Visualizing Chiral Interactions in Carbohydrates Adsorbed on Au(111) by High-Resolution STM Imaging

Klaus Kern, Stephan Rauschenbach, Uta Schlickum

Carbohydrates are the most abundant organic material on Earth and the structural "material of choice" in many living systems. Nevertheless, design and engineering of synthetic carbohydrate materials presently lag behind that for protein and nucleic acids. ...

A cellulolytic fungal biofilm enhances the consolidated bioconversion of cellulose to short chain fatty acids by the rumen microbiome

Robert Lawrence Shahab

The ability of the multispecies biofilm membrane reactors (MBM reactors) to provide distinguished niches for aerobic and anaerobic microbes at the same time was used for the investigation of the consolidated bioprocessing of cellulose to short chain fatty ...

Comparison of liquid hot water (LHW) and high boiling alcohol/water (HBAW) pretreatments for improving enzymatic saccharification of cellulose in bamboo

Li Chen, Li Shuai

Liquid hot water (LHW) and high-boiling point alcohol/water (HBAW) pretreatments were compared to improve enzymatic saccharification of cellulose in moso bamboo. When pretreatments were conducted at 200 degrees C for 40 min, HBAW (20% (v/v) 1,4- butanediol ...

Formaldehyde stabilization facilitates lignin monomer production during biomass depolymerization

Yiming Li, Jeremy Luterbacher, Li Shuai, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago

Practical, high-yield lignin depolymerization methods could greatly increase biorefinery productivity and profitability. However, development of these methods is limited by the presence of interunit carbon-carbon bonds within native lignin, and further by ...

Enhanced Conversion of Carbohydrates to the Platform Chemical 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Designer Ionic Liquids

Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Gabor Laurenczy, Zhaofu Fei, Ning Yan, Sviatlana Siankevich

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a key platform chemical that may be obtained from various cellulosic (biomass) derivatives. Previously, it has been shown that ionic liquids (ILs) facilitate the catalytic conversion of glucose into HMF. Herein, we demonstr ...

Parameter and process significance in mechanistic modeling of cellulose hydrolysis

David Andrew Barry

A process-based model relevant to landfill and anaerobic digesters was developed, which included a novel approach to biomass transfer between a cellulose-bound biofilm and biomass in the bulk liquid. Model results highlighted the significance of the bacter ...

One-Step Conversion of Cellobiose to C6-Alcohols Using a Ruthenium Nanocluster Catalyst

Paul Joseph Dyson, Cheng Zhao, Ning Yan, Huizhen Liu

The one-step conversion of cellulose to C6-alcs. via green and energy efficient approaches has, as far as we are aware, not been reported. Such a process presents a considerable challenge, the two key problems being (1) finding a suitable solvent that diss ...

Etude du phénomène de l'élimination de la mémoire de forme du bois densifié par post-traitement thermo-hydro-mécanique

Frédéric Heger

Owing to its porous cellular structure and polymeric components, wood can be easily shaped in its transversal direction when it is heated and has sufficient water content. Thanks to this thermohydrous behaviour many manufacturing processes such as densific ...
