background: in algeria the date wastes production is estimated at least 85.000 tones. date wastes is an economic source of carbohydrates for conversion to industrial enzymes because it is readily available and relatively low priced.objective: the aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of using date wastes as a substrate for the production of a-amylase and invertase. materials...

production of lysine by corynebacterium glutamicum (ptcc 1532) from different agricultural by-products (molasses and pulpy waste date) was compared to glucose as raw materials. for this purpose, ammonium sulphate was selected as a constant nitrogen source. the effect of different nitrogen sources was also investigated with glucose as a constant carbon source. the production of l-lysine was exam...

The date palm Phoenix dactylifera has played an important role in the day-to-day life of the people for the last 7000 years. Today worldwide production, utilization and industrialization of dates are continuously increasing since date fruits have earned great importance in human nutrition owing to their rich content of essential nutrients. Tons of date palm fruit wastes are discarded daily by t...

The bioconversion of cellulosic wastes into high-value bio-products by saccharification and fermentation processes is an important step that can reduce the environmental pollution caused by agricultural wastes. In this study, enzymatic saccharification of treated and untreated date palm cellulosic wastes by the cellulases from Geobacillus stearothermophilus was optimized. The alkaline pre-treat...

Management of municipal solid wastes (MSW) in most developed societies now involves the use of thermo-chemical conversion methods. This leads to energy and material recovery while also protecting the environment. However, till date most of the wastes generated in Nigeria (including plastic wastes) are either land-filled or openly burnt. These methods are not sustainable and environmentally non-...

the yield and quality features of raisin are affected by various factors especially har-vest date and dipping solutions. combinations of different harvest date (four harvest dates) and post harvest alkaline emulsion (three alkaline solutions) were tested in vitis vi-nifera l. cv ‘paycamy’ green raisin production in kashmar, khorasan province of iran. such raisin quantitative and qualitative cha...

today the industrial wastes are one of the main problems in the developing countries. discharging the industrial wastewater into environment is harmful for human health and other living creatures.thus decreasing of the pollution load of waste waters is an important environmental issue.adsorption of chemical oxygen demand by biomass wastes can be a proper and low cost method for cod removal from...
