Biohydrogen production (BHP) can be achieved by direct or indirect biophotolysis, photo-
fermentation and dark fermentation, whereof only the latter does not require the input of light …

There is an increased interest in using thermophilic bacteria for the production of bioethanol
from complex lignocellulosic biomass due to their higher operating temperatures and broad …

Batch experiments were conducted to convert starch in wastewater into hydrogen at 55° C at
various wastewater pH (4.0–9.0) and starch concentrations (9.2–36.6 g/l). The maximum …

A thermophilic H2-producing bacterial strain was isolated from a biohydrogen reactor fed
with palm oil mill effluent (POME) and identified as Thermoanaerobacterium …

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic and fatal disease of unknown etiology;
however, apoptosis of lung alveolar epithelial cells plays a role in disease progression. This …

The fiber in corn kernels, currently unutilized in the corn to ethanol process, represents an
