Integrated 1st and 2nd generation sugarcane bio-refinery for jet fuel production in Brazil
Techno-economic and greenhouse gas emissions assessment
This study presents a techno-economic analysis and an environmental assessment, of the whole production chain (biomass production, sugar extraction, biomass pretreatment, sugars fermentation, and products recovery and purification), of a fully autarkic sugarcane-based biorefinery

Bioprocess intensification
Cases that (don't) work
Development of affordable and low carbon biobased manufacturing depends critically on strategies that reduce cost and emission profiles. This paper indicates that efforts around the reduction of capital costs by intensification of process equipment need to be carefully weighed ag

Opening the conceptual design of biobased processes to a context-sensitive sustainability analysis
Biobased production has been promoted as an alternative to fossil-based production to mitigate climate change. However, emerging concerns over the sustainability of biobased products have shown that tensions can emerge between different objectives and concerns, like emission redu

Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Sugarcane Bagasse in Aqueous Two-Phase Systems (ATPS)
Exploration and Conceptual Process Design
The enzymatic conversion of lignocellulosic material to sugars can provide a carbon source for the production of energy (fuels) and a wide range of renewable products. However, the efficiency of this conversion is impaired due to product (sugar) inhibition. Even though several st

Production of bio-based acetate is commonly hindered by the high costs of the downstream processing. In this paper, a model is developed to describe a new method that recovers acetate salts using anion exchange resins, and subsequently desorbs and upgrades them using CO2-expanded

Strong anion exchange recovery of aqueous dicarboxylates
Extraction and sorption equilibrium comparison
Ion-exchange can be used for primary recovery of aqueous dicarboxylic acids at neutral pH, where there is almost complete acid dissociation. The equilibria of anion exchange of aqueous dicarboxylate anions (fumarate, itaconate, malate and succinate) with anions (Cl− and OH−) boun

The role of ionic liquid pretreatment and recycling design in the sustainability of a biorefinery
A sugarcane to ethanol example
The use of lignocellulosic (LC) materials, especially residues, as feedstock in biorefinery applications is a promising alternative to the oil refinery production of fuels, power and chemicals, reducing the global warming potential (GWP) related to these activities. The conversio

In situ product removal by direct crystallization
An attractive approach for process integration of whole-cell biocatalyzed reactions
In biochemical industry, downstream processing is often the cost-limiting factor during the production of pharmaceutical and fine-chemical products because low product concentrations are usually obtained from the reactor, requiring a large train of separation and purification ste

The use of diesel fuel in crop and transportation operations is responsible for one third of the carbon emissions in sugarcane biorefineries. A possible solution is to replace it with biodiesel from lipids, directly produced from sugarcane by highly productive heterotrophic micro

Transfusion of donor-derived red blood cells (RBCs) is the most common form of cell therapy. Production of transfusion-ready cultured RBCs (cRBCs) is a promising replacement for the current, fully donor-dependent therapy. A single transfusion unit, however, contains 2 × 1012 RBC,

Aqueous two-phase systems applied to the enzymatic hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse
Screening methodology, thermodynamic modelling and process design
Targeting to improve the utilization of lignocellulosic residues in the ethanol processing industry, this work aimed to test if the product inhibition of the enzymatic hydrolysis could be relieved by extractive reaction using aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS). The performance of e

From waste to products
Valorizing food side streams to recover natural products
This thesis presents novel ways of recovering of valuable compounds from food industry side streams. It does so via evaluating two case studies for the valorization of such streams. These types of streams are often referred to as waste and discarded. However, they are rich source

Product emulsification in multiphase fermentations
The unspoken challenge in microbial production of sesquiterpenes
Sesquiterpenes are a versatile group of 15-carbon molecules, traditionally extracted from plants for diverse applications ranging from fuels to fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Scarcity of natural resources and emergence of new applications have encouraged the development of s
