  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. Development of a Novel Biocatalytic Cascade for the Valorisation of 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfural

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Johannes Johansson; [2022]
    Keywords : Biocatalysis; Enzyme immobilization; 5- Hydroxymethyl furfural; Transaminase; Galactose Oxidase; Biokatalys; Enzym-immobilisering; 5- hydroxymetyl furfural; Transaminas; Galaktosoxidas;

    Abstract : Den nära förestående bristen på fossila resurser i kombination med deras associerade miljöfarlighet betonar behovet av utveckling av alternativa, mer hållbara kemikalier. I denna studie utvecklades en enzymatisk kaskad för förädling av 5-(hydroxymetyl)furfural (HMF) till 5-(aminometyl)-2-furfuraldehyd (AMFA). READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. 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

  6. 5. Study on fungal pellet morphology and its industrial applications

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Vamsi Krishna Ravula; [2017]
    Keywords : Filamentous fungi; Ascomycetes; Edible fungi; Pellet; Neurospora intermedia;

    Abstract : Mycelial pellet formation by filamentous fungi is one of the most researched topics in fungal biotechnology research. Pellets are generally formed as a result of a complex interaction process through the influence of many cultivation factors such as inoculum size, pH, dissolved oxygen level, agitation system, nucleating agents, additives, trace metals, CO2, temperature, reactor types, carbon substrate, rheology, culture modes, fermenter geometry, nitrogen and phosphate levels etc. READ MORE
