pilot-scale facility established at a Danish incinerator Amagerforbraending in Copenhagen, Denmark. The different scenarios were compared to incineration. The authors concluded that "enzymatic refining of the waste with utilization of the products for energy recovery can represent a valuable alternative to incineration from both an energy and environmental point of view. This is the case if the downstream energy options for exploiting the solid and liquid fractions are co-combustion and anaerobic digestion for biogas production". The authors also concluded that cost savings of the waste refinery was related to a higher recovery of metals and energy. Furthermore, "improvement in the environmental as well as energy performance of the waste refinery itself was primarily related to the optimization of energy and enzymes consumption".
The use of cellulases (for instance Novozymes A/S Celluclast® 1 .5 L, Novozymes A/S
CELLIC® Ctec2 and Novozymes A/S CELLIC® Ctec3) for liquefaction of MSW with subsequent separation of unsorted waste into a bioliquid - used for biogas production - and into inorganic valuable products suitable for recycling has been clearly illustrated (WO2013/185777A1 , the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference). However, with MSW being a complex substrate containing other organic components than cellulose (e.g. protein and lipids) it seems reasonable that the liquefaction process can be further improved by supplementing cellulases with other enzyme activities. Until now this theory has not been proven. An attempt was made
Jensen et al. 2010 who tested a protease (Novozymes A/S Alcalase 2.5 L) and a a-amylase (Novozymes A/S Liquozyme® SC DC) as single enzymes and in combination with a cellulase (Novozymes A/S Celluclast® 1 .5 L). "The cellulytic enzyme was the key catalyst in the liquefaction of degradable fractions both in terms of lowering viscocity and particle size distribution". No effect of the α-amylase and protease and interaction in between and with the cellulase was found. Nevertheless, it would be beneficial to provide an enzymes mix with a higher efficiency for liquefying MSW than the cellulases previously tested (Celluclast® 1.5L, CELLIC® Ctec2 and CELLIC® Ctec3). Such invention could contribute to a global change in MSW management practices and turn an environmental problem into a profitable and environmentally beneficial solution.

The waste in said process may be pretreated.
We have tested a variety of commercial enzymes on a model-substrate of MSW and used dry matter solubilisation of the substrate as a parameter for the liquefaction effect of the enzymes. The model waste simulated the organic fractions of MSW (based on a publication of the composition of Danish MSW; Riber et al. 2009, Waste Management 29, p. 1251 -1257), and consisted of a vegetable fraction (eg. Carrots, potatoes, cereals etc.) animal by-product fraction
(e.g. cheese and meats) and cellulose fraction (e.g. paper, card-board, textile).
The screening experiments were carried out in 20 gram scale at 50°C for 24 hours. Some specific enzymes improved the dry matter solubilisation of the model waste when they replaced parts of the Cellulolytic Background Composition (CBC), including some proteases, lipases and beta-glucanases. Subsequently, candidates were selected for further testing in blending experiments.
The invention provides a process for solubilizing MSW by adding one or more enzymes - including acid protease, acid lipase and acid beta-glucanase - in combination with a cellulase composition at a suitable temperature and pH to MSW.
As apparent from the findings disclosed herein, it was surprisingly found that a synergistic effect in solubilization of the MSW was obtained when adding blends of different enzymes to a cellulolytic background composition (27.1 %), compared to the individual contributions of e.g. components B.a protease, T.I pholip and A. a BG which was up to 5%, 8.5% and 8.2% respectively.

The term "Cellulolytic background compostion" or "CBC" means an enzyme composition comprising a mixture of two or more cellulolytic enzymes. In one embodiment the CBC comprises two or more cellulolytic enzymes selected from: i) an Aspergillus fumigatus cellobiohydrolase I; (ii) an Aspergillus fumigatus cellobiohydrolase II; (iii) an Aspergillus fumigatus beta-glucosidase or variant thereof; and (iv) a Penicillium sp.

endoglucanase(s), cellobiohydrolase(s), beta-glucosidase(s), or combinations thereof. The two basic approaches for measuring cellulolytic enzyme activity include: (1 ) measuring the total cellulolytic enzyme activity, and (2) measuring the individual cellulolytic enzyme activities (endoglucanases, cellobiohydrolases, and beta-glucosidases) as reviewed in Zhang et al., 2006, Biotechnology Advances 24: 452-481. Total cellulolytic enzyme activity can be measured using insoluble substrates, including Whatman N°1 filter paper, microcrystalline cellulose, bacterial cellulose, algal cellulose, cotton, pretreated lignocellulose, etc. The most common total cellulolytic activity assay is the filter paper assay using Whatman N°1 filter paper as the substrate. The assay was established by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (lUPAC) (Ghose, 1987, Pure Appl. Chem. 59: 257-68).
Cellulolytic enzyme activity can be determined by measuring the increase in production/release of sugars during hydrolysis of a cellulosic material by cellulolytic enzyme(s) under the following conditions: 1 -50 mg of cellulolytic enzyme protein/g of cellulose in pretreated corn stover (PCS) (or other pretreated cellulosic material) for 3-7 days at a suitable temperature such as 40°C-80°C, e.g., 40°C, 45°C, 50°C, 55°C, 60°C, 65°C, 70°C, 75°C, or 80°C, and a suitable pH, such as 4-9, e.g., 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, or 9.0, compared to a control hydrolysis without addition of cellulolytic enzyme protein. Typical conditions are 1 ml reactions, washed or unwashed PCS, 5% insoluble solids (dry weight), 50 mM sodium acetate pH 5, 1 mM MnS04, 50°C, 55°C, or 60°C, 72 hours, sugar analysis by AMINEX® HPX-87H column chromatography (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA, USA).

The initial, primary RNA transcript is a precursor to mRNA that is processed through a series of steps, including splicing, before appearing as mature spliced mRNA.
Coding sequence: The term "coding sequence" means a polynucleotide, which directly specifies the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide. The boundaries of the coding sequence are generally determined by an open reading frame, which begins with a start codon such as ATG, GTG, or TTG and ends with a stop codon such as TAA, TAG, or TGA. The coding sequence may be a genomic DNA, cDNA, synthetic DNA, or a combination thereof.
Control sequences: The term "control sequences" means nucleic acid sequences necessary for expression of a polynucleotide encoding a mature polypeptide of the present
invention. Each control sequence may be native (i.e., from the same gene) or foreign (i.e., from a different gene) to the polynucleotide encoding the polypeptide or native or foreign to each other. Such control sequences include, but are not limited to, a leader, polyadenylation sequence, propeptide sequence, promoter, signal peptide sequence, and transcription terminator. At a minimum, the control sequences include a promoter, and transcriptional and translational stop signals. The control sequences may be provided with linkers for the purpose of introducing specific restriction sites facilitating ligation of the control sequences with the coding region of the polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide.
Dissolved Oxygen Saturation Level: The saturation level of oxygen is determined at the standard partial pressure (0.21 atmosphere) of oxygen. The saturation level at the standard partial pressure of oxygen is dependent on the temperature and solute concentrations. In an embodiment where the temperature during hydrolysis is 50°C, the saturation level would typically be in the range of 5-5.5 mg oxygen per kg slurry, depending on the solute concentrations. Hence, a concentration of dissolved oxygen of 0.5 to 10% of the saturation level at 50°C corresponds to an amount of dissolved oxygen in a range from 0.025 ppm (0.5 x 5/100) to 0.55 ppm (10 x 5.5/100), such as, e.g., 0.05 to 0.165 ppm, and a concentration of dissolved oxygen of 10-70% of the saturation level at 50°C corresponds to an amount of dissolved oxygen in a range from 0.50 ppm (10 x 5/100) to 3.85 ppm (70 x 5.5/100), such as, e.g., 1 to 2 ppm. In an embodiment, oxygen is added in an amount in the range of 0.5 to 5 ppm, such as 0.5 to 4.5 ppm, 0.5 to 4 ppm, 0.5 to 3.5 ppm, 0.5 to 3 ppm, 0.5 to 2.5 ppm, or 0.5 to 2 ppm.

Endoglucanase activity can be determined by measuring reduction in substrate viscosity or increase in reducing ends determined by a reducing sugar assay (Zhang et al., 2006, Biotechnology Advances 24: 452- 481 ). Endoglucanase activity can also be determined using carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as substrate according to the procedure of Ghose, 1987, Pure and Appl. Chem. 59: 257-268, at pH 5, 40°C.
Expression: The term "expression" includes any step involved in the production of a polypeptide including, but not limited to, transcription, post-transcriptional modification, translation, post-translational modification, and secretion.
Expression vector: The term "expression vector" means a linear or circular DNA molecule that comprises a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide and is operably linked to control sequences that provide for its expression.
Feruloyl esterase: The term "feruloyl esterase" means a 4-hydroxy-3-
methoxycinnamoyl-sugar hydrolase (EC 3.1.1.73) that catalyzes the hydrolysis of 4-hydroxy-3- methoxycinnamoyl (feruloyl) groups from esterified sugar, which is usually arabinose in natural biomass substrates, to produce ferulate (4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamate). Feruloyl esterase (FAE) is also known as ferulic acid esterase, hydroxycinnamoyl esterase, FAE-III, cinnamoyl ester hydrolase, FAEA, cinnAE, FAE-I, or FAE-II. Feruloyl esterase activity can be determined using 0.5 mM p-nitrophenylferulate as substrate in 50 mM sodium acetate pH 5.0. One unit of feruloyl esterase equals the amount of enzyme capable of releasing 1 μηηοΐβ of p-nitrophenolate anion per minute at pH 5, 25°C.
Fragment: The term "fragment" means a polypeptide or a catalytic or binding domain having one or more (e.g., several) amino acids absent from the amino and/or carboxyl terminus of a mature polypeptide or domain; wherein the fragment has enzymatic or substrate binding activity.
Hemicellulolytic enzyme or hemicellulase: The term "hemicellulolytic enzyme" or "hemicellulase" means one or more (e.g., several) enzymes that hydrolyze a hemicellulosic material. See, for example, Shallom and Shoham, 2003, Current Opinion In Microbiology 6(3): 219-228). Hemicellulases are key components in the degradation of plant biomass. Examples of hemicellulases include, but are not limited to, an acetylmannan esterase, an acetylxylan esterase, an arabinanase, an arabinofuranosidase, a coumaric acid esterase, a feruloyl esterase, a galactosidase, a glucuronidase, a glucuronoyl esterase, a mannanase, a mannosidase, a xylanase, and a xylosidase. The substrates for these enzymes, hemicelluloses, are a heterogeneous group of branched and linear polysaccharides that are bound via hydrogen bonds to the cellulose microfibrils in the plant cell wall, crosslinking them into a robust network. Hemicelluloses are also covalently attached to lignin, forming together with cellulose a highly complex structure. The variable structure and organization of hemicelluloses require the concerted action of many enzymes for its complete degradation. The catalytic modules of hemicellulases are either glycoside hydrolases (GHs) that hydrolyze glycosidic bonds, or carbohydrate esterases (CEs), which hydrolyze ester linkages of acetate or ferulic acid side groups. These catalytic modules, based on homology of their primary sequence, can be assigned into GH and CE families. Some families, with an overall similar fold, can be further grouped into clans, marked alphabetically (e.g., GH-A). A most informative and updated classification of these and other carbohydrate active enzymes is available in the Carbohydrate- Active Enzymes (CAZy) database. Hemicellulolytic enzyme activities can be measured according to Ghose and Bisaria, 1987, Pure & Appl. Chem. 59: 1739-1752, at a suitable temperature such as 40°C-80°C, e.g., 40°C, 45°C, 50°C, 55°C, 60°C, 65°C, 70°C, 75°C, or 80°C, and a suitable pH such as 4-9, e.g., 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, or 9.0.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In some embodiments of the invention enzymatic solubilization of MSW is carried out together with natural occuring microorganisms found in the waste (concurrent enzymatic and microbial hydrolysis and fermentation) or found in recycled process wastes/solutions.
In some embodiments the microbial growth has a pH lowering effect especially when metabolites like caboxylic acids and fatty acids (e.g. acetate, propionate, butyrate, lactate) is produced.
In other embodiments of the invention it might be an advantage to inoculate MSW using different microbial species. These might include microorganisms that shows extra-cellular cellulase activities, microorganisms capable of degrading lignin, acetate-producing microorganisms, propionate-producing microorganisms, butyrate-producing organisms, ethanol- producing microorganisms and lactate producing microorganisms. Such embodiments are further described in DONG patent page 21 -25 (WO2013/185777, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference)
In practicing embodiments of the invention it can be advantageous to adjust temperature and water and dry matter content of the MSW. Enzymes normally show an optimal temperature and dry matter range. Hydrolysis of MSW is normally performed with agitation. This can be in reactors providing agitation by free fall mixing (as also described by DONG WO2006/056838 and WO201 1/032557), stirred-tank reactors or similar systems. Suitable process time, temperature and pH conditions can readily be determined by one skilled in the art and is dependent on MSW composition, dry matter concentration and enzyme.
The present invention is also directed to processes for using the compositions thereof. The present invention also relates to processes for degrading a municipal solid waste material, comprising: treating the municipal solid waste material with an enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition combined with one or more enzymes selected from (i) a protease; (ii) a lipase and (iii) a beta-glucanase; and optionally combined with one or more further enzymes selected from (iv) a pectate lyase; (v) a mannanase and (vi) an amylase. In one aspect, the processes further comprise recovering the degraded municipal solid waste material. Soluble products of degradation of the municipal solid waste material can be separated from insoluble municipal solid waste material using a method known in the art such as, for example, centrifugation, filtration, or gravity settling. In preferred embodiments solubilized compounds can be converted to Biogas (mainly comprising CH4 and C02) by anaerobic digestion. In other embodiments solubilized sugars can be converted to ethanol by fermentation.
The present invention also relates to processes of producing a fermentation product, comprising: (a) solubilizing a municipal solid waste material with an enzyme composition comprisinga cellulolytic background composition combined with one or more enzymes selected
from (i) a protease; (ii) a lipase and (iii) a beta-glucanase; and optionally combined with one or more further enzymes selected from (iv) a pectate lyase; (v) a mannanase and (vi) an amylase; (b) fermenting the solubilized municipal solid waste material with one or more (e.g., several) fermenting microorganisms to produce the fermentation product; and (c) recovering the fermentation product from the fermentation. In preferred embodiments solubilized compounds can be converted to biogas (mainly comprising CH4 and C02) by anaerobic digestion. In other embodiments solubilized sugars can be converted to ethanol by fermentation.
The present invention also relates to processes of fermenting a municipal solid waste material, comprising: fermenting the municipal solid waste material with one or more (e.g., several) fermenting microorganisms, wherein the municipal solid waste material is saccharified with an enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition combined with one or more enzymes selected from (i) a protease; (ii) a lipase and (iii) a beta-glucanase; and optionally combined with one or more further enzymes selected from (iv) a pectate lyase; (v) a mannanase and (vi) an amylase. In one aspect, the fermenting of the municipal solid waste material produces a fermentation product. In another aspect, the processes further comprise recovering the fermentation product from the fermentation. . In preferred embodiments solubilized compounds can be converted to Biogas (mainly comprising CH4 and C02) by anaerobic digestion. In other embodiments solubilized sugars can be converted to ethanol by fermentation.
The processes of the present invention can also be used to solubilize the municipal solid waste material to fermentable sugars and to convert the fermentable sugars to many useful fermentation products, e.g., fuel (ethanol, n-butanol, isobutanol, biodiesel, jet fuel) and/or platform chemicals (e.g., acids, alcohols, ketones, gases, oils, and the like). The production of a desired fermentation product from the municipal solid waste material typically involves enzymatic solubilization and fermentation.
The processing of the municipal solid waste material according to the present invention can be accomplished using methods conventional in the art. Moreover, the processes of the present invention can be implemented using any conventional biomass processing apparatus configured to operate in accordance with the invention.
Solubilization and fermentation, separate or simultaneous, include, but are not limited to, separate hydrolysis and fermentation (SHF); simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF); simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation (SSCF); hybrid hydrolysis and fermentation (HHF); separate hydrolysis and co-fermentation (SHCF); hybrid hydrolysis and co- fermentation (HHCF); and direct microbial conversion (DMC), also sometimes called consolidated bioprocessing (CBP). SHF uses separate process steps to first enzymatically hydrolyze the municipal solid waste material to fermentable sugars, e.g., glucose, cellobiose, and pentose monomers, and then ferment the fermentable sugars to ethanol. In SSF, the
enzymatic hydrolysis of the municipal solid waste material and the fermentation of sugars to ethanol are combined in one step (Philippidis, G. P., 1996, Cellulose bioconversion technology, in Handbook on Bioethanol: Production and Utilization, Wyman, C. E., ed., Taylor & Francis, Washington, DC, 179-212). SSCF involves the co-fermentation of multiple sugars (Sheehan and Himmel, 1999, Biotechnol. Prog. 15: 817-827). HHF involves a separate hydrolysis step, and in addition a simultaneous saccharification and hydrolysis step, which can be carried out in the same reactor. The steps in an HHF process can be carried out at different temperatures, i.e., high temperature enzymatic saccharification followed by SSF at a lower temperature that the fermentation strain can tolerate. DMC combines all three processes (enzyme production, hydrolysis, and fermentation) in one or more (e.g., several) steps where the same organism is used to produce the enzymes for conversion of the municipal solid waste material to fermentable sugars and to convert the fermentable sugars into a final product (Lynd et al., 2002, Microbiol. Mol. Biol. Reviews 66: 506-577). It is understood herein that any method known in the art comprising pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation, or a combination thereof, can be used in the practicing the processes of the present invention.
A conventional apparatus can include a fed-batch stirred reactor, a batch stirred reactor, a continuous flow stirred reactor with ultrafiltration, and/or a continuous plug-flow column reactor (de Castilhos Corazza et al, 2003, Acta Scientiarum. Technology 25: 33-38; Gusakov and Sinitsyn, 1985, Enz. Microb. Technol. 7: 346-352), an attrition reactor (Ryu and Lee, 1983, Biotechnol. Bioeng. 25: 53-65). Additional reactor types include fluidized bed, upflow blanket, immobilized, and extruder type reactors for hydrolysis and/or fermentation.
Pretreatment. In practicing the processes of the present invention, any pretreatment process known in the art can be used to disrupt plant cell wall components of the municipal solid waste material (Chandra et al., 2007, Adv. Biochem. Engin./Biotechnol. 108: 67-93; Galbe and Zacchi, 2007, Adv. Biochem. Engin./Biotechnol. 108: 41 -65; Hendriks and Zeeman, 2009, Bioresource Technology 100: 10-18; Mosier et al., 2005, Bioresource Technology 96: 673-686; Taherzadeh and Karimi, 2008, Int. J. Mol. Sci. 9: 1621 -1651 ; Yang and Wyman, 2008, Biofuels Bioproducts and Biorefining-Biofpr. 2: 26-40).
In a preferred embodiment of the invention MSW is subject to a mild to severe temperature pretreatment in the range 10-300°C prior to hydrolysis. Heating will normally occur together with a mixing. Heating will normally be carried out by addition of water or steam. Pretreatment might also consist of a separation (manual or automatic) of MSW in different fractions. The municipal solid waste material can also be subjected to particle size reduction, sieving, pre-soaking, wetting, washing, and/or conditioning prior to pretreatment using methods known in the art.
Conventional pretreatments include, but are not limited to, steam pretreatment (with or without explosion), dilute acid pretreatment, hot water pretreatment, alkaline pretreatment, lime
pretreatment, wet oxidation, wet explosion, ammonia fiber explosion, organosolv pretreatment, and biological pretreatment. Additional pretreatments include ammonia percolation, ultrasound, electroporation, microwave, supercritical C02, supercritical H20, ozone, ionic liquid, and gamma irradiation pretreatments.
The municipal solid waste material can be pretreated before hydrolysis and/or fermentation.
Pretreatment is preferably performed prior to the hydrolysis. Alternatively, the pretreatment can be carried out simultaneously with enzyme hydrolysis to release fermentable sugars, such as glucose, xylose, and/or cellobiose. In most cases the pretreatment step itself results in some conversion of biomass to fermentable sugars (even in absence of enzymes).
Mechanical Pretreatment or Physical Pretreatment: The term "mechanical pretreatment" or
"physical pretreatment" refers to any pretreatment that promotes size reduction of particles. For example, such pretreatment can involve various types of grinding or milling (e.g., dry milling, wet milling, or vibratory ball milling).
The municipal solid waste material can be pretreated both physically (mechanically) and chemically. Mechanical or physical pretreatment can be coupled with steaming/steam explosion, hydrothermolysis, dilute or mild acid treatment, high temperature, high pressure treatment, irradiation (e.g., microwave irradiation), or combinations thereof. In one aspect, high pressure means pressure in the range of preferably about 100 to about 400 psi, e.g., about 150 to about 250 psi. In another aspect, high temperature means temperature in the range of about 100 to about 300°C, e.g., about 140 to about 200°C. In a preferred aspect, mechanical or physical pretreatment is performed in a batch-process using a steam gun hydrolyzer system that uses high pressure and high temperature as defined above, e.g., a Sunds Hydrolyzer available from Sunds Defibrator AB, Sweden. The physical and chemical pretreatments can be carried out sequentially or simultaneously, as desired.
Accordingly, in a preferred aspect, the municipal solid waste material is subjected to physical (mechanical) or chemical pretreatment, or any combination thereof, to promote the separation and/or release of cellulose, hemicellulose, and/or lignin.
Biological Pretreatment. The term "biological pretreatment" refers to any biological pretreatment that promotes the separation and/or release of cellulose, hemicellulose, and/or lignin from the municipal solid waste material. Biological pretreatment techniques can involve applying lignin-solubilizing microorganisms and/or enzymes (see, for example, Hsu, T.-A., 1996, Pretreatment of biomass, in Handbook on Bioethanol: Production and Utilization, Wyman, C. E., ed., Taylor & Francis, Washington, DC, 179-212; Ghosh and Singh, 1993, Adv. Appl. Microbiol. 39: 295-333; McMillan, J. D., 1994, Pretreating lignocellulosic biomass: a review, in Enzymatic Conversion of Biomass for Fuels Production, Himmel, M. E., Baker, J. O., and Overend, R. P., eds., ACS Symposium Series 566, American Chemical Society, Washington, DC, chapter 15; Gong, C. S., Cao, N. J., Du, J., and Tsao, G. T., 1999, Ethanol production from renewable
resources, in Advances in Biochemical Engineering/Biotechnology, Scheper, T., ed., Springer- Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, Germany, 65: 207-241 ; Olsson and Hahn-Hagerdal, 1996, Enz. Microb. Tech. 18: 312-331 ; and Vallander and Eriksson, 1990, Adv. Biochem. Eng. /Biotech nol. 42: 63-95).
In other embodiments MSW can be pretreated both physically (mechanically) and chemically. Mechanical or physical pretreatment can be coupled with steaming/steam explosion, hydrothermolysis, dilute or mild acid treatment, high temperature, high pressure treatment, irradiation (e.g., microwave irradiation), or combinations thereof. In one aspect, high pressure means pressure in the range of preferably about 100 to about 400 psi, e.g., about 150 to about 250 psi. In another aspect, high temperature means temperature in the range of about 100 to about 300°C, e.g., about 140 to about 200°C. In a preferred aspect, mechanical or physical pretreatment is performed in a batch-process using a steam gun hydrolyzer system that uses high pressure and high temperature as defined above, e.g., a Sunds Hydrolyzer available from unds Defibrator AB, Sweden. The physical and chemical pretreatments can be carried out sequentially or simultaneously, as desired.
Hydrolysis. In the hydrolysis step, the municipal solid waste material, e.g., pretreated, is hydrolyzed to break down cellulose and/or hemicellulose and other substrates to fermentable sugars, such as glucose, cellobiose, xylose, xylulose, arabinose, mannose, galactose, and/or soluble oligosaccharides (also known as saccharification). The hydrolysis is performed enzymatically by one or more enzyme compositions in one or more stages. In the hydrolysis step, the municipal solid waste material, e.g., pretreated, is hydrolyzed to break down proteins and lipids (e.g. triglycerides) found in the waste.
The hydrolysis can be carried out as a batch process or series of batch processes. The hydrolysis can be carried out as a fed batch or continuous process, or series of fed batch or continuous processes, where the municipal solid waste material is fed gradually to, for example, a hydrolysis solution containing an enzyme composition. In an embodiment the hydrolysis a continuous hydrolysis in which a MSW material and a enzymes composition are added at different intervals throughout the hydrolysis and the hydrolysate is removed at different intervals throughout the hydrolysis. The removal of the hydrolysate may occur prior to, simultaneously with, or after the addition of the cellulosic material and the cellulolytic enzymes composition.
Enzymatic hydrolysis is preferably carried out in a suitable aqueous environment under conditions that can be readily determined by one skilled in the art. In one aspect, hydrolysis is performed under conditions suitable for the activity of the enzymes(s), i.e., optimal for the enzyme(s).
In one aspect, the saccharification is performed in the presence of dissolved oxygen at a concentration of at least 0.5% of the saturation level.
In an embodiment of the invention the dissolved oxygen concentration during
saccharification is in the range of at least 0.5% up to 30% of the saturation level, such as at least 1 % up to 25%, at least 1 % up to 20%, at least 1 % up to 15%, at least 1 % up to 10%, at least 1 % up to 5%, and at least 1 % up to 3%. In a preferred embodiment, the dissolved oxygen concentration is maintained at a concentration of at least 0.5% up to 30% of the saturation level, such as at least 1 % up to 25%, at least 1 % up to 20%, at least 1 % up to 15%, at least 1 % up to 10%, at least 1 % up to 5%, and at least 1 % up to 3% during at least 25%, such as at least 50% or at least 75% of the saccharification period. When the enzyme composition comprises an oxidoreductase the dissolved oxygen concentration may be higher up to 70% of the saturation level.
Oxygen is added to the vessel in order to achieve the desired concentration of dissolved oxygen during saccharification. Maintaining the dissolved oxygen level within a desired range can be accomplished by aeration of the vessel, tank or the like by adding compressed air through a diffuser or sparger, or by other known methods of aeration. The aeration rate can be controlled on the basis of feedback from a dissolved oxygen sensor placed in the vessel/tank, or the system can run at a constant rate without feedback control. In the case of a hydrolysis train consisting of a plurality of vessels/tanks connected in series, aeration can be implemented in one or more or all of the vessels/tanks. Oxygen aeration systems are well known in the art. According to the invention any suitable aeration system may be used. Commercial aeration systems are designed by, e.g., Chemineer, Derby, England, and build by, e.g., Paul Mueller Company, MO, USA.

The optimum amounts of the enzymes and polypeptides having enzymatic activity depend on several factors including, but not limited to, the mixture of cellulolytic enzymes and/or hemicellulolytic enzymes, the municipal solid waste material, the concentration of municipal solid waste material, the pretreatment(s) of the municipal solid waste material, temperature, time, pH, and inclusion of a fermenting organism (e.g., for Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation).
In one aspect, an effective amount of the enzyme composition to the municipal solid waste material is about 0.5 to about 50 mg, e.g., about 0.5 to about 40 mg, about 0.5 to about 25 mg, about 0.75 to about 20 mg, about 0.75 to about 15 mg, about 0.5 to about 10 mg, or about 2.5 to about 10 mg per g of the municipal solid waste material.

The term "obtained" also means herein that the enzyme may have been produced recombinantly in a host organism employing methods described herein, wherein the recombinantly produced enzyme is either native or foreign to the host organism or has a modified amino acid sequence, e.g., having one or more (e.g., several) amino acids that are deleted, inserted and/or substituted, i.e., a recombinantly produced enzyme that is a mutant and/or a fragment of a native amino acid sequence or an enzyme produced by nucleic acid shuffling processes known in the art. Encompassed within the meaning of a native enzyme are natural variants and within the meaning of a foreign enzyme are variants obtained by, e.g., site-directed mutagenesis or shuffling.
Each polypeptide may be a bacterial polypeptide. For example, each polypeptide may be a Gram-positive bacterial polypeptide having enzyme activity, or a Gram-negative bacterial polypeptide having enzyme activity.
Each polypeptide may also be a fungal polypeptide, e.g., a yeast polypeptide or a filamentous fungal polypeptide.
Chemically modified or protein engineered mutants of polypeptides may also be used.

The host can be a heterologous host (enzyme is foreign to host), but the host may under certain conditions also be a homologous host (enzyme is native to host). Monocomponent cellulolytic proteins may also be prepared by purifying such a protein from a fermentation broth.

In another aspect, the AA9 polypeptide is used in the presence of a dioxy compound, a bicylic compound, a heterocyclic compound, a nitrogen-containing compound, a quinone compound, a sulfur-containing compound, or a liquor obtained from a pretreated municipal solid waste material such as pretreated corn stover (WO 2012/021394, WO 2012/021395, WO 2012/021396, WO 2012/021399, WO 2012/021400, WO 2012/021401 , WO 2012/021408, and WO 2012/021410).
The term "liquor" means the solution phase, either aqueous, organic, or a combination thereof, arising from treatment of a lignocellulose and/or hemicellulose material in a slurry, or monosaccharides thereof, e.g., xylose, arabinose, mannose, etc., under conditions as described in WO 2012/021401 , and the soluble contents thereof. A liquor for cellulolytic enhancement of an AA9 polypeptide can be produced by treating a lignocellulose or hemicellulose material (or feedstock) by applying heat and/or pressure, optionally in the presence of a catalyst, e.g., acid, optionally in the presence of an organic solvent, and optionally in combination with physical disruption of the material, and then separating the solution from the residual solids. Such conditions determine the degree of cellulolytic enhancement obtainable through the combination of liquor and an AA9 polypeptide during hydrolysis of a cellulosic substrate by a cellulolytic enzyme preparation. The liquor can be separated from the treated material using a method standard in the art, such as filtration, sedimentation, or centrifugation.
In one aspect, an effective amount of the liquor to cellulose is about 10"6 to about 10 g per g of cellulose, e.g., about 10"6 to about 7.5 g, about 10"6 to about 5 g, about 10"6 to about 2.5 g, about 10"6 to about 1 g, about 10"5 to about 1 g, about 10"5 to about 10"1 g, about 10"4 to about 10"1 g, about 10"3 to about 10"1 g, or about 10"3 to about 10"2 g per g of cellulose.

The polypeptides having enzyme activity used in the processes of the present invention may be produced by fermentation of the above-noted microbial strains on a nutrient medium containing suitable carbon and nitrogen sources and inorganic salts, using procedures known in the art (see, e.g., Bennett, J.W. and LaSure, L. (eds.), More Gene Manipulations in Fungi, Academic Press, CA, 1991 ). Suitable media are available from commercial suppliers or may be prepared according to published compositions (e.g., in catalogues of the American Type Culture Collection). Temperature ranges and other conditions suitable for growth and enzyme production are known in the art (see, e.g., Bailey, J.E., and Ollis, D.F., Biochemical Engineering Fundamentals, McGraw-Hill Book Company, NY, 1986).
The fermentation can be any method of cultivation of a cell resulting in the expression or isolation of an enzyme or protein. Fermentation may, therefore, be understood as comprising shake flask cultivation, or small- or large-scale fermentation (including continuous, batch, fed- batch, or solid state fermentations) in laboratory or industrial fermentors performed in a suitable medium and under conditions allowing the enzyme to be expressed or isolated. The resulting enzymes produced by the methods described above may be recovered from the fermentation medium and purified by conventional procedures.
Fermentation. In preferred embodiments, some fermentation will occur concurrent with the hydrolysis of the MSW. Fermentable sugars obtained from the hydrolyzed municipal solid waste material can be fermented by one or more (e.g., several) fermenting microorganisms capable of fermenting the sugars directly or indirectly into a fermentation products such as volatile fatty acids (e.g. acetate, propionate, butyrate), lactate and alcohols.
"Fermentation" or "fermentation process" refers to any fermentation process or any process comprising a fermentation step. Fermentation processes also include fermentation processes used in the consumable alcohol industry (e.g., beer and wine), dairy industry (e.g., fermented dairy products), leather industry, and tobacco industry. The fermentation conditions depend on the desired fermentation product and fermenting organism and can easily be determined by one skilled in the art.
In the fermentation step, sugars, released from the municipal solid waste material as a result of the pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis steps, are fermented to a product, e.g., ethanol, by a fermenting organism, such as yeast. Hydrolysis and fermentation can be separate
or simultaneous.
Any suitable hydrolyzed municipal solid waste material can be used in the fermentation step in practicing the present invention. The material is generally selected based on economics, i.e., costs per equivalent sugar potential, and recalcitrance to enzymatic conversion.
The term "fermentation medium" is understood herein to refer to a medium before the fermenting microorganism(s) is(are) added, such as, a medium resulting from a saccharification process, as well as a medium used in a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation process (SSF).
"Fermenting microorganism" refers to any microorganism, including bacterial and fungal organisms, suitable for use in a desired fermentation process to produce a fermentation product. The fermenting organism can be hexose and/or pentose fermenting organisms, or a combination thereof. Both hexose and pentose fermenting organisms are well known in the art. Suitable fermenting microorganisms are able to ferment, i.e., convert, sugars, such as glucose, xylose, xylulose, arabinose, maltose, mannose, galactose, and/or oligosaccharides, directly or indirectly into the desired fermentation product. Examples of bacterial and fungal fermenting organisms producing ethanol are described by Lin et al., 2006, Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 69: 627-642.
Examples of fermenting microorganisms that can ferment hexose sugars include bacterial and fungal organisms, such as yeast. Yeast include strains of Candida, Kluyveromyces, and Saccharomyces, e.g., Candida sonorensis, Kluyveromyces marxianus, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Examples of fermenting organisms that can ferment pentose sugars in their native state include bacterial and fungal organisms, such as some yeast. Xylose fermenting yeast include strains of Candida, preferably C. sheatae or C. sonorensis; and strains of Pichia, e.g., P. stipitis, such as P. stipitis CBS 5773. Pentose fermenting yeast include strains of Pachysolen, preferably P. tannophilus. Organisms not capable of fermenting pentose sugars, such as xylose and arabinose, may be genetically modified to do so by methods known in the art.
Examples of bacteria that can efficiently ferment hexose and pentose to ethanol include, for example, Bacillus coagulans, Clostridium acetobutylicum, Clostridium thermocellum, Clostridium phytofermentans, Geobacillus sp., Thermoanaerobacter saccharolyticum, and Zymomonas mobilis (Philippidis, G. P., 1996, Cellulose bioconversion technology, in Handbook on Bioethanol: Production and Utilization, Wyman, C. E., ed., Taylor & Francis, Washington, DC, 179-212).
Other fermenting organisms include strains of Bacillus, such as Bacillus coagulans; Candida, such as C. sonorensis, C. methanosorbosa, C. diddensiae, C. parapsilosis, C. naedodendra, C. blankii, C. entomophilia, C. brassicae, C. pseudotropicalis, C. boidinii, C. utilis, and C. scehatae; Clostridium, such as C. acetobutylicum, C. thermocellum, and C. phytofermentans; E. coli, especially E. coli strains that have been genetically modified to improve

The fermenting microorganism is typically added to the degraded municipal solid waste material or hydrolysate and the fermentation is performed for about 8 to about 96 hours, e.g., about 24 to about 60 hours. The temperature is typically between about 26°C to about 60°C, e.g., about 32°C or 50°C, and about pH 3 to about pH 8, e.g., pH 4-5, 6, or 7.
In one aspect, the yeast and/or another microorganism are applied to the degraded municipal solid waste material and the fermentation is performed for about 12 to about 96 hours, such as typically 24-60 hours. In another aspect, the temperature is preferably between about 20°C to about 60°C, e.g., about 25°C to about 50°C, about 32°C to about 50°C, or about 32°C to about 50°C, and the pH is generally from about pH 3 to about pH 7, e.g., about pH 4 to about pH 7. However, some fermenting organisms, e.g., bacteria, have higher fermentation temperature optima. Yeast or another microorganism is preferably applied in amounts of approximately 105 to 1012, preferably from approximately 107 to 1010, especially approximately 2 x 108 viable cell count per ml of fermentation broth.

Kelsall, Nottingham University Press, United Kingdom 1999), which is hereby incorporated by reference.
A fermentation stimulator can be used in combination with any of the processes described herein to further improve the fermentation process, and in particular, the performance of the fermenting microorganism, such as, rate enhancement and ethanol yield. A "fermentation stimulator" refers to stimulators for growth of the fermenting microorganisms, in particular, yeast. Preferred fermentation stimulators for growth include vitamins and minerals. Examples of vitamins include multivitamins, biotin, pantothenate, nicotinic acid, meso-inositol, thiamine, pyridoxine, para-aminobenzoic acid, folic acid, riboflavin, and Vitamins A, B, C, D, and E.

In some embodiments, the composition is a cell-killed whole broth containing organic acid(s), killed cells and/or cell debris, and culture medium.
The term "fermentation broth" refers to a preparation produced by cellular fermentation that undergoes no or minimal recovery and/or purification. For example, fermentation broths are produced when microbial cultures are grown to saturation, incubated under carbon-limiting conditions to allow protein synthesis (e.g., expression of enzymes by host cells) and secretion into cell culture medium. The fermentation broth can contain unfractionated or fractionated contents of the fermentation materials derived at the end of the fermentation. Typically, the fermentation broth is unfractionated and comprises the spent culture medium and cell debris present after the microbial cells (e.g., filamentous fungal cells) are removed, e.g., by centrifugation.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
1. Substrate preparation
Unsorted MSW is basically made up of two solid fractions: 1 ) Inorganic non-degradables consisting of plastic, glass, metal etc. and 2) Degradable organics consisting of vegetable, animal waste, food waste, paper, cardboard etc. As an example the latter part typically makes up approximately 65-70% of the incoming waste in Denmark (for a detailed composition analysis see Riber et al. 2009, Waste Management 29, p. 1251 -1257).
The scope of the experiments described below was to optimize the solubilization of the degradable organic parts of MSW. Therefore, we choose to use a model waste that reflected the composition of degradable organics in MSW as described by Riber et al. 2009. The model waste consisted of 3 fractions based on fresh products supplemented with water:
- 40.1 % Vegetable origin. Mix of fresh vegetables (onions, cabbage, carrots, cucumber etc.), cereals (oatmeals, corn flakes etc.), bread, cake, flowers, boiled rice, boiled pasta fruit, ketchup etc.
1 1 .3% Animal origin. Mix of pate, sausage, hotwings, spareribs, crude meats from chicken, pork and beef etc.
- 36.2% Cellulose origin. Mix of newsprints, office paper, magazines, cardboard, juice cartons, kitchen tissue, cotton, wood, textiles etc.
Water to obtain a consistency of the model waste suitable in the assays (described later).
A total of 3 different batches were used prepared and used for the experiments. Batch 1 and 2 was prepared by REnescience (DONG A S). Batch 3 was prepared in our own laboratories. The composition of the model waste is given in the table below:
2. Assay for enzymatic solubilization of model waste in bench scale.
If not otherwise stated, experiments were carried out on a 20g scale. A standard assay for enzymatic solubilization of model waste was used as follows:
1 . 50 ml centrifuge tubes + lid were weighed.
2. Model waste was added to the tubes (total of 1 .5 g TS).
3. 50mM citric acid buffer (pH 5) (app. 14.7 ml) and enzymes was added (total weight = 20 g and 7.5% TS) and tubes was vigorously shaken.
4. Tubes were incubated on a Stuart Rotator SB3 at 12 rpm in ovens at 50°C for 24 hours.
5. After incubation, 0.4ml 10% proxel was added to kill lactic acid bacteria and other microorganisms.
6. The tubes were centrifuged 10min at 2090xg.
7. A new set of 50ml tubes were weighed but without lids, marked as supernatant.
Supernatant was poured in the tubes and the tubes+ sup was weighed.
Approx. 2x 1 ,5 ml of supernatant was removed and poured in eppendorf tubes for analysis. 50ml tubes with supernatant were weighed again.
The first tube + pellet were weighed again.
Eppendorf tubes with supernatant were stored in freezer.
TS of the supernatant and pellet were determined by drying the tubes at 50°C. The tubes was weighed and then dried at 105°C and weighed again.
Analysis: Mass balances based on weight were made before and after incubation. If more than 5% of the substrate had been lost samples were discarded. The ratio of the dry matter content in the supernatant and pellet following centrifugation was calculated for all samples. If needed, samples that had been frozen were analyzed for sugar content, acetic acid and lactate on HPLC.
EXAMPLES
Example 1.
Screening of individual enzymes and selection of enzyme candidates for blending.
Initially, a very broad range of enzymes (>50; Novozymes A S, Bagsvaerd, Denmark) were screened for investigating the potential of improving the hydrolysis of the model waste. The tested enzymes included alpha-amylases, gluco-amylase, pullulanase, proteases, lipases, cellulases, xylanases, pectinases and beta-glucanases.
The described standard assay was used. Control vials were added CBC (CELLIC® Ctec3; Novozymes A S, Bagsvaerd, Denmark) in an amount of 2.4%/TS (product to dry matter). In test vials part of CBC was replaced with other enzymes on a protein:protein basis in different ratios ranging from 1 -50%. Density of CBC and different products was taken into account. Furthermore, blanks with substrate and buffer but no enzymes were prepared. All tests were carried out in at least duplicates.
The primary success criteria for an improved hydrolysis were defined as an increase in soluble total solids (TS in supernatant). The ratio of TS-solubilisation during the screening procedure was in general around 25-28% for samples with CBC but variations were seen. The TS-solubilisation of tubes without enzymes was consistent around 10-1 1 %. Candidates were selected for further testing:
B.a protease (SEQ ID NO: 1 ): A protease derived from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens that gave up to 5% increase in TS-solubilization at 30% replacement of CBC.

Designing of optimized enzymes mix by blending of selected candidates
Statistical experiments were setup to find the optimal ratio between CBC and the selected enzymes candidates in a multicomponent enzymes blend. Based on the screening experiments we decided to use two different templates that specified the enzymes ratios to be used:
For both templates it was decided to use 0-20% B.a protease (protease) and 0-10% lipase. This was supplemented with either a) 0-30% A.a BG (beta-glucanase) +/- NZ81243 (pectate lyase) or b) 0-20% B.b Enma (endo-mannosidase) or 0-20% R.p Alam (alpha- amylase). A total of 6 blending experiments were performed.
Experiment a.1 -a.3. The initial three experiments were carried out to select the most suitable lipase when combined with 0-20% B.a protease and 0-30% A.a BG. The templates were as follows:
Blend template a.1
CBC Supplement to 100%
Blend template a.2

B.a protease 0-20%
T.I trilip 0-10%)

Statistical discovery software (Design Of Experiments, DOE) by JMP® was used to design the dosing in the experiment (see table below). As in Example 1 , the enzymes concentration in control vials (vial 17 and 39) was 2.4% CBC/TS. In test vials part of CBC was replaced with other enzymes on a protein:protein basis as stated in the table below. Each test blend was carried out in duplicates.

As shown, the best improvement over CBC in TS-solubilization was found in experiment a.1 with a 27.1 % increase with a ratio of 10:5:15:70 for B.a protease: T.I p olip:A.a SG:CBC. Interestingly, the TS-solubilization in the individual vials showed significant deviations ranging from a slight negative impact by the enzymes mix to a pronounced boost of +30.4% in tube number 23. As written in Example 1 , the individual improvements of B.a protease, T.I pholip and A.a BG was up to 5%, 8.5% and 8.2% respectively. Multiplication of the individual effects only adds up to 21 .7%. Thus, a synergistic effect was clearly obtained in experiment a.1 when mixing the enzymes.
Clear improvements in TS solubilization was also seen in experiment a.2 (up to 23.5% with a combination of B.a protease: T.I trilip:A.a SG:CBC in a ratio of 20:10:30:40) and a.3 (up to 24.5% with a combination of B.a protease:H.i trilip:A.a SG:CBC in a ratio of 10:5:15:70). It was however decided to continue with T.I pholip in the following experiments.
Experiment a.4. This experiment was used to decide whether A.a BG should be supplemented with NZ81243. The initial screening (Example 1 ) had shown a boost in TS solubilization when the two enzymes was combined.

In both blending experiments an improved performance in TS-solubilization was found when compared to CBC, but all test were inferior to the blend ratio found in experiment a.1 where B.a protease, T.I pholip, A.a BG, where mixed with CBC in a ratio of 10:5:15:70.
Based on these observations it was decided to use this enzymes combination in the further development.
Example 3.
Testing the selected enzymes blend and CELLIC® Ctec3 in free fall experiments at elevated dry matter concentration.
An experiment was carried out to test the efficiency of the selected enzymes blend at a dry matter concentration that was higher than during the screening and blending experiments. However, due to a high viscosity of model waste, mixing is not optimal in 50ml tubes when experiments are carried at dry matter concentrations above 7.5%. Instead, experiments were
performed in 100ml Kautex bottles. Model waste was mixed with water to a volume of 50ml and at TS concentration of 7.5% and 15%. CBC and the selected blend (B.a protease: T.I pholip:A.a SG:CBC in ratio of 10:5:15:70) were added in an amount of 2.4%/TS (product to dry matter CBC) . Tubes were incubated for 24 hours at 50°C in the tumbler-reactor. Results are shown in Figure 1 .
TS solubilization of original biomass in control tubes (no enzymes) were 10.9% and 3.2% at 7.5% and 15%, respectively. Addition of CBC improved TS-solubilization to 29.6% and 25.8. Supplementing CBC with the other enzymes improved solubilization further to 37.1 and 30.7%. This corresponds to a relative improvement of 25.7% (7.5% dry matter) and 18.9% (15% dry matter), when comparing the blend with CBC. The numbers obtained at 7.5% dry matter confirms the improvement seen in 20g scale (50 ml tubes), which was up to 27.3%.
Example 4. Comparable dose-response experiments with CBC and the enzymes blend.
Experiments were performed in 100ml Kautex bottles. Model waste was mixed with water to a volume at 50ml and at TS concentration of 7.5%. CBC and the selected blend (B.a protease: T.I pholip:A.a SG:CBC in ratio of 10:5:15:70) were added in amounts corresponding to 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100% and 200% of the concentration that has been used as default during the previous experiments (2.4% enzymes protein/TS). Bottles were incubated on a Stuart Rotator SB3 and placed in a 50°C oven for 24 hours.
A significant improvement in TS-solubilization was seen at all applied enzyme concentrations, when comparing the blend with CBC. The TS-solubilization at default settings (2.4% CBC/TS) was around 25%. This was obtained with only approximately 0.9% of the blend, which corresponds to a lowering in enzyme dosage of approximately 2.5 to 2.7 times (See figure 2). At the same time we found a clear increase in hydrolysis and fermentation products such as glucose, xylose, lactic acid (Figure 3, and Figure 5). This is a surprise since 15% of CBC (cellulase and xylanase activities) was replaced with the lipase and protease.
Example 5.
Omitting individual components from blend
An experiment was carried out to test the relevance of the individual enzymes in the optimized blend (B.a protease: T.I pholip:A.a SG:CBC in ratio of 10:5:15:70). The setup of control vials was as described in Example 1 (2.4% CELLIC® Ctec, 7.5% TS, 20 gram scale). In test vials the optimized blend was applied, including all enzymes. At the same time test vials were made were either B.a protease, T.I pholip or A. a BG had been excluded from the blend.
The effect on TS-solubilization is illustrated in figure 4 and clearly shows that removing any of the individual enzymes resulted in a lower TS-solubilization, when compared to vials with all enzymes. However, when only using two (2) of the selected enzymes to supplement CBC
(T.I pholip+A.a BG, B.a protease+A.a BG, B.a protease+T.I pholip) we still observed an improved TS-solubilization, when compared to vials with only CBC, even though total enzymes protein concentration had been lowered by removing individual enzymes. Although the foregoing has been described in some detail by way of illustration and example for the purposes of clarity of understanding, it is apparent to those skilled in the art that any equivalent aspect or modification, may be practiced.
