The success of oil-based plastics and the continued growth of production and utilisation can
be attributed to their cost, durability, strength to weight ratio, and eight contributions to the …

This study investigated the potential of grass biomass as a feedstock for mcl-PHA production.
Pretreatments (2% NaOH at 120 C or hot water at 120 C) of perennial ryegrass were …

This study deals with bioremediation treatments of dredged sediments contaminated by
heavy metals based on the bioaugmentation of different bacterial strains. The efficiency of the …

High Cell Density (HCD) cultivation of bacteria is essential for the majority of industrial
processes to achieve high volumetric productivity (g L −1 h −1 ) of a bioproduct of interest. This …

This study demonstrates the use of a mannitol rich ensiled grass press juice (EGPJ) as a
renewable carbon substrate for polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) production in shaking flask …

A two step biological process for the conversion of grass biomass to the biodegradable polymer
medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoate (mcl-PHA) was achieved through the use of …

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biological polyesters, viewed as a replacement for
petrochemical plastic. However, they suffer from suboptimal physical and mechanical properties. …

Polyether block amides (PEBA) composite membranes were prepared by dispersing different
two dimensional (2D) layered nanomaterials such as graphene, graphene oxide and …

Azotobacter chroococcum H23 (CECT 4435), Azotobacter vinelandii UWD, and Azotobacter
vinelandii (ATCC 12837), members of the family Pseudomonadaceae, were used to …

Lignocellulosic biomass from non-food crops is an attractive renewable source of sugars.
These sugars can be used as feedstock for the microbial production of different industrially …
