Abstract:: ... This paper presents a strategy for isolation, identification and evaluation of microalgae strains synthesizing biologically active compounds (BAC) with antimicrobial activity against food-borne and other pathogens. Water samples containing microalgae were initially submitted to the enrichment process, followed by standard procedure for obtaining pure culture. Purified DNA from the microalgae isola ...

Abstract:: ... Lignocellulose biorefinery produces fuel ethanol and lignin residue byproduct. The combustion ash of lignin residue after electricity generation contains high amount of phosphorous and potassium elements and the recycling to farmland provides a sustainable nutrients supply. This study demonstrated a maximum scenario of water- soluble phosphorous and potassium recycling through a dry biorefining pr ...

Abstract:: ... In this study, a pilot-scale biotrickling filter (BTF) was developed to remove poisonous gas contaminated by hydrogen sulfide (H2S) from a sewage lift station. The BTF provided a smooth start-up with an increase in the inlet H2S concentration and delivered a stable operation for more than 300 days. The biomass concentration and microbial community structures were analyzed to determine the biodegra ...

Abstract:: ... In a quest of alternative energy source of fossil fuels, lignocellulosic biomass is intensively studying to produce different liquid fuels and chemicals. Both fuel (bioethanol) and chemical (furfural) were produced simultaneously in this study through two different production routes, biochemical and thermochemical route. Actually, this study firstly defined production pathway in details for each p ...
