• Effect of Endogenous and Exogenous Butyric Acid on Butanol Production From CO by Enriched Clostridia 

  He, Yaxue; Lens, Piet N. L.; Veiga, María Carmen; Kennes, Christian (Frontiers, 2022-02-16)

  [Abstract] Butanol is a potential renewable fuel. To increase the selectivity for butanol during CO fermentation, exogenous acetic acid and ethanol, exogenous butyric acid or endogenous butyric acid from glucose fermentation ...

• Bioproduction of Acetic Acid From Carbon Dioxide as Single Substrate and Zero Valent Iron (ZVI) by Clostridia 

  Bayar, Büşra; Veiga, María Carmen; Kennes, Christian (Elsevier, 2022-02-02)

  [Abstract] Developing innovative bioprocess strategies for carbon capture and utilization has been a major focus of research over the past decade as a way of creating a more resilient world. In this study, zero-valent iron ...

  Vallejo, Juan Andrés; Trigo Tasende, Noelia; Rumbo-Feal, Soraya; Conde Pérez, Kelly; López-Oriona, Ángel; Barbeito, Inés; Vaamonde, Manuel; Tarrío-Saavedra, Javier; Reif López, Rubén; Ladra, Susana; Rodiño-Janeiro, Bruno Kotska; Nasser-Ali, Mohammed; Cid, Ángeles; Veiga, María Carmen; Acevedo, Antón; Lamora, Carlos; Bou, Germán; Cao, Ricardo; Poza, Margarita (Elsevier, 2022)

  [Abstract] The quantification of the SARS-CoV-2 RNA load in wastewater has emerged as a useful tool to monitor COVID–19 outbreaks in the community. This approach was implemented in the metropolitan area of A Coruña (NW ...

• Influence of feedstock mix ratio on microbial dynamics during acidogenic fermentation for polyhydroxyalkanoates production 

  Lagoa Costa, Borja; Kennes, Christian; Veiga, María Carmen (Elsevier, 2021-12-01)

  [Abstract] The nature of microbial populations plays an essential role in the production of volatile fatty acids (VFA) during acidogenesis, the first stage in polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) production using mixed cultures. ...

• Polyhydroxyalkanoates Production From Syngas Fermentation Effluents: Effect of Nitrogen Availability 

  Portela-Grandío, Ana; Lagoa Costa, Borja; Kennes, Christian; Veiga, María Carmen (Elsevier, 2021-10-29)

  [Abstract] Syngas fermentation is a promising technology for bioalcohols production even though some produced volatile fatty acids (VFA) may remain unconsumed in the effluent. The present research explored the production ...
