Ethanol Production from Maize
The production of fuel ethanol from corn grain is widely carried out in the US, with total current production at 7 billion gallons. This may soon reach 10 billion gallons or more. This chapter addresses the potential of fuel ethanol as an additional source of product based on utilization of the cellulosic (non-food) portions of maize, and in particular the pericarp, cobs, stalks and leaves of t...
متن کاملGenetic Engineering of Yeast for Efficient Biofuel Production
The global biofuels market is expected to rise from $82.7 billion in 2011 to $185.3 billion in 2021. Genetic engineering paves its way towards efficient biomass conversion into biofuel through metabolic manipulations. Present article is an effort to explore the role of Biotechnology engineering in Yeast as a tool towards efficient production of bioethanol through economically comprehensive rout...
متن کاملPeptide-mediated microalgae harvesting method for efficient biofuel production
BACKGROUND Production of biofuels from microalgae has been recognized to be a promising route for a sustainable energy supply. However, the microalgae harvesting process is a bottleneck for industrialization because it is energy intensive. Thus, by displaying interactive protein factors on the cell wall, oleaginous microalgae can acquire the auto- and controllable-flocculation function, yieldin...
متن کاملBiofuel Production from Algae Utilizing Wastewater
The growing concern surrounding the continued use of fossil fuels and rapid depletion of fossil fuel reserves, global climate change, rising crude oil price and environmental degradation have forced scientific community and researchers to find out alternative energy sources. The potential of microalgae as a source of renewable energy has received considerable interest. However, the overall curr...
متن کاملLipid-based biofuel production from wastewater.
Increasing world population, urbanization and industrialization are driving global increases in wastewater production. Wastewater comprises significant amounts of chemical energy primarily in the form of organic molecules (in particular lipids), which are currently not being recovered comprehensively. Within biological wastewater treatment (BWWT) systems, specialized microorganisms assimilate a...
