Cr(III) Removal from Aqueous Solutions by Depectinated Sugar Beet Pulp

Removal of phosphate from aqueous solution by biochar derived from anaerobically digested sugar beet tailings.

Biochar converted from agricultural residues or other carbon-rich wastes may provide new methods and materials for environmental management, particularly with respect to carbon sequestration and contaminant remediation. In this study, laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the removal of phosphate from aqueous solution by biochar derived from anaerobically digested sugar beet tail...

Cellulase Production by Trichoderma reesei using Sugar Beet Pulp

Cellulase production by the fungus Trichoderma reesei was studied using sugar beet pulp (SBP) as a substrate. The subculture medium was a salt solution consisting of KH2PO4, CaCl2, etc. Fungal cells were sub-cultured in an orbital shaker (180 rpm) at 30°C for 1-2 generations (two days for each generation) and were then used as an inoculum. Exponential cells were inoculated into a medium contain...

Nitrate Removal from Aqueous Solutions by Magnetic Nanoparticle

Introduction: Due to causing methemoglobinemia, different cancers, and teratogen effects in human nitrate contamination of water resources has become a critical environmental problem Therefore, the aim of this work was to determine the optimum condition of nitrate sorption onto magnetic nanoparticle. Materials and Methods: The removal of nitrate from aqueous solutions by magnetic nanoparticles...

The fermentation of sugar-beet pulp silage.

Fungal secretomes enhance sugar beet pulp hydrolysis

The recalcitrance of lignocellulose makes enzymatic hydrolysis of plant biomass for the production of second generation biofuels a major challenge. This work investigates an efficient and economic approach for the enzymatic hydrolysis of sugar beet pulp (SBP), which is a difficult to degrade, hemicellulose-rich by-product of the table sugar industry. Three fungal strains were grown on different...
