I and i
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Hydrodeoxygenation of Guaiacol, A Surrogate of Lignin Pyrolysis Vapors, Over Iron Based Catalysts: Kinetics and Modeling of the Lignin to Aromatics Integrated Process
TL;DR: In this article, Guaiacol is used as a model compound to study the catalytic HDO over Fe/SiO2 catalyst and experiments were conducted in a fixed bed reactor operated at 673 K (1 atm) with a gas mixture that mimics the real gas composition from lignin pyrolysis.

A platform pathway for production of 3-hydroxyacids provides a biosynthetic route to 3-hydroxy-γ-butyrolactone
Collin H. Martin,Himanshu Hemant Dhamankar,Hsien-Chung Tseng,Micah Sheppard,Christopher R. Reisch,Kristala L. J. Prather +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a novel pathway was proposed to produce chiral 3-hydroxyacids, including 3,4-dihydroxybutyric acid, consisting of enzymes that condense two acyl-CoAs, stereospecifically reduce the resulting β-ketone and hydrolyze the CoA thioester to release the free acid.

Dehydration of Fermented Isobutanol for the Production of Renewable Chemicals and Fuels
TL;DR: In this paper, 2-methyl-1-propanol (isobutanol) is used directly as a biofuel or can be catalytically dehydrated to isobutylene, a platform molecule for synthesizing other fuels or chemicals.

Overexpression of NAD kinase in recombinant Escherichia coli harboring the phbCAB operon improves poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) production.
TL;DR: Results clearly showed that the overexpression of NAD kinase could be used to enhance the PHB synthesis, which is one of the most crucial factors influencing PHB production.

Crude glycerol as feedstock for polyhydroxyalkanoates production by mixed microbial cultures.
TL;DR: The fact that crude glycerol can be used to produce PHA without any pre-treatment step, makes the overall production process economically more competitive, reducing polymer final cost.
