Pathway dissection, regulation, engineering and application: lessons learned from biobutanol production by solventogenic clostridia

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
The global energy crisis and limited supply of petroleum fuels have rekindled the interest in utilizing a sustainable biomass to produce biofuel. Butanol, an advanced biofuel, is a superior renewable resource as it has a high energy content and is less ...

Environmental stress responses in Lactococcus lactis [PDF]

, 1999
Bacteria can encounter a variety of physical conditions during their life. Bacterial cells are able to survive these (often adverse) conditions by the induction of specific or general protection mechanisms. The lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis is

Pilot-scale acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation from corn stover

Green Carbon
Biobutanol is an advanced biofuel that can be produced from excess lignocellulose via acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation. Although significant technological progress has been made in this field, attempts at large-scale lignocellulosic ABE ...

Can Xylose Be Fermented to Biofuel Butanol in Continuous Long-Term Reactors: If Not, What Options Are There?

Energies, 2023
This study applied concentrated xylose (60–250 g/L) medium to produce butanol (acetone butanol ethanol, or ABE). A control batch fermentation of 61 g/L initial glucose using Clostridium beijerinckii P260 resulted in a productivity and yield of 0.33 g/L·h
