The implementation of biorefineries for a cost-effective and sustainable production of energy
and chemicals from renewable carbon sources plays a fundamental role in the transition to a …

As a result of environmental concerns and the depletion of biomass assets, eco-friendly,
renewable biomass-based chemical extraction has recently received significant attention …

Traditional plastic products have caused serious environmental pollution due to difficulty to
be degraded in the natural environment. In the recent years, biodegradable plastics are …

Global warming is partly due to excessive carbon dioxide emissions, calling for methods to
capture carbon dioxide for conversion into value-added materials and fuels. Here we review …

Enzymatic carbon dioxide fixation is one of the most important metabolic reactions as it
allows the capture of inorganic carbon from the atmosphere and its conversion into organic …

Background The microbial production of succinic acid (SA) from renewable carbon sources
via the reverse TCA (rTCA) pathway is a process potentially accompanied by net-fixation of …

The parameterization of kinetic models requires measurement of fluxes and/or metabolite
levels for a base strain and a few genetic perturbations thereof. Unlike stoichiometric models …

The utilization of crude waste streams and the development of novel bioprocessing routes
are necessary in order to expand the industrial implementation of bio-based succinic acid …

Background Succinic acid (SA) is a crucial metabolic intermediate and platform chemical.
Development of biobased processes to achieve sustainable SA production has attracted …

The reliance of the transport sector on fossil fuels has led to increasing concerns related to
