Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 98, Issue 8, Page 1975-1985, August 2023., 2023 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 ...

Distilling agro‐extractivism: Agave and tequila production in Mexico
Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 219-241, April 2021., 2021 Abstract This article seeks to challenge the notion that the concept of agro‐extractivism be restricted to crops destined for export with little or no processing. Based on a study of agave and tequila production in Mexico, it argues that the domestic processing of biomass does not change nor necessarily compensate for the negative social and ...

Food waste conversion to microbial polyhydroxyalkanoates
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 1338-1352, November 2017., 2017 Food wastage is a global issue and therefore harbors immense potential to create valuable bioproducts. This article's main focus is to examine the state of the art of converting food‐derived waste into carbon substrates for microbial metabolism and subsequent conversion into PHAs.

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 We report the semicontinuous, direct (anaerobic sequencing batch reactor operation) hydrogen fermentation of de‐oiled jatropha waste (DJW). The effect of hydraulic retention time (HRT) was studied and results show that the stable and peak hydrogen production rate of 1.48 L/L*d and hydrogen yield of 8.7 mL H2/g volatile solid added were attained when ...

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2023 Abstract Tequila vinasse, a by-product generated during agave fermentation, is a wastewater characterized by its dark color and composition, which includes water, alcohol, sugars, phenolic compounds, proteins, among others. Its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and pH levels classify it as hazardous to the soil, plants, and aquatic organisms ...
