Download or read book D-Xylitol written by Silvio Silvério da Silva and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-02 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercially, D-xylitol is produced by chemical reactions that are tailored to the requirements of various sectors. However, due to the rising interest in sustainable development and ecologically benign practices, microbial transformation processes are generally preferred over the conventional chemical conversion process. The former have multiple advantages, including less chemical load on the environment, higher efficiency, and the ability to dilute multiple downstream transformation attempts while maintaining product yield and recovery. This book aims to disseminate the most current advances in the biotechnological production of D-xylitol and its applications in medical and health care. It is a unique collection of 15 book chapters split into 5 sections and written by experts in their respective fields, who present critical insights into several topics, review current research, and discuss future progress in this area. This book also provides essential information on hemicellulose hydrolysis to recover D-xylose, detoxification of hemicellulose hydrolysates, and improved fermentation methods for increased D-xylitol production. The highlights of strain improvement to increase the D-xylitol titers and downstream recovery of D-xylitol are also discussed in several sections. The current applications of D-xylitol in medical and health care have been used to justify the cost incurred for setting up the demonstration plant for D-xylitol production in the market. Apart from researchers and post-graduate students in the field of microbial biotechnology, this book will assist those in the business community who deal with the economic analysis of bio-based products and their marketing.

Book excerpt: Microbial utilization of the inexhuaustible lignocellulosic biomass for the production of industrial chemicals, liquid fuels, protein-rich feed and food, and preparation of cellulose polymers, is an attractive approach to help meet energy and food demands. Whilst biomass has served as substrate in microbial processes for the production of alchololic beverages for a long time, it is only recently that broader applications of this material have been envisaged. Hemicellulose-derived sugars have many potential uses in the production of industrial chemicals and solvents. Considerable developments have been made, not only in the improvement of yeast and recombinant bacterial strains, but also in the bioprocessing of these organisms during the last two decades. Although the volume of information available on microbial pentose utilization is increasing, the available literature is mostly scattered.A comprehensive account of recent advances in pentose based bioprocesses is provided along with suggestions for future research.An indispensable volume for graduate students of microbiology, biochemistry, biotechnology and biochemical engineering. The needs of industrial microbiologists, environmental scientists and researchers in the area of carbohydrate utilization and metabolism are also catered for. Industrial organizations involved in developing processes for ethanol and other products from non-conventional sources will also find this volume beneficial.

Download or read book Advances of Basic Science for Second Generation Bioethanol from Sugarcane written by Marcos S. Buckeridge and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-10 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the basic science recently produced in Brazil for the improvement of sugarcane as a bioenergy crop and as a raw material for 2nd generation bioethanol production. It reports achievements that have been advancing the science of cell walls, enzymes, genetics, and sustainability related to sugarcane technologies and give continuity to the research reported in the “Routes to Cellulosic Ethanol”, from Springer. The Introduction (Chapter I) explains how the National Institute of Science and Technology of Bioethanol, founded in 2008 in Brazil, became part of the main international initiatives that started to search for forms to use biomass for bioethanol production in Brazil, US and Europe. Part I reports the advances in plant cell wall composition, structure and architecture, and physical characteristics of sugarcane biomass. These discoveries are opening the way to increased efficiency of pretreatments and hydrolysis, being therefore important information for 2nd generation processes as well as for biorefinery initiatives. Part II focuses on the discovery and characterization of hydrolases from microorganisms that could be used in industrial processes. Recent advances in the search for hydrolases using metagenomics is reported. A great number of genes and enzymes from microorganisms have been discovered, affording improvement of enzyme cocktails better adapted to sugarcane biomass. Part III reports two key issues in the process of 2G ethanol, pentose fermentation and sugarcane genetics. These are the discoveries of new yeast species capable of producing ethanol more efficiently from xylose and the advances made on the sugarcane genetics, a key issue to design varieties adapted to 2G ethanol production. Part IV approaches sustainability through two chapters, one discussing the sustainability of the sugarcane agricultural and environmental system and another discussing how national and mainly international policies of Brazil regarding 2G ethanol production affected the country’s strategies to establish itself as an international player in renewable energy area.

Download or read book Dynamic Modeling of Synthetic Microbial Consortia to Optimize the Co-fermentation of Glucose and Xylose written by Timothy J. Hanly and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Second-generation biofuels have the potential to replace fossil fuels in the energy economy without negatively impacting the food supply. An effective biocatalyst must be able to convert all sugars found in lignocellulosic hydrolysates to biofuels. Few microbes exist in that have both a wide substrate range and high ethanol yields necessary for this process. Mixed culture biotechnology is a promising alternative to the use of single organisms in the production of fuels from lignocellulosic biomass. These systems mimic natural processes for the degradation of lignocellulose and exploit the native capabilities of each microbe. The segregation of metabolic pathways allows for the individual optimization of each step in the process. Preliminary work with a consortium capable of saccharification and fermentation showed promise, but the dynamics were poorly understood. Metabolic modeling is a powerful tool for understanding the interactions between microbes in mixed cultures. The development of accurate models of mixed culture metabolism will help drive the engineering of these systems for industrial applications. In this dissertation, dynamic flux balance analysis is applied to mixed culture systems by combining mathematical reconstructions of pure culture metabolism. By tuning the inoculum to sugar concentration, simulations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia coli mutants engineered to ferment a specific substrate display the potential for improved ethanol production over pure cultures. A framework for translating model predictions to experimental systems was developed for a co-culture of S. cerevisiae and xylose-specific E. coli. The consumption of sugar mixtures was optimized through this method, but the inability of the predicted gains in ethanol production to be replicated in experimental systems reveals the importance of selecting microbes with similar optimal growth conditions. The more compatible microbes S. cerevisiae and Scheffersomyces stipitis were modeled under microaerobic conditions to optimize ethanol production from a mixture of glucose and xylose. To further demonstrate the ability of these systems to ferment lignocellulosic hydrolysates, the effect of furan inhibitors on pure and co-cultures was assessed through modeling and experiment. The work presented here represents the first steps towards engineering and optimizing a microbial consortium for the production of ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass.
