2,3-butanediol production through co-fermentation of glucose and xylose by Klebsiella oxytoca, Bioresour.
The main volatiles responsible for the clustering included organic acids such as propanoic, butanoic, and heptanoic acids; alcohols such as linalool, benzeneethanol,
2,3-butanediol, cyclohexanol, 2-heptanol, 2-octanol, and 3-octen-1-ol; aldehydes and ketones such as 1-phenyl ethenone, 2-undecanone, and butanal; esters like 2-pentanol acetate, hydrocarbons such as nonacosane and 1,3 cyclohexadiene, among others (Figure 2).
There was statistically significant difference between the concentrations of alcohols after extraction, including 1-propanol, isobutyl alcohol, Isoamyl alcohol, 3-hexen-1-ol,
2,3-butanediol, alphaterpineol, phenylethyl alcohol, and 3-ethyl-1-butanol, which could be related to the higher availability of relative amino acids in pulpy juice [24].
LanzaTech is initially converting carbon monoxide (CO) to
2,3-butanediol and then subsequently converts it to 1,2-butadiene using gas fermentation.
2,3-butanediol: an unusual metabolite in the serum of severely alcoholic men during acute intoxication.
Certain bacterial species ferment pyruvate to acetoin and
2,3-butanediol through 2-acetolactate.
Several companies are also working on ways to coax microbes into making large quantities of
2,3-butanediol, which can be chemically converted to butadiene, the basis of another kind of synthetic rubber.
The collaboration will initially focus on the production of butadiene in a two-step process from Lanza-Tech CO-derived
2,3-butanediol (2,3 BDO).

2,3-butanediol from fermentation broths using an ethanol/phosphate system.
