The current global food system produces substantial waste and carbon emissions while exacerbating the effects of global hunger and protein deficiency. This study aims to address these challenges by exploring the use of lignocellulosic…
This work is related to the setup of overflowing exponential fed-batch cultures (O-EFBC) derived from carbon limited EFBC dedicated to the production of mycosubtilin, an antifungal lipopeptide belonging to the iturin family. O-EFBC permits…
Expired functional drinks have great valorisation potential due to the high concentration of organic molecules present. However, detailed information of the resources in these expired functional drinks is limited, hindering the rational…
Living cells exhibit a complex organization comprising numerous compartments, among which are RNA- and protein-rich membraneless, liquid-like organelles known as biomolecular condensates. Energy-consuming processes regulate their formation…
Using oxide substrates for functional ceramic thin film deposition beyond their usual application as chemical inert, lattice-matched support for the films represents a novel concept in ceramic thin film research. The substrates are applied…
Anaerobic digestion (AD) offers a sustainable biotechnology to recover resources from carbon-rich wastewater, such as food-processing wastewater. Despite crude wastewater characterisation, the impact of detailed chemical fingerprinting on…
When bacteria are grown on a mixture of two growth-limiting substrates, they exhibit a rich spectrum of substrate consumption patterns including diauxic growth, simultaneous consumption, and bistable growth. In previous work, we showed that…
A moisture-driven air capture system was developed and demonstrated for cultivating cyanobacteria and microalgae at the flask (50 mL), bench (12 L) and small pilot (840 L) scale. Purolite A501 anion exchange resin beads were found to be…
2-Ethyhexyl nitrate (2-EHN) is a major additive of fuel which is used to comply with the cetane number of diesel. Because of its wide use and possible accidental release, 2-EHN is a potential pollutant of the environment. In this study,…
Microalgae are an important source of precursors (e.g. lipids) for a variety of biosynthetic processes (e.g. biofuel production). Their co-culturing with other organisms providing essential substrates for growth may reduce cost and provide…
Immotile microbes inhabit nearly every environment on Earth, from soils and sediments to food matrices -- yet how they disperse through these physically confining environments is poorly understood. Here, we show that immotile microbial…
To substitute petroleum-based materials with bio-based alternatives, microbial fermentation combined with inexpensive biomass is suggested. In this study Saccharina latissima hydrolysate, candy-factory waste, and digestate from full-scale…
During grain growth in multiphase system, a convincing understanding on how the evolution kinetics of an individual phase-grains relates to the growth rate of entire microstructure is yet to be achieved. Therefore, in this work, comfortably…
Anaerobic digestion enables the water industry to treat wastewater as a resource for generating energy and recovering valuable by-products. The complexity of the anaerobic digestion process has motivated the development of complex models.…
The anaerobic co-digestion of slaughterhouse wastewater and food waste offers a sustainable approach to waste treatment and biogas production. However, limited literature was found on the study of ferric oxide as conductive material in…
Metal chalcogenides are promising layered topological materials, yet their electronic performance is often limited by parasitic bulk conduction arising from defects that introduce excess carriers and shift the Fermi level out of the…
Understanding grain-boundary mobility during spark plasma sintering can enable microstructure control in high-entropy carbides, yet quantitative grain-growth kinetics remain scarce. In this work, grain growth kinetics and densification…
We have studied the growth kinetics of isolated precipitates growing from a supersaturated matrix in 3-dimensions (3-D) using phase field models; we assume isotropic interfacial energy consider both constant and variable diffusivity. We…
In the subtropical gyres, phytoplankton rely on eddies for transporting nutrients from depth to the euphotic zone. But, what controls the rate of nutrient supply for new production? We show that vertical nutrient flux depends both on the…
The processing of agricultural wastes towards extraction of renewable resources is recently being considered as a promising alternative to conventional biofuel production processes. Agricultural residues represent an abundant and…
