Recycling of lignocellulosic waste materials to produce high-value products: single cell oil and xylitol

Abstract: Application of microorganisms with ability of using environmental wastes such as lignocellulosic materials for converting them to high-value products is important from economical point of view. Valuable products such as single cell oil (SCO) have a high potential to be used in various industrial fields including biodiesel production. Other important products are polyalcohols like xylitol, which are applicable in the food and pharmaceutical industries. In this study, Rhodotorula yeast was isolated from the leav… Show more

“…Microbial conversion of the biomass to liquid biofuel has been an attractive research area in recent years . Use of lignocellulosic biomass for production of high‐value lipids and chemicals has also received considerable attention, while there has been less interest in yeast biomass as an alternative protein source. Yeast cells are able to synthesise all precursors required for macromolecular constituents such as protein and nucleic acids from sugars and essential nutrients like nitrogen, inorganic phosphate and sulfate, and additional minerals and vitamins.…”

“…These researches have laid a well foundation for recycling municipal and industrial wastes. A study from Iran has recycled lignocellulosic waste materials to produce high-value products (Enshaeieh et al 2015). A paper from Taiwan has used metal sludge mixed with mining residues to be recycled into lightweight aggregate (Huang et al 2007).…”
