Engineering Plant Biomass Lignin Content and Composition for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Lignin is an aromatic biopolymer involved in providing structural support to plant cell walls. Compared to the other cell wall polymers, i.e., cellulose and hemicelluloses, lignin has been considered a hindrance in cellulosic bioethanol production due to the complexity involved in its separation from other polymers of various biomass feedstocks. Nevertheless, lignin is a potential source of val...
متن کاملGreen biofuels and bioproducts: bases for sustainability analysis
Currently, the chemical industry is largely petroleum based and although the number of ongoing large-scale biocatalytic processes is relatively low, a trend in growth is expected and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and other agencies aim to have 30% of the total chemical industry based on renewable sources by 2050 (Philp et al., 2013). At present, a good number ...
متن کاملDirect and Multistep Conversion of Lignin to Biofuels
Though the rapid development of human society, concerns on the fossil fuel shortage, pollution, and end-of-life disposal issues are attracting the most attention nowadays. Therefore, more efforts from governments, industries, and research institutes have been paid to the sustainable development than it has ever been done before. Cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose are the major components of bi...
متن کاملMetagenomic scaffolds enable combinatorial lignin transformation.
Engineering the microbial transformation of lignocellulosic biomass is essential to developing modern biorefining processes that alleviate reliance on petroleum-derived energy and chemicals. Many current bioprocess streams depend on the genetic tractability of Escherichia coli with a primary emphasis on engineering cellulose/hemicellulose catabolism, small molecule production, and resistance to...
متن کاملRhodosporidium toruloides: a new platform organism for conversion of lignocellulose into terpene biofuels and bioproducts
BACKGROUND Economical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels and bioproducts is central to the establishment of a robust bioeconomy. This requires a conversion host that is able to both efficiently assimilate the major lignocellulose-derived carbon sources and divert their metabolites toward specific bioproducts. RESULTS In this study, the carotenogenic yeast Rhodosporidium torul...
