Integrated Biorefinery for Sustainable Production of Fuels, Chemicals, and Polymers

Simultaneous production of lactobionic and gluconic acid in cheese whey/glucose co-fermentation by Pseudomonas taetrolens

“…Implications of mixed carbon substrate strategies to co-produce lactobionic and gluconic acid Integrated approaches using multiple carbon sources will be necessary to successfully implement novel biorefining systems into feasible production schemes at industrial scale (Yang and Yu, 2013). The co-fermentation strategies proposed in the present study suggested that synergies can be drawn by combining unrelated C-sources with cheese whey for high-yield lactobionic acid production.…”

Enrichment of anodophilic nitrogen fixing bacteria in a bioelectrochemical system

“…Clostridia are anaerobic, and a number of species of Clostridium (C. acetobutylicum, C. beijerinckii and C. butyricum) have been shown to be capable of fixing N 2 (Chen, 2005). The ability of Clostridia to ferment glucose has also been well established (Yang et al, 2013). Clostridia have also been shown to be associated with BESs.…”

On the thermal behavior of protein isolated from different legumes investigated by DSC and TGA

“…Among these, starch‐based plastics and poly(lactic acid), which is produced at present from corn, are by far the most common . However, with the increase in demand for these materials, the need to move to non‐food resources is emerging …”
