Effect of salinity on C1-gas fermentation by "Clostridium carboxidivorans" producing acids and alcohols
(Springer Nature, 2019-07-17)[Abstract] Clostridium carboxidivorans can produce acids and/or alcohols through syngas fermentation. In that C1-gas fermentation process, the production of acids takes place at higher pH (acetogenesis) (e.g., around 6.00), ... -
Effects of pH, CO2, and flow pattern on the autotrophic degradation of hydrogen sulfide in a biotrickling filter
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2005-11)In this study, the effects of pH, CO2, and flow pattern on the performance of a biotrickling filter (BTF) packed with plastic Pall rings and treating a H2S-polluted waste gas were investigated to establish the optimum ... -
Efficient Production of 𝑛-Caproate From Syngas by a Co-culture of Clostridium Aceticum and Clostridium Kluyveri
(Elsevier, 2021-10-25)[Abstract] In recent years, the possibility of merging technologies for waste recovery such as those based on syngas fermentation and chain elongation has been studied for the production of medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) ... -
Engineering Acetobacterium woodii for the Production of Isopropanol and Acetone From Carbon Dioxide and Hydrogen
(Wiley, 2022-01-25)[Abstract] The capability of four genetically modified Acetobacterium woodii strains for improved production of acetone from CO2 and hydrogen was tested. The acetone biosynthesis pathway was constructed by combining genes ... -
Ethanol and Acetic Acid Production from Carbon Monoxide in a Clostridium Strain in Batch and Continuous Gas-Fed Bioreactors
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2015)The effect of different sources of nitrogen as well as their concentrations on the bioconversion of carbon monoxide to metabolic products such as acetic acid and ethanol by Clostridium autoethanogenum was studied. In a ... -
Evaluation of the biomethane potential of solid fish waste
(Elsevier, 2012-07)Manufacturing processes in fish canning industries generate a considerable amount of solid waste that can be digested anaerobically. The aim of this research was to study the biochemical methane potential of different solid ... -
Experimental and neural model analysis of styrene removal from polluted air in a biofilter
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2009-07)BACKGROUND: Biofilters are efficient systems for treating malodorous emissions. The mechanism involved during pollutant transfer and subsequent biotransformation within a biofilm is a complex process. The use of artificial ... -
Factors Affecting the Optimisation and Scale-up of Lipid Accumulation in Oleaginous Yeasts for Sustainable Biofuels Production
(Elsevier, 2022-11-12)[Abstract] The recent unprecedented increase in energy demand has led to a growing interest in emerging alternatives such as the production of microbial lipids with high energy density and environmentally-friendly ... -
Formaldehyde and urea removal in a denitrifying granular sludge blanket reactor
(Elsevier, 2004-09)Simultaneous formaldehyde biodegradation, urea hydrolysis and denitrification in anoxic batch assays and in a continuous laboratory anoxic reactor were investigated. In batch assays, the initial formaldehyde biodegradation ... -
Formaldehyde biodegradation and its effect on the denitrification process
(Taylor & Francis, 2007)Simultaneous formaldehyde biodegradation and denitrification in batch assays and in a continuous lab-scale reactor were studied. In batch assays, initial biodegradation rates between 0.7 and 3.3 g CH2O g VSS-1 d-1 were ... -
Formaldehyde biodegradation and its inhibitory effect on nitrification
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2004-05)The simultaneous removal of formaldehyde and ammonium in aerobic cultures and the inhibitory effect of formaldehyde on ammonium oxidation were investigated. The influence of a co-substrate, methanol, on formaldehyde ... -
Formaldehyde biodegradation in the presence of methanol under denitrifying conditions
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2006)Simultaneous formaldehyde and methanol biodegradation and also denitrification were studied in batch assays and in a continuous laboratory-scale reactor. In batch assays, high formaldehyde concentrations (up to 1360 mg ... -
Fungal biocatalysts in the biofiltration of VOC-polluted air
