Enzymatic hydrolysis of apple pulp followed by lactic acid fermentation

Enzymatic hydrolysis of potato pulp.

BACKGROUND Potato pulp constitutes a complicated system of four types of polysaccharides: cellulose, hemicellulose, pectin and starch. Its composition makes it a potential and attractive raw material for the production of the second generation bioethanol. The aim of this research project was to assess the usefulness of commercial enzymatic preparations for the hydrolysis of potato pulp and to e...

Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation of Bagasse Sulfite Pulp to Lactic Acid by Bacillus coagulans CC17

Lignocellulosic biomass is an economical and renewable feedstock for microbial production of bulk chemicals such as lactic acid. In many cases, simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) can achieve lower cost and higher productivity than the classical double step fermentation. Thus, in the present study, bagasse sulfite pulp was directly employed to produce lactic acid by SSF, using ...

Lactic acid fermentation

One isomer of lactic acid This is presented to you by TATSA WAMBEA LANDRY www.futurelabtechnologist.weebly.com [1]</'' Lactic acid fermentation is a biological process by which sugars such as glucose, fructose, and sucrose, are converted into cellular energy and the metabolic byproduct lactate. It is an anaerobic fermentation reaction that occurs in some bacteria and animal cells, such as muscl...

From raw cassava pulp to L-lactic acid via fermentation by Rhizopus oryzae

Currently the natural crude oil depletion has been brought into awareness. This affects many industries including petrochemical manufacturing. As a result, there are many attempts to develop novel processes to produce substitutes to such petrochemical products including plastics. Polylactic acid, made from polymerization of optically pure isomer of lactic acid, is one of such examples. In addit...
