Microorganisms and enzymes for lignocellulosic biorefineries (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Enzymes and Microorganisms for Lignocellulosic Biorefinery comprehensively deals with the enzymes and microorganisms for lignocellulosic degradation, challenges in the engineering of lignocellulolytic enzymes and mining and engineering for better enzymes. The book discusses commonly used bioprocesses for lignocellulosic biorefinery, including separated hydrolysis and fermentation, simultaneous saccharification and fermentation and consolidated bioprocessing. Among these methods, construction of microbial co-culturing systems via consolidated bioprocessing is regarded as a potential strategy to efficiently produce biochemicals and biofuels, providing theoretical direction for constructing efficient and stable biorefinery process system in the future. The book discusses construction of high-performance enzyme cocktails, and presents progress witnessed in engineering lignocellulolytic enzymes and enzyme-producing microorganisms and future perspectives in the context of developing cost-effective lignocellulose conversion processes.

• Presents drivers for biorefinery industry development
• Discusses global drivers towards the advancements of lignocellulosic biorefineries, technical and operational challenges for industrialization towards overcoming them
• Discusses the biorefinery value chain, its economical, and technical considerations
• Provides SWOT analysis and future directions
