Effects of anaerobic digestion on digestate nutrient availability and crop growth: A review
Tập 12 Số 3 - Trang 242-257 - 2012
Kurt Möller, Torsten Müller
Anaerobic digestion (AD) for biogas production leads to several changes in the composition of the resulting digestates compared to the original feedstock (ammonia content, pH, carbon to nitrogen ratio, etc.), which are relevant for the plant availability of macro‐ and...... hiện toàn bộ
Removal of Heavy Metals from the Environment by Biosorption
Tập 4 Số 3 - Trang 219-232 - 2004
Maria Gavrilescu
AbstractThe pollution of the environment with toxic metals is a result of many human activities, such as mining and metallurgy, and the effects of these metals on the ecosystems are of large economic and public‐healthsignificance. This paper presents the features and advantages of the unconventional removal method of heavy metals – biosorption – as a part of biorem...... hiện toàn bộ
Sulfate Reduction Based Bioprocesses for the Treatment of Acid Mine Drainage and the Recovery of Metals
Tập 7 Số 6 - Trang 541-564 - 2007
Anna H. Kaksonen, Jaakko A. Puhakka
AbstractBiological sulfate reduction is increasingly replacing chemical unit processes in mining biotechnology. Sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) can be used for treating ground‐ and surface waters contaminated with acid mine drainage (AMD), and for recovering metals from wastewater and process streams. Biologically produced H2S precipitates meta...... hiện toàn bộ
Anaerobic digestion technology in livestock manure treatment for biogas production: A review
Tập 12 Số 3 - Trang 258-269 - 2012
Ismail Muhammad Nasir, Tinia Idaty Mohd Ghazi, Rozita Omar
This article reviews the potential of anaerobic digestion (AD) for biogas production from livestock manure wastes and compares the operating and performance data for various anaerobic process configurations. It examines different kinds of manure waste treatment techniques and the influence of several parameters on biogas and met...... hiện toàn bộ
Elicitation: A biotechnological tool for enhanced production of secondary metabolites in hairy root cultures
Tập 19 Số 12 - Trang 880-895 - 2019
Mihir Halder, Sayantika Sarkar, Sumita Jha
AbstractElicitation is a possible aid to overcome various difficulties associated with the large‐scale production of most commercially important bioactive secondary metabolites from wild and cultivated plants, undifferentiated or differentiated cultures. Secondary metabolite accumulation in vitro or their efflux in culture medium has been elicited in the undifferen...... hiện toàn bộ
Microbial Processes of Heavy Metal Removal from Carbon‐Deficient Effluents in Constructed Wetlands
Tập 4 Số 5 - Trang 403-411 - 2004
Д. Б. Косолапов, Peter Kuschk, Mikhail Vainshtein, A.V. Vatsourina, Arndt Wießner, Matthias Kästner, R. Müller
AbstractThis paper reviews the main microbial processes involved when toxic metals are removed from wastewater in constructed wetlands. Microbial activity is thought to play a key role in the detoxification of these metals. The paper concentrates on the microbial processes which affect the mobility, the toxicity and bioavailability of metals, namely biosorption, me...... hiện toàn bộ
Development of Active Antimicrobial Fiber‐Based Chitosan Polysaccharide Nanostructures using Electrospinning
Tập 8 Số 3 - Trang 303-314 - 2008
Sergio Torres‐Giner, M.J. Ocio, José M. Lagarón
AbstractThe electrospinning technology opens up enormous possibilities for the implementation of bio‐based materials and food hydrocolloids in numerous applications. In this context, chitosan is a sustainable, biocompatible, biodegradable, antimicrobial and non‐toxic polysaccharide of great relevance in many fields of application. Because of its abundance in nature...... hiện toàn bộ
Production of Sophorolipids fromCandida bombicola ATCC 22214 Using Turkish Corn Oil and Honey

Screening of bacterial strains capable of converting biodiesel‐derived raw glycerol into 1,3‐propanediol, 2,3‐butanediol and ethanol
Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 57-68 - 2012
Maria Metsoviti, Spiros Paramithiotis, Eleftherios H. Drosinos, Maria Galiotou‐Panayotou, George‐John E. Nychas, An‐Ping Zeng, Séraphim Papanikolaou
AbstractThe ability of bacterial strains to assimilate glycerol derived from biodiesel facilities to produce metabolic compounds of importance for the food, textile and chemical industry, such as 1,3‐propanediol (PD), 2,3‐butanediol (BD) and ethanol (EtOH), was assessed. The screening of 84 bacterial strains was performed using glycerol as carbon source. After init...... hiện toàn bộ
Influence of carbon and nitrogen concentration on itaconic acid production by the smut fungus Ustilago maydis
Tập 14 Số 2 - Trang 129-134 - 2014
Nicole Maaßen, Monika Maasem Panakova, Nick Wierckx, Elena Geiser, Martín Zimmermann, Michael Bölker, Ulrich Klinner, Lars M. Blank
Itaconic acid is a valuable platform compound for the production of bio‐based polymers, chemicals, and fuels. Ustilago maydis is a promising host for the production of itaconic acid from biomass‐derived substrates due to its unicellular growth pattern and its potential to utilize biomass‐derived sugar monomers and polymers. The potential of U. maydis...... hiện toàn bộ
