Due to its unique structure, characteristics, and bio-availability, glycerol transformation into value-added chemicals has been in the spotlight in recent years. This study provides a …
Effectiveness of biochar addition to enhance thermophilic semi-continuous anaerobic digestion (AD) of food waste for methane production was investigated with a focus on …
The environmental biorefinery consists of recovering and adding value to waste, possibly through a multi-product approach. A first implementation of such a concept is the production …
In this work, we address the optimal design of an integrated microalgae-based biorefinery through the formulation of a mixed integer nonlinear programming model for the production …

The inhibition of acetate under acidic pH is an ideal way to reduce methanogenesis in mesophilic mixed culture fermentation (MCF). However, the effects of acetate concentration …
The biodiesel industry has the potential to meet the fuel requirements in the future. A few inherent lacunae of this bioprocess are the effluent, which is 10% of the actual product, and …
Hydrogenotrophic methanogens play a key role in methane (CH4) production during various wastes' anaerobic digestion (AD). The metabolism of hydrogenotrophic methanogens …
Dairy manure (DM) contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and ecosystem degradation, yet its resistance to biodegradation hinders widespread bioprocessing …
