The aim of this study was to develop a biotechnological production process for xylitol. The xylitol production characteristics of Candida millerii, Candida guilliermondii and Candida tropicalis were compared. C. tropicalis was the best xylitol producer. A volumetric productivity of 5.7 g xylitol L h was achieved with 69 % yield from D-xylose on a mineral medium with a modified repeated fed batc...

The liquid chemical hydrogen storage technology has great potentials for high-density and transportation at ambient temperature pressure. However, its commercial applications highly rely on the high-performance heterogeneous dehydrogenation catalysts, owing to difficulty of materials. In recent years, chemists materials scientists found that supported metal nanoparticles (MNPs) can exhibit high...
