Journal ArticleDOI
Organosolv pretreatment of wheat straw for efficient ethanol production using various solvents
TL;DR: In this article, five solvents with different physicochemical properties were evaluated for organosolv pretreatment with wheat straw (Triticum durum Desf. ), in the presence of 23m −3 sulfuric acid as the pretreatment's catalyst.
Journal ArticleDOI
A novel fungal GH30 xylanase with xylobiohydrolase auxiliary activity.
Constantinos Katsimpouras,Grigorios Dedes,Nikolaos S. Thomaidis,Evangelos Topakas,Evangelos Topakas +4 more
TL;DR: The discovered xylobiohydrolase mode of action offers new insights into fungal enzymatic systems that are employed for the utilization of lignocellulosic biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequential high gravity ethanol fermentation and anaerobic digestion of steam explosion and organosolv pretreated corn stover
Constantinos Katsimpouras,Maria Zacharopoulou,Leonidas Matsakas,Ulrika Rova,Paul Christakopoulos,Evangelos Topakas,Evangelos Topakas +6 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the suitability of pretreated corn stover (CS) to serve as feedstock for high gravity (HG) ethanol production at solids-content of 24wt%.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of high concentrated cellulosic ethanol by acetone/water oxidized pretreated beech wood
Constantinos Katsimpouras,Konstantinos G. Kalogiannis,Aggeliki Kalogianni,Angelos A. Lappas,Evangelos Topakas +4 more
TL;DR: The optimization of the pretreatment process allowed the efficient utilization of beech wood residual biomass for the production of high concentrations of cellulosic ethanol, while obtaining lignin that can be upgraded towards high-added-value chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Strategies and Platforms for Industrial Isoprenoid Engineering
TL;DR: This work provides an overview of promising engineering strategies that have proven to be successful for the high-yield production of isoprenoids, and reviews emerging strategies in the field, including compartmentalization between synthetic consortia members, novel bypass pathways forIsoprenoid synthesis, cell-free systems, and improvement of the lipid content to overcome storage isopranoid limitations.
