Efficient co-fermentation of glucose and xylose remains a critical hurdle in second-generation bioethanol production. In this study, we evaluated two non-Saccharomyces yeasts—Wickerhamomyces anomalus UEMG-LF-Y2 Diutina rugosa UEMG-LF-Y4—under mixed-sugar conditions. D. exhibited superior metabolism ethanol productivity, achieving maximum volumetric productivity (QP) 0.55 g/L·h medium containing 20 g/L 40 xylose. Its highest yield (YP/S) reached 0.45 g EtOH/g sugar, comparable to results from engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains. By contrast, W. displayed lower yields (0.24–0.34 g/g) greater sensitivity catabolite repression induced by 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG). Xylose consumption exceeded 80% high-xylose media, while left residual under all tested A strong inverse correlation (r < −0.98) between accumulation uptake was observed, especially for anomalus, indicating ethanol-induced inhibition as key challenge. These findings highlight the potential robust platform lignocellulosic processes, whereas may benefit further metabolic or process optimizations. Future research should address tolerance, inhibitory byproducts, large-scale feasibility fully exploit these strains

NASICON-type titanium and zirconium phosphates doped with rare-earth cations, A0.33M2(PO4)3 (M = Ti, Zr; A Dy, Y, Yb), were synthesized using the sol–gel method investigated as catalysts for ethanol dehydration at 300–400 °C. The characterized via XRD, SEM, BET, FTIR spectroscopy. relationships between catalyst composition, acidity activity evaluated. Diethyl ether (DEE) formation is promoted by presence of (ZrP), while phosphate (TiP) catalyzes both ethylene diethyl (DEE). application Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy to analysis adsorbed C6H6 has revealed hydroxyl groups exhibiting varying degrees proton-donating mobility. This finding enabled correlation structure active sites process’s selectivity. results underscore key function OH-group localization framework geometry in control form-selective reactions.

Abstract As efforts intensify to address the environmental impact of agricultural waste, valorization Manihot esculenta peel (MEP) for sustainable engineering applications presents a unique opportunity repurpose this class waste achieve sustainability development goals while promoting socio-economic pollutant. The inherent properties MEP, such as its richness in carbohydrates and cellulose, make it useful raw material producing biofuels, bioethanols, biocomposites, other materials. Its resilience adverse conditions also makes MEP well-suited cultivation diverse agroecological settings, further enhancing appeal resource. While existing review articles provide valuable insights into utilization across various industries, they often overlook comprehensive applications, creating notable knowledge gap. Through systematic examination innovative approaches documented literature, research seeks bridge gap by elucidating strategies repurposing cassava materials mitigate pollution promote resource utilization. By synthesizing identifying key gaps, study advances understanding peel’s potential facilitates transition toward greener practices.

This study investigates the conversion of Opuntia ficus-indica waste (pears, peels, and seeds) into bioethanol. The research was done in two steps. first objective this work to evaluate optimal conditions autohydrolysis pretreatment (AP) on these lignocellulosic materials. Experimentation involved assessing various temperatures (121 °C, 150 180 °C) against a fixed solid-to-liquid ratio 1:10. Response Surface Methodology employed for optimization process. highest glucose saccharose concentrations, 0.251 mol/l 2.81 mol/l, respectively, were observed at °C over 15 min. second part focused fermenting pretreated biomass maximize ethanol concentration after autohydrolysis. Both water kefir Saccharomyces cerevisiae separately combined assess their effectiveness concentration. fermentation conducted 30 with solution-yeast ferment 70:30. most efficacious condition 121 min using kefir, which resulted an 16%. process highlights potential cactus pear cellulosic production, offering sustainable energy source solution agricultural management.
