As for the second method, a recycling EOPO/ammonium sulphateATPF was developed for the recovery of lipase from fermentation broth. Under the optimal conditions, the average yield and purification factor were 98.5 % and 15, respectively. It was also demonstrated that EOPO and salt was recovered up to 91 % and 75 % in the ATPF system. Direct lipase recovery using recycling an EOPO/potassium phosphate ATPS was studied as the third protocol in this thesis. The average purification factor of lipase and the yield obtained from four successive purifications were 15.3 and 99.1 %, respectively.

The choice of method in lipase recovery based on ATPS is subjected to the requirement of the purity and cost of the system. Hence, the simplicity and effectiveness of these three lipase recovery methods based on sustainable ATPS were proven in this study. Lastly, an extractive fermentation technique was employed using a thermoseparating reagent to form a two-phase system for simultaneous cell cultivation and downstream processing. A 10 % (w/w) solution of EOPO with a molecular mass of 3900 g/mol and a pH of 8.5, a 200 rpm speed, and 30 °C were selected as the optimal conditions for lipase production (55 U/ml).
