Fermentation's pivotal role in shaping the future of plant-based foods: An integrative review of fermentation processes and their impact on sensory and health benefits

Applied Food Research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 4(2), С. 100468 - 100468

Опубликована: Авг. 9, 2024

Given the environmental, ethical, and food security challenges posed by conventional agriculture animal husbandry, transition towards sustainable systems is essential. Plant-based foods, especially those enhanced fermentation, present a viable solution. Fermentation reduces ecological footprint, aligns with ethical standards, enhances plant-based proteins' nutritional value sensory attributes, offering credible alternative to products. This paper explores fermentation's transformative role in developing meats, dairy, protein alternatives, emphasizing its benefits, including improved gut health through probiotics prebiotics. It also addresses such as producing undesirable by-products, potential risks, increased costs associated fermentation. Detailed examinations of specific fermentation processes—alcoholic, lactic acid, acetic propionic butyric acid—and their impact on enhancing value, digestibility, flavor foods are presented. Case studies from pioneering companies demonstrate technologies' practical applications market potential. Lastly, discusses future opportunities scaling up processes incorporating advanced biotechnological techniques further enhance sustainability outcomes.

Integrated biorefinery for bioethanol and succinic acid co-production from bread waste: Techno-economic feasibility and life cycle assessment

Energy Conversion and Management, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 301, С. 118033 - 118033

Опубликована: Янв. 6, 2024

In this study, an advanced decarbonization approach is presented for integrated biorefinery that co-produces bioethanol and succinic acid (SA) from bread waste (BW). The economic viability the environmental performance of proposed BW processing evaluated. Four distinctive scenarios were designed analysed, focusing on a plant capacity processes 100 metric tons (MT) daily. These encompass: (1) fermentation into bioethanol, paired with heat electricity co-generation stillage, (2) energy-optimized integration Scenario 1 using pinch technology, (3) co-production SA by exclusively utilizing fermentative CO2, (4) version 3 incorporates carbon capture (CC) flue gas, amplifying production. Scenarios 4 found to be economically more attractive better due SA. Particularly, emerged as superior, showcasing payback period 2.2 years, robust internal rate return (33% after tax), investment 32%, remarkable net present value 163 M$. Sensitivity analysis underscored decisive influence fixed capital product pricing outcomes. terms impact, outperformed other across all impact categories, where global warming potential, abiotic depletion (fossil fuels), human toxicity potential most influential categories (−0.344 kg CO2-eq, −16.2 MJ, −0.3 1,4-dichlorobenzene (DB)-eq, respectively). Evidently, CC unit gas in substantially enhances both returns sustainability biorefinery.

A biobased mixed metal oxide catalyst for biodiesel production from waste cooking oil: reaction conditions modeling, optimization and sensitivity analysis study

Journal of Engineering Research, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Март 1, 2024

This study assessed the utilization of a heterogeneous catalyst derived from waste marble tiles and cow horn for cooking oil-derived biodiesel synthesis. The synthesized composite was prepared through sequential calcination wet impregnation. its precursors were characterized to analyze their composition, structural, surface properties. production process modeled optimized via response methodology (RSM) artificial neural networks (ANN). Characterization oil revealed suitability in production. had area 301.510 m2/g, while pore volume diameter 0.165 cm3/g 2.110 nm respectively, which contributed optimum yield 98% at reaction time 119.92 min, concentration 5.12 wt%, temperature 74.86 °C, methanol-to-oil ratio 11.43:1. reusable up seven cycles retaining significant activity. sample properties that met standards. RSM ANN demonstrated adequate representation as shown by high R2 values although superior since it higher (0.9993) adjusted (0.9977) values. Global sensitivity analysis results showed most important input variable. work has provided insights into valorization sustainable catalysis.

Phylogenomics and genetic analysis of solvent-producing Clostridium species

Scientific Data, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11(1)

Опубликована: Май 1, 2024

Abstract The genus Clostridium is a large and diverse group within the Bacillota (formerly Firmicutes), whose members can encode useful complex traits such as solvent production, gas-fermentation, lignocellulose breakdown. We describe 270 genome sequences of solventogenic clostridia from comprehensive industrial strain collection assembled by Professor David Jones that includes 194 C. beijerinckii , 57 saccharobutylicum 4 saccharoperbutylacetonicum 5 butyricum 7 acetobutylicum 3 tetanomorphum genomes. report methods, analyses characterization for phylogeny, key attributes, core biosynthetic genes, secondary metabolites, plasmids, prophage/CRISPR diversity, cellulosomes quorum sensing 6 species. expanded genomic data described here will facilitate engineering solvent-producing well non-model microorganisms with innately desirable traits. Sequences could be applied in conventional platform biocatalysts yeast or Escherichia coli enhanced chemical production. Recently, gene this were used to engineer autoethanogenum gas-fermenting autotrophic acetogen, continuous acetone isopropanol butanol, butanoic acid, hexanol hexanoic acid
