Published in 2019 at "Biotechnology Progress"

DOI: 10.1002/btpr.2753

Abstract: Butanol, a fuel with better characteristics than ethanol, can be produced via acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE) fermentation using lignocellulosic biomass as a carbon source. However, many inhibitors present in the hydrolysate limit the yield of the fermentation… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology"

DOI: 10.1007/s00253-025-13522-1

Abstract: Biological flocculation is a complex phenomenon that is often treated as a black box. As a result, flocculation problems are usually remediated without knowledge of the exact causes. We show that it is feasible to… read more here.
