The biomass to biofuels production process is green, sustainable, and an advanced
technique to resolve the current environmental issues generated from fossil fuels. The …

This review focuses on cellulases from Penicillium species with emphasis on cellulose
biodegradation; the most laborious step in the production of biofuels from lignocellulosic …

Novel laccases have promising and valuable applications in biorefineries. This investigation
documents, for the first time, the potential of depolymerising and repolymerising lignin by the …

The selection of improved producers among the huge number of variants in mutant libraries
is a key issue in filamentous fungi of industrial biotechnology. Here, we developed a droplet …

The combination of hydrothermal pretreatment followed by delignification with imidazole
was evaluated for the first time as a potential selective two-stage fractionation for elephant …

In this work, steam explosion was used a pretreatment method to improve the conversion of
elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) to cellulosic ethanol. This way, enzymatic …

The development of more productive strains of microorganisms and processes that increase
enzyme levels can contribute to the economically efficient production of second generation …

We investigated the conversion of hexoses and pentoses liberated from high osmotic
pressure soybean hull hydrolysate (SHH) into ethanol by immobilized Saccharomyces …

The study was aimed at developing lignocellulolytic strain capable of efficient hydrolysis of
mild alkali deacetylated (MAD) rice straw. The valorisation of lignin rich black liquor obtained …

Background The enzymatic degradation of lignocellulosic materials by fungal enzyme
systems has been extensively studied due to its effectiveness in the liberation of fermentable …
