Development and evaluation of a microwave‐assisted continuous system for olive pomace oil extraction and in‐line esterification/transesterification

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This study developed and evaluated a preliminary continuous microwave‐assisted system integrating oil extraction from olive pomace and subsequent conversion into fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) in a single processing unit. A conventional microwave oven was adapted for continuous operation by incorporating magnetron power adjustment and a ...

Combinatorial Metabolic Engineering of Alkane Biosynthesis in the Osmotolerant Yeast Debaryomyces hansenii CBS 767

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Debaryomyces hansenii is a yeast with diverse potential applications like producing oleochemicals from biomass. Yet, combinatorial metabolic engineering in D. hansenii is limited because, like many nonconventional organisms, key genomic data and genetic elements are missing. Here, we report phenotypic characterization, genomic integration loci,

Functional Diversity and Oleaginous Potential of Fungal Strains From Hawaiian Soil Ecosystems

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungi represent an important but underexplored resource for microbial lipid production, including nutritionally valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids. Hawaiian soils, shaped by volcanic parent materials and strong environmental gradients, provide a unique setting for discovering functionally diverse fungal strains with distinct metabolic traits.

Boosting Sodium Storage Activity and Kinetics of Hard Carbon by Remodeling Oxygen Chemistry

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
A surface oxygen remodeling strategy is proposed to finely furnish the pseudographitic structure of hard carbon with rich closed pores and expanded interlayer spacings. Accordingly, the sodiation reactivity and kinetics are greatly reinforced to afford an elevated capacity of 360 mAh g−1 and outstanding rate capability of 225 mAh g−1 at 2 A g−1 ...

Pretreatments to enhance the digestibility of lignocellulosic biomass

open access: yes, 2009
Lignocellulosic biomass represents a rather unused source for biogas and ethanol production. Many factors, like lignin content, crystallinity of cellulose, and particle size, limit the digestibility of the hemicellulose and cellulose present in the ...
