Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of anaerobic digestion process: A review
TL;DR: This review provides a detailed summary of the research conducted on the inhibition of anaerobic processes and indicates that co-digestion with other waste, adaptation of microorganisms to inhibitory substances, and incorporation of methods to remove or counteract toxicants before an aerobic digestion can significantly improve the waste treatment efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Astaxanthin-Producing Green Microalga Haematococcus pluvialis: From Single Cell to High Value Commercial Products.
TL;DR: Important and recent developments ranging from cultivation, harvest and postharvest bio-processing technologies to metabolic control and genetic engineering are reviewed in detail, focusing on biomass and astaxanthin production from this biotechnologically important microalga.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ye Sun,Jay J. Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: Dilute sulfuric acid pretreatment of rye straw and bermudagrass before enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose was investigated in this study to investigate the enzymatics digestibility of the biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Switchgrass for Bioethanol and Other Value-Added Applications: A Review
Deepak R. Keshwani,Jay J. Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: Review of published research on the conversion of switchgrass into bioethanol and other value-added products finds increased biomass yields, optimization of feedstock composition for bioenergy applications, and efficient pentose fermentation to improve ethanol yields.
Journal ArticleDOI
