The role of ethanol oxidation during carboxydotrophic growth of Clostridium autoethanogenum
Ethanol can be an end product of acetogenic carbon monoxide fermentation. Here we show that during carboxydotorphic growth of C. autoethanogenum, ethanol is not only an end product, but that is also acts as temporary storage for energy and reduction equivalents.

Abstract BACKGROUND Among the methods to produce hydrogen biologically, dark fermentation stands out mainly due to its low operating requirements. Organic wastes, such as brewing industry waste slurries and glycerol, can provide a cost‐effective feedstock with the additional potential of generating value‐added byproducts, while addressing a wastewater ...

Aquatic biomass as sustainable feedstock for biorefineries
Abstract The development of biorefineries is a crucial step in the circular economy framework. In biorefineries, research is intensified towards utilizing feedstocks, which do not need arable land or compete with food sources. In this scenario, emerged, submerged and free‐floating aquatic plants are garnering significant attention as potential ...

Microorganisms have a pivotal role in the production of biofuels. Here, we explain how microorganisms that consume (waste) carbon monoxide can be pushed to produce bioethanol. Abstract Carboxydotrophic metabolism is gaining interest due to its applications in gas fermentation technology, enabling the conversion of carbon monoxide to fuels and ...

SpoIIE Regulates Sporulation but Does Not Directly Affect Solventogenesis in Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 [PDF]
ABSTRACT Using gene expression reporter vectors, we examined the activity of the spoIIE promoter in wild-type and spo0A -deleted strains of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824.

Abstract BACKGROUND Food waste (FW) and waste activated sludge (WAS) are complementary substrates that improve H2 production by dark fermentation. However, there is little experience in the process performance in the long‐term operation of reactors co‐processing FW–WAS.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of activated carbon (AC) as an immobilization material in acetone‐butanol‐ethanol fermentation. The AC surface was modified with different physical (orbital shaking and refluxing) and chemical (nitric acid, sodium hydroxide and, (3‐aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES)) treatments to enhance the biobutanol ...

AbstractThe mechanism primarily implicated in the solventogenesis process in batch fermentations of Clostridium acetobutylicum is examined in considerable detail. A variety of fermentations with or without pH control in the pH range of 3.7–6 have been carried out in order to examine which of a host of suspect parameters correlate with the initiation of

High methanol‐to‐formate ratios induce butanol production in Eubacterium limosum
Eubacterium limosum ATCC8486 was grown on methanol and formate as substrates, finding evidence of native butanol production. Both methanol and formate are required for high growth rates and cell density, with formate being the preferred substrate. Butyrate is the major fermentation product, however, increasing the methanol‐to‐formate ratio favours the ...

The conjugative transposon Tn916 was used for mutagenesis of Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824. Tetracycline-resistant mutants were screened for loss of granulose synthesis and five classes of granulose mutants, that contained single transposon insertions, were identified on the basis of altered solvent production.
