Studies on delignification and inhibitory enzyme kinetics of alkaline peroxide pre-treated pine and deodar saw dust
Baksi, Sibashish; Sarkar, Ujjaini; Saha, Sudeshna; Ball, Akash K.; Kuniyal, Jagdish Chandra; Wentzel, Alexander; Birgen, Cansu; Preisig, Heinz A.; Wittgens, Bernd; Markussen, Sidsel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Delignification of lignocellulosic biomass by alkaline peroxide pre-treatment is a preliminary important step for an overall biomass fractionation process. In the present work, saw dusts are pre-treated by aqueous alkaline ... -
A unified and simple medium for growing model methanogens
Ngoumelah, Daniel Dzofou; Harnisch, Falk; Sulheim, Snorre; Heggeset, Tonje Marita Bjerkan; Aune, Ingvild Haugnes; Wentzel, Alexander; Kretzschmar, Jörg (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Apart from their archetypic use in anaerobic digestion (AD) methanogenic archaea are targeted for a wide range of applications. Using different methanogenic archaea for one specific application requires the optimization ... -
