Bioremediation of Lignocellulosic Waste Coupled to Production of Bioethanol
(CRC Press - Taylor & Francis Group, 2018)
The continuous increment in oil demand and the negative impact of fossil fuels on the environment makes the searching for alternative renewable fuels imperative. Currently, bioethanol, produced through the fermentation of ...
Processing of Lignocellulosic Biomass Derived Monomers using High-pressure CO2 and CO2+H2O Mixtures
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)
The degradation of monosaccharides, though often undesired in lignocellulosic pretreatment, often lead to the formation of products with a higher value than the same sugars. In this chapter, detailed information related ...
Integration of Organosolv Process for Biomass Pretreatment in a Biorefinery
(Elsevier, 2016)
Biorefinery development by the bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass has attracted much interest in recent years. The pretreatment process plays an important role in the commercialized production of several products, ...
Thermodynamic and Kinetic Study of Lignocellulosic Waste Gasification
(IntechOpen, 2018)
In this chapter, the kinetic behavior during the steam gasification of sawdust, plum, and olive pits was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis where theweight loss ismeasured with the temperature variation at different ...
Biocomposites of polyhydroxyalkanoates and lignocellulosic components: a focus on biodegradation and 3D printing
(Springer, 2021)
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are defined as natural and biodegradable biopolymers obtained by microbial synthesis. PHAs are classified as short-chain length (3-5 carbon monomers), medium-chain length (6-14 carbon monomers), ...
Lignocellulose Degradation by Termites
(Springer, 2018)
Termites (Insecta: Isoptera) are imperative terrestrial decomposers as they feed on lignocellulosic plant materials such as decaying wood, grass, animal dung or plant litter at various stages of humification. They are ...
Bulk and specialty chemicals from plan cell wall chemistry
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020)
Concerns about global warming are driving the replacement of carbon or fossil products as well as the search for sustainable alternatives for the treatment, processing, extraction, and conversion of lignocellulosic (LG) ...
Production of laccases from agricultural wastes: Strain isolation and selection, enzymatic profiling, and lab-scale production
(Springer, 2022)
Fungal laccases (copper-containing oxidases) have profound applications in bioremediation and various other industrial and biotechnological areas. This chapter outlines recent developments in laccase production technologies, ...
