Microbial cellulases have been receiving worldwide attention, as they have enormous
potential to process the most abundant cellulosic biomass on this planet and transform it into …

Cellulose, the major constituent of all plant materials and the most abundant organic
molecule on the Earth, is a linear biopolymer of glucose molecules, connected by β-1, 4 …

Home composting can be an effective way to reduce the volume of municipal solid waste.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Effective Microorganism™(EM) for the home …

This chapter discusses the characteristics, sources, production, and applications of
cellulase. Cellulases are increasingly being used for a large variety of industrial purposes …

The on-site production of cellulases is an important strategy for the development of
sustainable second-generation ethanol production processes. This study concerns the use …

Biorefineries, designed for the production of lignocellulose-based chemicals and fuels, are
receiving increasing attention from the public, governments, and industries. A major obstacle …

Aquaponics combines the advantages of aquaculture and hydroponics as it suits the urban
environment where a lack of agricultural land and water resources is observed. It is an …

Spent olive pomace from the two-phase extraction system of virgin olive oil and olive
pomace oil, is a major agro-industrial residue. Present study aimed at the valorization of …

An integrated process for xylooligosaccharides (XOs) and bioethanol production from
corncob was investigated. XOs were produced by a consecutive process of KOH treatment …

Degradation of cellulose by anaerobic microbial consortium is brought about either by an
exocellular process or by secretion of extracellular enzymes. In this work, a novel route for …
