Assessing the Synergistic Effects of Co-digestion of Maize Silage and Red Chicory Waste [PDF]

Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Quarterly, 2018
Nowadays, the anaerobic digestion of organic wastes to produce renewable energy is a reality in many countries. Many feedstocks can be processed by anaerobic digestion to produce biogas, however, anaerobic digestion of single substrates can have ...

Using Digestate Compost as a Substrate for Anaerobic Digestion [PDF]

Chemical Engineering & Technology, 2018
AbstractAnaerobic digestion (AD) of separately collected biowaste is an ecologically and economically interesting waste treatment technology due to the production of utilizable biogas and coeval reduction of waste mass fractions. The combination of AD with subsequent composting leads to a higher degree of overall biowaste carbon utilization compared to

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...
