Abstract In spite of the limited sources fossil fuels, energy demand has been considerably increased since last century. The problems associated with global warming due to rising atmospheric greenhouse gas levels and scarcity fuels make it imperative reduce our heavy dependency on fuels. These reasons forced countries throughout world search for new fuel alternatives. Biofuel have gathered considerable attention their inherent benefits, like lower emission, renewability, sustainability....
The integrated approach in biorefinery mainly involves the utilization of various agroindustrial byproducts as raw materials for production several biobased products like biofuels, bioenergy, and other high-value chemicals. Biofuels are backbone biorefineries, however, value-added biomolecules such biopigments, biopolymers, biosurfactants, nutritional yeast, etc. have been atracting a great attention. these using traditional approaches extensively studied last few years due to their...
Agriculture plays a major role on society, especially in developing countries which rely commodity exportation markets. To maintain high crop productivity, the use of agrochemicals was once employed as main strategy, turn affected soil, water, and human health. In order to aid this issue, identifying some alternatives, such implementation biofertilizers inoculants bioinputs modern agriculture, are imperative improve ecosystem quality. Among these bioinputs, few bioproducts have shown good...
Biotechnological processes are essential for developing economies that aim to stand out in future markets. The use of bioreactors is one the most important unit operations biotechnological processes, and real-time monitoring ensure precise bioprocess control. This review presents different types bioreactors, sensors, applications other sectors. Bioreactors, controlled systems cultivating microorganisms cells, tools various fields, from scientific research industrial production. a variety...
Although Azospirillum strains used in commercial inoculant formulations presents diazotrophic activity, it has been reported that their ability to produce phytohormones plays a pivotal role plant growth-promotion, leading general recommendation of its use association with regular N-fertilizer doses. In addition, high variability the effectiveness inoculants is still under field conditions, contributing adoption inoculation technology as an additional management practice rather than...
Biosurfactants are microbial metabolites with possible applications in various industrial sectors that considered ecofriendly molecules. In recent years, some studies identified these compounds as alternatives for the elimination of vectors tropical diseases, such Aedes aegypti. The major bottlenecks biosurfactant production have been use conventional raw materials increase costs well opportunistic or pathogenic bacteria, which restrict application biomolecules. present study shows potential...
In a carbon-neutral economy, biorefineries may replace oil refineries, providing materials and molecules. One of these products are biosurfactants (BSs), which can be produced from sugarcane bagasse. Two different processes for BS production were proposed evaluated technoeconomic environmental perspective. Global sensitivity uncertainty analyses (GSA UA) assessed the most influential variables uncertainties regarding minimum selling price (MBSSP), together with several metrics. Both...
AbstractThis study characterised two bio-binders (named Bio A and B) derived from pine wood resins designed for full replacement of asphalt binder. B were compared to a petroleum-based binder (AC 30/45). Elemental analysis, Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, Thermogravimetric Linear Viscoelastic characterisation applied evaluate the materials studied. The susceptibility aging was evaluated by comparing unaged short-term aged samples three binders....
L-asparaginase is an important enzyme used in the pharmaceutical and food industry, which can be produced by different microorganisms using low cost feedstocks. In this work, sugarcane bagasse (SCB) was as support for production solid-state fermentation (SSF) A. terreus. Initially, influence of variables carbon nitrogen sources on studied following experimental design carried out Erlenmeyer flasks. Statistical analysis indicated use 0.54% starch, 0% maltose, 0.44% asparagine, 1.14% glutamine...
Biosurfactants are amphipathic molecules produced by plants, animals, and microorganisms, that present emulsifying properties may act reducing surface interfacial tensions. When compared to synthetic surfactants, these biological analogues have high biodegradability potential, be from renewable raw materials within overall biotechnological processes involving low generation of residues. The production application microbial surfactants been recently considered in several industrial sectors,...
Abstract As the cosmetic market continues to transform, innovative ingredients such as biosurfactants (BS) emerge a fundamental step towards generation of products characterized by efficacy, safety, and environmental responsibility. In alignment with global push natural, renewable, non‐toxic materials, BS stands out an interesting alternative conventional synthetic surfactants. are type green surfactants compared derived from petroleum they more biodegradable have low or no toxicity. This...
Biosurfactants are amphipathic molecules, biodegradable, with reduced toxicity. They can be synthesized by fermentative processes from oleaginous compounds and agro-industrial by-products. In this context, the present study describes production physical, chemical, structural characterization of bioemulsifier secreted yeast Scheffersomyces shehatae 16-BR6-2AI in a medium containing hemicellulosic sugarcane bagasse hydrolysate combined soybean oil. The was produced Erlenmeyer flasks isolated;...
