Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first step in producing ethanol from starch, the hydrolysis of starch molecules, can be carried out at low, energy-saving temperatures by the use of barley alpha-amylase in an enzyme hydrolysis process. This report describes research toward solving one problem with such a process, namely the gradual deactivation of the amylase enzyme. The research investigated the stabilization of barley alpha-amylase on fine silica particles, with immobilization procedures adjusted to optimize enzyme activity. Effects of product inhibition, thermal stability, & operational stability were determined and results are presented with regard to the feasibility of using the immobilized enzyme to hydrolyze wheat starch particles at temperatures below 55 degrees C. In addition, a mathematical model is presented with equations for product inhibition, hydrolysis kinetics, and enzyme decay. The fit between model & experimental results is also compared.

Book excerpt: RENEWABLE ENERGY INNOVATIONS This critical text, designed for microbiologists, biotechnologists, entrepreneurs, process engineers, chemical engineers, electrical engineers, physicists, and environmentalists, assesses the current knowledge about lab-scale and large-scale production of renewable and sustainable fuels, chemicals, and materials. Global warming is having a huge impact on the world’s ecosystem. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up early, and plant and animal ranges have relocated. On a worldwide scale, the threat posed by climate change and pollution is obvious. A green and sustainable future necessitates using renewable resources to produce fuels, chemicals, and materials. This book investigates diverse bioprocesses that are crucial to everyday life, including the key concerns regarding the generation of biofuels, energy, and food securities, along with waste management. Commercial interest in biotechnological processes has risen to produce pharmaceuticals, health supplements, foodstuffs, biofuels, and chemicals using a biocatalyst such as enzymes, microorganisms, plant cells, or animal cells in a bioreactor. The sustainability of renewable biomass, replacement of depleted fossil fuels, and the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions from the existing chemical and oil industries are the key benefits of switching to bioproducts. This book discusses bioprocessing to produce biofuels, biobased chemicals, bioproducts, and biomass biorefinery processes. This involves designing novel pretreatment and fractionation technologies for lignocellulose biomass into cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin and the conversion of these streams into biofuels and biobased chemicals via biochemical and thermochemical routes. This book also covers the advancement of oleaginous microorganisms for biofuels and nutraceutical, biological wastewater treatment. Written and edited by authors from leading biotechnology research groups from across the world, this exciting new volume covers all of these technologies, including the basic concepts and the problems and solutions involved with the practical applications in the real world. Whether for the veteran engineer or scientist, student, manager, or another technician working in the field, this volume is essential for any library.
