1. Cultivation of Yarrowia lipolytica on a hydrolysate based on food waste
University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular SciencesAbstract : Interest in replacing fish oil and fish meal as fish feed ingredients with more socially, environmen-tally, and economically sustainable alternatives has increased in recent years. One such alternative could be the use of yeast biomass. READ MORE

2. Using biological conversion to increase the value of short-chain fatty acids by mixed cultures
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : The development of anaerobic digestion processes has gained recognition for its potential for producing volatile fatty acids alongside bio-alcohols. In addition, the fermentation process and the products produced from biological fermentation have the possibility to overcome the abundance of organic waste in our society, which is potentially immensely rich in untapped valuable potential products.

3. Isolation of an ammonia-tolerant syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacterium originating from a thermophilic biogas digester
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Syntrophic relationships between fatty acid degrading bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens are important for a well-functioning anaerobic degradation process during biogas production from organic waste material. This is particularly important in biogas processes fed protein-rich material as their degradation gives rise to high levels of ammonia, which inhibits many microorganisms. READ MORE

4. High-loaded thermophilic anaerobic digestion of mixed sewage sludge : A pilot study
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)Abstract : Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are important infrastructural components in a society and also important for sustainability. In a WWTP the most common treatment configuration is mechanical, biological, and chemical treatment of the wastewater. READ MORE

5. Production of filamentous fungal biomass on waste-derived volatile fatty acids for ruminant feed supplementation and it's in vitro digestion analysis
University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomiAbstract : Single cell proteins such as that of edible filamentous fungal biomass are considered as a promising sustainable source of animal feed supplementation. Filamentous fungi can be cultivated on different organic substrates including volatile fatty acids (VFAs) such as acetic, propionic, and butyric acids. READ MORE
