Critical overview of biomass feedstocks as sustainable substrates for the production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB)
Edgard Gnansounou, Ranjna Sirohi
Polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs) are a class of biopolymers produced by different microbial species and are biodegradable and biocompatible in nature as opposed to petrochemically derived plastics. PHBs have advanced applications in medical sector, packaging in ...
ELSEVIER SCI LTD2020Highly Selective Oxidation and Depolymerization of α,γ-Diol Protected Lignin
Jeremy Luterbacher, Jean Thierry C Behaghel de Bueren, Wu Lan
Lignin oxidation offers a potential sustainable pathway to oxygenated aromatic molecules. However, current methods that use real lignin tend to have low selectivity and a yield that is limited by lignin degradation during its extraction. We developed stoic ...
2019Mineral-Associated Soil Carbon is Resistant to Drought but Sensitive to Legumes and Microbial Biomass in an Australian Grassland
Drought is predicted to increase in many areas of the world with consequences for soil carbon (C) dynamics. Plant litter, root exudates and microbial biomass can be used as C substrates to form organo-mineral complexes. Drought effects on plants and microb ...
Springer New York LLC2018Discovery, evaluation, and analysis of novel pathways for production of five methyl ethyl ketone precursors
Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Meriç Ataman, Noushin Hadadi, Milenko Tokic
The limited amount of fossil fuels shifted research in industry and academia towards sustainable production of their substitutes. One of the most prominent biofuel candidates is Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), due to its thermo-physical and transport properties ...
2017Economical Analysis of a Pressurized Fluid-Based Process Applied for Phytochemicals Recovery in a Sustainable Biorefinery Concept for Brazilian Ginseng Roots
A growing number of technologies are being developed in order to produce different high added value products, such as phytochemicals, ethanol and other chemicals from biomass, representing an important trend that needs to be evaluated. The use of pressuriz ...
Aidic Servizi Srl2016A lignocellulosic ethanol strategy via nonenzymatic sugar production: Process synthesis and analysis
The work develops a strategy for the production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass. In this strategy, the cellulose and hemicellulose fractions are simultaneously converted to sugars using a γ-valerolactone (GVL) solvent containing a dilute acid catal ...
