Ethanol as an alternative fuel from agricultural, industrial and urban residues

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight on major agricultural, industrial and urban waste, which could be used for ethanol production in an ecofriendly and profitable manner, which will reduce dependency on foreign oil and remove disposal problem of wastes and make environment safe from pollution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of solid-state fermentation to food industry—A review

TL;DR: In this article, the application of SSF to the production of several metabolites relevant for the food processing industry, centred on flavors, enzymes (α-amylase, fructosyl transferase, lipase, pectinase), organic acids (lactic acid, citric acid) and xanthan gum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solid-State Fermentation Systems—An Overview

TL;DR: The relevance of applying SSF technology in the production of mycotoxins, biofuels, and biocontrol agents is discussed, and the need for adopting SSFtechnology in bioremediation of toxic compounds, biological detoxication of agro-industrial residues, andBiotransformation of agri-products and residues is emphasized.

Solid-state fermentation

TL;DR: Solid-state fermentation has emerged as a potential technology for the production of microbial products such as feed, fuel, food, industrial chemicals and pharmaceutical products and with continuity in current trends, SSF technology would be well developed at par with submerged fermentation technology in times to come.

Culture Method to Study Fungal Growth in Solid Fermentation

TL;DR: In this article, a new culture method was described to study the growth of Aspergillus niger on cassava meal in the solid state using preparations of the cooked starchy substrate as a homogeneous granulated product containing spores, salts and water.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biotechnology report. Solid state fermentations.

TL;DR: A unique method is described by which large yields of secondary metabolites arc produced on solid substrates using Aspergillus and Penicillium species, which prevents sporulation of the fungus and makes recovery of the product easier than in conventional liquid media.

Water and Microbial Stress

TL;DR: Those working in microbial physiology, soil microbiology, plant pathology, food preservation, biodegradation, and marine and lacustrine microbiology all find water and its biological availability to be an important factor influencing microbial activity and hence microbial ecology.
Book

Solid substrate cultivation
