Integrated sustainable process for polyhydroxyalkanoates production from lignocellulosic waste by purple phototrophic bacteria

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, 2021
Purple phototrophic bacteria (PPB) showed an enormous potential for polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) production using the hydrolysate from lignocellulosic waste as feedstock. Thermal hydrolysis pretreatment was carried out at three different temperatures (120,

Biomedical Processing of Polyhydroxyalkanoates [PDF]

open access: yesBioengineering, 2019
The rapidly growing interest on polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) processing for biomedical purposes is justified by the unique combinations of characteristics of this class of polymers in terms of biocompatibility, biodegradability, processing properties, and mechanical behavior, as well as by their great potential for sustainable production.

The Potential of Polyhydroxyalkanoate Production from Food Wastes

open access: yesApplied Food Biotechnology, 2019
Background and objective: Over 1 billion tons of foods are wasted every year (not consumed by humans or animals). Most of this waste ends up in landfills. As the global population increases, mankind must look for more sustainable means of living.
