Production of biofuels and biochemicals: in need of an ORACLE.
The engineering of cells for the production of fuels and chemicals involves simultaneous optimization of multiple objectives, such as specific productivity, extended substrate range and improved tolerance - all under a great degree of uncertainty. The achievement of these objectives under physiological and process constraints will be impossible without the use of mathematical modeling. However,...
متن کاملManipulating microRNAs for improved biomass and biofuels from plant feedstocks.
Petroleum-based fuels are nonrenewable and unsustainable. Renewable sources of energy, such as lignocellulosic biofuels and plant metabolite-based drop-in fuels, can offset fossil fuel use and reverse environmental degradation through carbon sequestration. Despite these benefits, the lignocellulosic biofuels industry still faces many challenges, including the availability of economically viable...
متن کاملHarnessing plant biomass for biofuels and biomaterials.
Modern societies have relied for more than a century on fossil carbon sources for the production of fuels or chemicals ranging from plastic polymers to drugs to food additives. The consequences of this utilization of fossil carbon-derived fuels – the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere – are no longer deniable. There is general agreement among leading scientists that the increased con...
متن کاملCarbon-negative biofuels from low-input high-diversity grassland biomass.
Biofuels derived from low-input high-diversity (LIHD) mixtures of native grassland perennials can provide more usable energy, greater greenhouse gas reductions, and less agrichemical pollution per hectare than can corn grain ethanol or soybean biodiesel. High-diversity grasslands had increasingly higher bioenergy yields that were 238% greater than monoculture yields after a decade. LIHD biofuel...
متن کاملCurrent Challenges in Commercially Producing Biofuels from Lignocellulosic Biomass
Biofuels that are produced from biobased materials are a good alternative to petroleum based fuels. They offer several benefits to society and the environment. Producing second generation biofuels is even more challenging than producing first generation biofuels due the complexity of the biomass and issues related to producing, harvesting, and transporting less dense biomass to centralized bior...
