Biological production of medium-chain carboxylates through chain elongation: An overview
TL;DR: In this paper , an extensive review demonstrated that anaerobic fermentation has great potential in achieving economical and sustainable medium chain carboxylates production from complex organic substrates, including organic waste streams, which would significantly broaden the application of MCCs, especially in the renewable energy field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Valorization of Vegetable Food Waste and By-Products Through Fermentation Processes
TL;DR: This minireview gives an overview of recent fermentation-based valorization strategies developed in the last 2 years and provides a detailed comparison of the fermentation conditions needed to produce specific bioactive compounds through a simple artificial neural network model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancement of hydrogen production and energy recovery through electro-fermentation from the dark fermentation effluent of food waste
TL;DR: In this article, a sequential dark fermentation and microbial electrochemical cell (MEC) process was evaluated for hydrogen production from food waste, and the hydrogen production, electrochemical performance and microbial community dynamics were investigated during startup of the MEC that was inoculated with different sludges.
Journal ArticleDOI
Opportunities and challenges in microbial medium chain fatty acids production from waste biomass.
TL;DR: In this article, the opportunities and challenges of medium chain fatty acid (MCFAs) production and application were analyzed. And the six key MCFAs production bottlenecks, corresponding research progresses, and possible solutions were analyzed, with the expectation of further boosting MCFA production by well distinguishing them.
