1. Research on the Hydrothermal Conversion of Xylose Catalysed by CO2-H2O into Furfural
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Agricultural waste treatment and carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel combustion have been critical challenges for sustainable development. This work is part of a study on converting straw into biofuels, which involves using xylose as the material, carbon dioxide (CO2) as the catalyst, and water (H2O) and Gamma-Valerolactone (GVL) as the solvent to produce furfural through hydrothermal conversion.

2. Evaluating Sugar Signaling during Xylose Oxidation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologiAbstract : The sugar signaling state of cells oxidizing xylose was investigated through the chromosomal integration of the Weimberg pathway into previously established biosensor strains capable of monitoring the Snf3p/Rgt2p, SNF1/Mig1p, and cAMP/PKA pathways through the expression of HXT1, SUC2, and TPS1, respectively. Ultimately, two new strains were successfully developed containing both the Weimberg pathway and a biosensor for either HXT1 (TMB CB 112) or TPS1 (TMB CB 117). READ MORE

3. Construction and Characterization of 3rd Generation Saccharomyces cerevisiae Strains for PHB production form Xylose
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi; Lunds universitet/BioteknikAbstract : Poly-3-D-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biopolymer naturally produced by a range of bacterial species. PHB production both from glucose and xylose has also been enabled by engineering the robust baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, however yields remain low. In the present study, additional modifications were carried out in S. READ MORE

4. Production of bioethanol from wheat straw hydrolysate using reverse membrane bioreactor (rMBR)
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : The second-generation bioethanol production in which lignocellulosic material is used as feedstock faces some difficulties. Lignocellulosic materials have to be pretreated prior to fermentation. READ MORE

5. Separation and Extraction of Proteins and Polysaccharides from the Seaweed Palmaria Palmata using Enzyme Digestion
University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemiAbstract : Inom matindustrin och djurfoderindustrin finns det stor potential för användning av tång som näringsrikt födoämne. Palmaria palmata (P. Palmata), eller i vardagligt tal, dulse är ett rött sjögräs med högt proteininnehåll (8-35%), som innehåller många mineraler som t.ex. READ MORE
