  1. 1. Investigation of an enzymatic cascade for the production of 5- hydroxymethylfurfurylamine

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Sajitha Chandrakumaran; [2023]
    Keywords : Biocatalysis; Silicibacter pomeroyi; transaminase; enzymatic cascade; Cadaverine; Biokatalys; Silicibacter pomeroyi; transaminas; Enzymatisk kaskad; Kadaverin;

    Abstract : Biokatalys medför ett alternativt tillvägagångsätt för att kunna utforska och utveckla kemiskt syntetiserade vägar för produktionen av eftertraktade kemikalier, där hållbarhet och miljön tas till beaktan. I denna studie undersöktes potentialen av en enzymatisk kaskad för produktion av 5-hydroximetylfurfurylamin (HMFA). READ MORE

  3. 2. Process simulation of HMF production from wheat bran and sugar beet pulp

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Matilda Petersson; [2021]
    Keywords : 5-hydroxymethylfurfural; Wheat bran; Sugar beet pulp; Process simulation; Aspen Plus; Biorefinery; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Due to the progressing environmental problems related to global warming, the chemical industry is transitioning from fossil to renewable feedstocks. For added environmental benefits, surplus biomass from the agricultural industry which currently does not have any high-value applications can be used for production of chemicals. READ MORE

  4. 3. Study of a valorisation process for biomass industrial waste involving acid cooking and enzymatic hydrolysis

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Nicolas Brunet; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Lignocellulosic biomass has potential to chip in the chemical and biofuels supplies in future societies,even though lignocellulose is a recalcitrant structure that has to be treated in several steps. After theirproper life cycle, wood-derived materials such as particleboards have few outcomes today apart fromenergy recovery for heat production. READ MORE

  6. 5. Upscaling of FDCA Synthesis from HMF to an Industrial Scale

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Linnéa Wahlberg; [2020]
    Keywords : FDCA; HMF; Plastics; Sugar; Biobased; PEF; Industry; Industrial scale; Production; Upscaling; 2; 5-furandicarboxylic acid; 5-hydroxymethylfurfural; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : To support the transition into green plastics, the upscaling and economic analysis of 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) synthesis from 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) was done. The project can be described as a plant-to-plastics process, with sugar beet-derived HMF as a starting point. READ MORE
