A Simulation Approach for Investigating the Effect of Valeric Acid Concentration on Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) Production in Presence of Methane

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2023
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biobased and biodegradable polymers that may be considered to replace fossil-based materials. However, their widespread deployment is slowed down because of the high production cost and their low quality.

Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) by Vibrio alginolyticus Strains Isolated from Salt Fields

Molecules, 2021
Vibrio alginolyticus is a halophilic organism usually found in marine environments. It has attracted attention as an opportunistic pathogen of aquatic animals and humans, but there are very few reports on polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production using V ...

Microbial degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) in soils [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1993
The microbial degradation of tensile test pieces made of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] or a copolymer of 90% 3-hydroxybutyric acid and 10% 3-hydroxyvaleric acid was studied in soils incubated at a constant temperature of 15, 28, or 40 degrees C for up to 200 days.

Thermal depolymerization mechanisms of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)

Progress in Natural Science: Materials International, 2016
AbstractThermal degradation processes and decomposition mechanisms of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) were investigated by using thermal gravity analysis(TGA), Gel permeation chromatography (GPC), elemental analyzer, pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (PyGC-MS) and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR).
