Tamis, J. (author), Sorokin, D.Y. (author), Jiang, Y. (author), Van Loosdrecht, M.C.M. (author), Kleerebezem, R. (author)Background Many waste streams have a relatively high vegetable oil content, which is a potential resource that should be recovered. Microbial storage compound production for the recovery of lipids from lipid-water emulsions with open (unsterilized) microbial cultures was investigated in a sequencing batch reactor using a diluted vegetable oil...journal article 2015

Jiang, Y. (author), Mikova, G. (author), Kleerebezem, R. (author), Van der Wielen, L.A.M. (author), Cuellar Soares, M.C. (author)This study focused on investigating the feasibility of purifying polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) from mixed culture biomass by alkaline-based chemical treatment. The PHB-containing biomass was enriched on acetate under non-sterile conditions. Alkaline treatment (0.2 M NaOH) together with surfactant SDS (0.2 w/v% SDS) could reach 99% purity, with more...journal article 2015

Jiang, Y. (author)Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) is a natural bacterial storage compound, which can be used as carbon and electron source. Their remarkable similarities in physical properties to conventional plastics, such as polypropylene, attract great commercial interest. This thesis focuses on PHAs production by bacterial enrichments. As compared to the current...doctoral thesis 2011
