Polyhydroxyalkanoate production from fermented volatile fatty acids: effect of pH and feeding regimes.
The combined fermentation of sludge from the secondary sedimentation tank of municipal wastewater treatment plants and food waste enables not only waste reduction, but also the acquisition of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) for the biosynthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). To better understand variables influencing the production of VFAs and PHAs, this study considered anaerobic fermentation of...
متن کاملThe Absorption of Soluble, Volatile Fatty Acids*
Experimental investigations show clearly that the absorption and metabolism of the short chain, water-soluble fatty acids differ in some way from those of the long chain fatty acids insoluble in water. Experiments by Lebedeff (1883), Leube (1895), Zunts (1901), and Eckstein (1929) show no evidence of the butyryl radical in the deposited fat when fed either as a fat or in the form of tributyrin....
متن کاملVolatile Fatty Acids and Fatty Acid Composition of Silage Species
In this study, total fatty acid composition and volatile fatty acid of silage species in Turkey was determined by using Gas Chromatography (Shimadzu 15-A). Total lipids were extracted from the corn silage, alfalfa silage and figüre silage samples by the method of Folch et al. Silage species were a total of 15 different fatty acids. These fatty acids between C12 to C24 have changed. Unsaturated ...
متن کاملProduction of polyhydroxyalkanoate biopolymer from vinasse using Ralstonia eutropha
Background Brazil is the world’s leading ethanol producer and exporter. Due to increasing fuel demands, ethanol production has escalated in recent years. Vinasse is generated as a byproduct of the ethanol industry and is mainly used as fertilizer. The excessive usage of vinasse in soil leads to groundwater contamination [1]. The objective of this project is to develop a fermentation process wit...
متن کاملAcidogenic Fermentation Towards Valorisation of Organic Waste Streams into Volatile Fatty Acids
Anaerobic digestion (AD) has been applied over the years for the treatment of a wide variety of organic streams. The advantages of this process over other biological treatments relate mainly to the low cost of bioreactors operation, when compared to aerobic processes, since AD-based treatments offer a cost-effective solution for the treatment of high-strength organic wastes, through economic re...
