Medium chain carboxylates (MCCs) have wide applications in various industries, but the
traditional MCCs production methods are costly and unsustainable. Anaerobic fermentation …

Alternative chemicals to diverse fossil-fuel-based products is urgently needed to mitigate the
adverse impacts of fossil fuel depletion on human development. To this end, researchers …

This review aims to provide a holistic synopsis of the current state of the art knowledge on
caproic acid production via anaerobic fermentation from the perspectives of microbes and …

The carboxylate platform employs a diverse microbial consortium of anaerobes in which the
methanogens are inhibited. Nearly all biomass components are digested to a mixture of C1 …

Medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) that produced from affordable waste biomass via chain
elongation (CE) technology are recognized as the potential alternatives to part fossil-derived …

Carbohydrate-rich waste streams can be used for bioproduction of medium-chain carboxylic
acids (MCCA) such as caproic acid. The carbohydrates in these streams can be converted to …

Ethanol and lactate are considered suitable electron donors (EDs) for chain elongation (CE);
however, their respective shortcomings still limit the substrate conversion ratio and medium …

The production of biochemicals from renewables through biorefinery processes is important
to reduce the anthropogenic impact on the environment. Chain elongation processes based …

The single bioprocess approach has certain limitations in terms of process efficiency,
product synthesis, and effective resource utilization. Integrated or combined bioprocessing …

The effects of pH on the production of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and the evolution of
microbial community structure were studied via anaerobic fermentation of Chinese cabbage …
