Description

This edition of the Industrial Bioprocessing TOE features trends and innovations in effective production of biochemical and biofuel, such as a mechanism to control the level of starch content in algae, a light-based biorefinery process for hydrogen production from wastewater resources, yeast pulcherrimin biosynthesis pathway to improve production of isobutanol, and eco-friendly enzymatic synthesis of fatty acid sugar esters from lignocellulosic substrates. The TOE also focuses on alternative approach to produce ultra-high performance concrete from industrial waste.

The Industrial Bioprocessing TechVision Opportunity Engine (TOE) provides intelligence on technologies, processes and strategic insights of industries involving bioprocessing, including innovations in the development and production of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, alternative fuels, chemical feedstocks, food and beverages, and consumer products.

Keywords: Light-based biorefinery process, hydrogen, pulcherrimin, isobutanol, ultra-high performance concrete, enzymatic synthesis, biosurfactants
