The effect of pretreatment on VFA production from tofu and tempeh wastewater through anaerobic digestion batch

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Tofu and tempeh, derived from soybeans, are widely consumed for their nutritional value and high protein content. However, the production of these foods generates nutrient‐rich wastewater that poses environmental challenges while offering opportunities for valorization.

Harnessing plant‐based platform for low‐cost cellulosic sugar recovery from bioenergy crops

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The price of pure cellulase enzyme for the recovery of fermentable cellulosic sugars is one of the major challenges that limit the commercialization of second‐generation biofuels and bio‐based products. This work shows a means to greatly reduce the cost of cellulases. The abundant capacity of plants to synthesize and hyperaccumulate transgenic

Engineering microbes for tolerance to next-generation biofuels

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2011
A major challenge when using microorganisms to produce bulk chemicals such as biofuels is that the production targets are often toxic to cells. Many biofuels are known to reduce cell viability through damage to the cell membrane and interference with ...

Mathematical modelling and simulation of biofuel cells

, 2013
Bio-fuel cells are driven by diverse and abundant bio-fuels and biological catalysts. The production/consumption cycle of bio-fuels is considered to be carbon neutral and, in principle, more sustainable than that of conventional fuel cells.

Unveiling Synergistic CuAuAg Nanoparticles on CuO for High‐Yield CO2 Electroreduction

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Pulsed laser irradiation in liquid synthesis was employed to fabricate a trimetallic catalyst composed of CuAuAg nanoparticles uniformly decorated on CuO nanosheets (CuAuAg/CuO composite). This catalyst exhibits remarkable electrocatalytic performance for the reduction of CO2 to CO, achieving a high CO yield rate of 5.1 mmol h−1 cm−2 and a Faradaic ...

Influence of Zeta Potential on the Amount of Bilirubin Oxidase Oriented for Direct Electron Transfer on Carbon Electrodes

Electrochemistry
Bilirubin oxidase (BOD) is a widely used enzyme for biofuel cell cathodes. When suitably oriented, BOD can transfer electrons directly to electrodes. The BOD variant used herein orients favorably on negatively charged surfaces.

Glucose Electrooxidation for Biofuel Cell Applications

Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Quarterly, 2009
The kinetics of glucose electrooxidation on different catalysts has been studied at physiological conditions (pH 7 and 37 0C). Electrochemically activated rough gold, rough gold modified with a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of cystamine and an enzymatic electrode based on a charge transfer complex (CTC) and glucose oxidase (GOx) have been tested.

Fungal Antimicrobial Resistance: Mechanisms, Drivers, and Global Clinical Burden

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungal antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing concern for world health caused by an increase in multidrug‐resistant infections, an increase in environmental reservoirs, and the ineffectiveness of current antifungal treatments. Fungal infections continue to be largely excluded from AMR initiatives while causing over 1.6 million deaths ...

A Glucose/O2 Biofuel Cell Based on Graphene and Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Composite Modified Electrode

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2012
We have constructed a glucose/O2 biofuel cell (BFC) with electrochemically reduced graphene oxide - multiwalled carbon nanotube (ERGO-MWCNT) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) as anode and graphene-Pt composite modified GCE as cathode.
