Composition and Nutrient Value Proposition of Brewers Spent Grain [PDF]
Abstract Brewer's spent grain (BSG), a major brewing industry byproduct, is generated in large quantities annually. This review summarizes research into the composition and preservation of BSG, different extraction techniques for BSG proteins and phenolic acids, and the bioactivities of these phenolic components ...

Cleanup of industrial effluents containing heavy metals : a new opportunity of valorising the biomass produced by brewing industry [PDF]
Heavy metal pollution is a matter of concern in industrialised countries. Contrary to organic pollutants, heavy metals are not metabolically degraded. This fact has two main consequences: its bioremediation requires another strategy and heavy metals can ...

Hydrolysis of Brewers' Spent Grain by Carbohydrate Degrading Enzymes [PDF]
In this work four commercial cellulase-hemicellulase mixtures with different activity profiles were used for solubilization of carbohydrates from brewers' spent grain (BSG). After the enzyme treatment, both the solubilised fraction and the unhydrolysed residue were characterized.

Pretreatment and Hydrolysis of Brewer's Spent Grains
AbstractBrewer's spent grains (BSG), the voluminous residue after mashing, contains on dry weight basis about 40–50 % polysaccharides. For the recovery of soluble carbohydrates from BSG different physical, thermal and enzymatic treatments were used to solubilize the polysaccharides in BSG. Heating by microwave radiation to 160 °C in the presence of 0.1

Hydrolysis and fermentation of brewer’s spent grain by Neurospora crassa
In this study, the ethanol production by the mesophilic fungus Neurospora crassa from BG was studied and optimized concerning the induction of lignocellulose degrading enzymes and the production phase as well. The production of cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic enzymes was studied under solid-state cultivation (SSC).

Brewers' spent grains: Drying kinetics and biodiesel production [PDF]
Enormous amounts of brewers' spent grains (BSGs) per year are generated to produce bear worldwide. BSGs can be used as a carbon source, biofuel to generate energy and as a source of biogas. Typically, BSGs contain >60 mass% of water and, therefore, drying kinetics is a paramount for the development of any of these valorisation processes.

Chemical, functional, and structural properties of spent coffee grounds and coffee silverskin [PDF]
Spent coffee grounds (SCG) and coffee silverskin (CS) represent a great pollution hazard if discharged into the environment. Taking this fact into account, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the chemical composition, functional properties, and ...
