Integrated solid-state enzymatic hydrolysis and solid-state fermentation for producing sustainable polyhydroxyalkanoates from low-cost agro-industrial residues
(2021)Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are biodegradable bioplastics of interest as potential substitutes of petroleum-derived plastics that can be produced starting from lignocellulosic-derived residues. This ... -
Brewer’s spent grain as a no-cost substrate for polyhydroxyalkanoates production: assessment of pretreatment strategies and different bacterial strains
(2021)Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are polyesters of significant interest due to their biodegradability and properties similar to petroleum-derived plastics, as well as the fact that they can be produced ... -
Brewer’s spent grain biotransformation to produce lignocellulolytic enzymes and polyhydroxyalkanoates in a two-stage valorization scheme
(2020)Lignocellulolytic enzymes from low-cost sources are gaining attention as a tool to reduce production costs. Such enzymes can be obtained sustainably by diverse fungal strains via solid-state fermentation ... -
Evaluation of Pre-treatments of Brewery’s Spent Grain for Growing Bacteria in the Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoates
(2018)A suitable solution to solve the problems related to the conventional plastics is their replacement by biodegradable materials with similar properties such as polyhydroxyalkanoates ...
