The plantain agro-industry generates different residues in the harvest and post-harvest stages. Therefore, the design of processes for valorization is required. The aim of this work was to design and techno-economically evaluate the processes for the production of single-cell protein, natural fibers, and biomethane from plantain residues by process simulation in the framework of the design of a future biorefinery for valorization of these residues. The processes were simulated using SuperPro Designer. The scale size was calculated at 1,267,071 tons for the processing of plantain lignocellulosic waste (pseudostems) and 3179 tons for the processing of starchy waste (rejected unripe plantain fruits). The results obtained suggest that the best alternative for the valorization of plantain residues corresponded to the production of natural fibers, with a net present value of $29,299,000. This work shows that waste from the plantain agro-industry exhibits high potential as a feedstock for the production of value-added products. In addition, the process flowsheets simulated in this work can be integrated into the basic design of a biorefinery processing plantain waste.

“…Commercially, IMOs are produced from starch taken from various sources (sweet potato, potato, tapioca, rice, and banana) 11,15−18 . Generally, the traditional method employed for the production of IMOs consisted of three steps: liquefaction, sacchari cation, and transglycosylation 6,19 . Recent studies have demonstrated the simultaneous sacchari cation and transglycosylation (SST) for the production of IMOs 16,20 .…”

In this study production of isomaltooligosaccharide from potato peels starch was carried out in three steps such as liquefaction, saccharification, and transglycosylation. Further, cloning α-transglucosidase gene from Aspergillus niger (GH31 family), transforming into E. coli BL21 (DE3), overexpressing and purifying the resulting protein for the production of α-transglucosidase. For improved reusability, the generated α-transglucosidase was then bound with magnetic nanoparticles (6 cycles). All the modifications were characterized using the following methods: Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) analysis, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction Spectroscopy (XRD), and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). Further The optimum conditions for transglycosylation were determined by RSM as follows: enzyme to substrate ratio 6.9 U/g, reaction time 9 h, temperature 45°C, and pH 5.5 with yield of 70 g/l (±2.1). MALDI-TOF-MS analysis showed DP of the IMOs in ranges of 2-10. The detailed structural characterization of isomaltooligosaccharide by GC-MS and NMR suggested the α-(1→4) and α-(1→6)-D-Glcp residues as major constituents along with minor α-(1→2) and α-(1→3)-D-Glcp residues.
