Taxonomic Features and Comparison of the Gut Microbiome from Two Edible Fungus-Farming Termites (Macrotermes falciger, M. natalensis) Harvested in the Vhembe District of Limpopo, South Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Termites are an important food resource for many human populations around the world, and are a good supply of nutrients. The fungus-farming ‘higher’ termite members of Macrotermitinae are also consumed by modern great apes and are implicated ...

Converting Durian Husk Into Adsorbent Beads for Methylene Blue Adsorption: Synthesis, Kinetics, Isotherms, and Reusability

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution from textile dyeing wastewater, particularly the discharge of harmful dyes like methylene blue (MB), poses a significant challenge. This study presents an innovative solution for dyeing wastewater treatment by utilizing durian husk, an agricultural waste, as an adsorbent for MB removal.

Sustainable and cost‐effective process design for energy‐self‐sufficient ethyl lactate production from sugar mill feedstocks: a techno‐economic approach

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Bio‐based ethyl lactate (EL) can replace several fossil‐derived products owing to its low toxicity, high solvent functionality, and environmental advantages. This study assesses the techno‐economic viability and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction potential of producing EL from sugarcane A‐molasses and lignocelluloses in an energy self‐sufficient ...

Mutagenesis of Trichoderma reesei endoglucanase I: impact of expression host on activity and stability at elevated temperatures. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundTrichoderma reesei is a key cellulase source for economically saccharifying cellulosic biomass for the production of biofuels. Lignocellulose hydrolysis at temperatures above the optimum temperature of T. reesei cellulases (~50°C) could provide

Process development priorities for scaling up direct microbial conversion of sugars into value‐added biochemicals

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The study identified process development priorities toward the feasible production of five value‐added biochemicals in a sugarcane biorefinery based on achievable bioconversion performances. Multiple process scenarios using A‐molasses as feedstock were simulated in Aspen Plus® via direct microbial conversions.
