Anaerobic fermentation of glycerol: a path to economic viability for the biofuels industry.
TL;DR: The anaerobic fermentation of Glycerol in microbes and the harnessing of this metabolic process to convert abundant and low-priced glycerol streams into higher value products, thus creating a path to viability for the biofuels industry are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A modular simulation package for fed-batch fermentation: penicillin production
TL;DR: In this paper, a simulation software based on a detailed unstructured model for penicillin production in a fed-batch fermentor has been developed, which can be used for both research and educational purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flux distributions in anaerobic, glucose-limited continuous cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
TL;DR: It was found that the accuracy of the measurements of CO2, ethanol, glucose, glycerol and protein was critical for the correct calculation of the flux distribution of the anaerobic metabolism of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aerobic nitrification-denitrification by heterotrophic Bacillus strains.
TL;DR: It has been found that the Bacillus strains were able to occur simultaneously aerobic nitrification/denitrification and the B3 process using the Bacilli strains seemed to possess some economic advantages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fermentative Utilization of Glycerol by Escherichia coli and Its Implications for the Production of Fuels and Chemicals
TL;DR: The utilization of glycerol metabolism in Escherichia coli had been thought to be restricted to respiratory conditions, but the utilization of this carbon source in the absence of electron acceptors is reported here.

Book
Chemical Reaction Engineering
TL;DR: An overview of Chemical Reaction Engineering is presented, followed by an introduction to Reactor Design, and a discussion of the Dispersion Model.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Maintenance Energy of Bacteria in Growing Cultures
TL;DR: From the laws of growth, a simple relation between the maintenance requirement, the growth yield and the growth rate is derived and is shown to be in good agreement with the available data.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Linear Steady‐State Treatment of Enzymatic Chains
TL;DR: A theoretical analysis of linear enzymatic chains is presented and three cardinal terms are proposed for the quantitative description of enzyme systems, including the effector strength, which defines the dependence of the velocity of an enzyme on the concentration of an effector.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward a science of metabolic engineering
TL;DR: Application of recombinant DNA methods to restructure metabolic networks can improve production of metabolite and protein products by altering pathway distributions and rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic control analysis: a survey of its theoretical and experimental development.
TL;DR: The discoveries of feedback inhibition, co-operativity and covalent modification in enzymes, and of mechanisms for the control of enzyme synthesis and degradation, have disclosed a repertoire of molecular effects that potentially alter the fluxes in metabolic pathways.
