Abstract Transitioning from gasoline and petroleum‐based products to biofuels green chemicals is a paradigm shift that will lead the development of bioeconomy. In this sense, role biorefineries in countries like Brazil very important as country generates huge amount second generation (2G) biomass every year also has an attractive consumable market. However, technological innovations are still required unleash fullest potential conversion biochemicals, although successful examples already...
Bioconversion of hemicellulosic sugars into second generation (2G) ethanol plays a pivotal role in the overall success biorefineries. In this study, production performance novel xylose-fermenting yeast, Scheffersomyces shehatae UFMG-HM 52.2, was evaluated under batch fermentation conditions using sugarcane bagasse (SB) hydrolysate as carbon source. Dilute acid hydrolysis SB performed to obtain (SBHH). It concentrated, detoxified, and supplemented with nutrients different formulations prepare...
The feasibility of second-generation (2G) processes still highly depends on improvements in the hydrolysis and fermentation steps, ensuring whole use biomass sugars an integrated approach. main bottlenecks are differences between optimal conditions for both limitations high solid load (HSL) hydrolysis, hexoses pentose co-fermentation. To overcome these problems, present work explored a feeding strategy to improve HSL enzymatic hydrothermally pretreated sugarcane bagasse (PSB), at suboptimal...
This work addresses the technical–economic–environmental analysis of a 1G2G ethanol integrated process using immobilized recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae and crude sugarcane bagasse acid hydrolysate mixed with molasses. Three case studies were evaluated compared traditional 1G plants. The minimal ethanol-selling price life cycle assessment CML-IA midpoint indicators chosen as economic environmental metrics, respectively. values found for ranged from 472.92 USD/m3 to 966.53 studies....
Abstract Background The search for sustainable energy sources has become a worldwide issue, making the development of efficient biofuel production processes priority. Immobilization second-generation (2G) xylose-fermenting Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains is promising approach to achieve economic viability 2G bioethanol from undetoxified hydrolysates through operation at high cell load and mitigation inhibitor toxicity. In addition, use fixed-bed reactor can contribute establish an process...
The development of biorefineries brings the necessity an efficient consumption all sugars released from biomasses, including xylose. In addition, presence inhibitors in biomass hydrolysates is one main challenges bioprocess feasibility. this study, application Ca-alginate hybrid gels immobilization xylose-consuming recombinant yeast was explored with aim improving tolerance inhibitors. Saccharomyces cerevisiae GSE16-T18SI.1 (T18) immobilized and Ca-alginate-chitosan beads, its performance on...
Selection of the raw material and its efficient utilization are critical factors in economization second generation (2G) ethanol production. Fermentation released sugars into by a suitable producing microorganism using cheap media ingredients is cornerstone overall process. This study evaluated potential rice bran extract (RBE) as nitrogen source for production 2G Scheffersomyces (Pichia) stipitis NRRL Y-7124 sugarcane bagasse (SB) hemicellulosic hydrolysate. Dilute acid hydrolysis SB showed...
