Recent advances in bio-based production of top platform chemical, succinic acid: an alternative to conventional chemistry. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS 2024; 17:72. [PMID: 38811976 PMCID: PMC11137917 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-024-02508-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024]
Abstract
Succinic acid (SA) is one of the top platform chemicals with huge applications in diverse sectors. The presence of two carboxylic acid groups on the terminal carbon atoms makes SA a highly functional molecule that can be derivatized into a wide range of products. The biological route for SA production is a cleaner, greener, and promising technological option with huge potential to sequester the potent greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide. The recycling of renewable carbon of biomass (an indirect form of CO2), along with fixing CO2 in the form of SA, offers a carbon-negative SA manufacturing route to reduce atmospheric CO2 load. These attractive attributes compel a paradigm shift from fossil-based to microbial SA manufacturing, as evidenced by several commercial-scale bio-SA production in the last decade. The current review article scrutinizes the existing knowledge and covers SA production by the most efficient SA producers, including several bacteria and yeast strains. The review starts with the biochemistry of the major pathways accumulating SA as an end product. It discusses the SA production from a variety of pure and crude renewable sources by native as well as engineered strains with details of pathway/metabolic, evolutionary, and process engineering approaches for enhancing TYP (titer, yield, and productivity) metrics. The review is then extended to recent progress on separation technologies to recover SA from fermentation broth. Thereafter, SA derivatization opportunities via chemo-catalysis are discussed for various high-value products, which are only a few steps away. The last two sections are devoted to the current scenario of industrial production of bio-SA and associated challenges, along with the author's perspective.

Abstract
Dicarboxylic acid (DCA) is a multifaceted chemical intermediate, recoursed to produce many industrially important products such as adhesives, plasticizers, lubricants, polymers, etc. To bypass the shortcomings of the chemical methods of synthesis of DCA and to reduce fossil fuel footprints, bio-based synthesis is gaining attention. In pursuit of an eco-friendly sustainable alternative method of DCA production, microbial cell factories, and renewable organic resources are gaining popularity. Among the plethora of microbial communities, yeast is being favored industrially compared to bacterial fermentation due to its hyperosmotic and low pH tolerance and flexibility for gene manipulations. By application of rapidly evolving genetic manipulation techniques, the bio-based DCA production could be made more precise and economical. To bridge the gap between supply and demand of DCA, many strategies are employed to improve the fermentation. This review briefly outlines the advancements in DCA production using yeast cell factories with the exemplification of strain improvement strategies.

Abstract
Two new water-soluble cellulose derivatives were prepared by a two-step transformation with 1,3-propane sultone, followed by either maleic or succinic anhydride, thereby converting cellulose into a more easily processable form. It was found that the solubility was dependent on both the degree of substitution and the chemical properties of the substituents. The water-soluble cellulose has a molecular weight greater than 100 000 g mol-1 and both the morphology and molecular weight can be tuned by varying the reaction conditions. Furthermore, the flexible, two-step nature of the process allows for expansion of this methodology in order to prepare cellulose analogues for different applications.

Abstract
Klebsiella oxytoca KC004 (ΔadhEΔpta-ackAΔldhAΔbudABΔpflB) was engineered to enhance succinate production. The strain exhibited poor growth without succinate production due to its deficiencies in ATP production and NADH reoxidation. To overcome obstacles, evolutionary adaptation with over 6,000 generations of growth-based selection was conducted. Under anaerobic conditions, enhanced productions of ATP for growth and succinate for NADH reoxidation by the evolved KC004-TF160 strain were coupled to an increased transcript of PEP carboxykinase (pck) while those of genes in the oxidative branch of TCA cycle (gltA, acnAB, and icd), and pyruvate and acetate metabolisms (pykA, acs, poxB and tdcD) were alleviated. The expression of pyruvate dehydrogenase repressor (pdhR) decreased whereas threonine decarboxylase (tdcE) increased. KC004-TF160 produced succinate at 84 g/L (0.84 g/g, 79 % theoretical maximum). KC004-TF160 produced succinate at 0.87 g/g non-pretreated sugarcane molasses without addition of nutrients and buffers. KC004-TF160 may be a microbial platform for commercial production of bio-succinate.

Abstract
Pinecone substrate offers an eco-friendly and cost-effective alternative for cultivating edible fungi. This pioneering study explores the 94 amino acids metabolic profiles of Auricularia cornea grown on various pinecone substrates. To our knowledge, this is the first study of quantify A. cornea on an oleaginous substrate (pinecone) using targeted LC-MS /MS-based metabolomics approaches. Five different pinecone substrate percentages (0%, 7%, 14%, 21%, and 28% respectively) were used for A. cornea culture, and the resulting fruiting bodies were analyzed for amino acids metabolic profiles. Detected 79 amino acids metabolites, 15 undetected. High contents of succinic-acid and γ-aminobutyric acid. Thirty-three amino acid metabolites showed significant differences between groups, primarily related to protein synthesis. KEGG analysis revealed that seven major metabolic pathways were significantly enriched. The findings provide valuable insights into the metabolite composition of A. cornea grown on a pinecone substrate, potentially contribute to the understanding of its nutritional and medicinal properties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The promising yet barely investigated anaerobic species Phocaeicola vulgatus (formerly Bacteroides vulgatus) plays a vital role for human gut health and effectively produces organic acids. Among them is succinate, a building block for high-value-added chemicals. Cultivating anaerobic bacteria is challenging, and a detailed understanding of P. vulgatus growth and metabolism is required to improve succinate production. One significant aspect is the influence of different gas concentrations. CO2 is required for the growth of P. vulgatus. However, it is a greenhouse gas that should not be wasted. Another highly interesting aspect is the sensitivity of P. vulgatus towards O2. In this work, the effects of varying concentrations of both gases were studied in the in-house developed Respiratory Activity MOnitoring System (RAMOS), which provides online monitoring of CO2, O2, and pressure under gassed conditions. The RAMOS was combined with a gas mixing system to test CO2 and O2 concentrations in a range of 0.25-15.0 vol% and 0.0-2.5 vol%, respectively. RESULTS Changing the CO2 concentration in the gas supply revealed a CO2 optimum of 3.0 vol% for total organic acid production and 15.0 vol% for succinate production. It was demonstrated that the organic acid composition changed depending on the CO2 concentration. Furthermore, unrestricted growth of P. vulgatus up to an O2 concentration of 0.7 vol% in the gas supply was proven. The viability decreased rapidly at concentrations larger than or equal to 1.3 vol% O2. CONCLUSIONS The study showed that P. vulgatus requires little CO2, has a distinct O2 tolerance and is therefore well suited for industrial applications.

Abstract
Lignin is the second most abundant polymer in nature, which is also widely generated during biomass fractionation in lignocellulose biorefineries. At present, most of technical lignin is simply burnt for energy supply although it represents the richest natural source of aromatics, and thus it is a promising feedstock for generation of value-added compounds. Lignin is heterogeneous in composition and recalcitrant to degradation, with this substantially hampering its use. Notably, microbes have evolved particular enzymes and specialized metabolic pathways to degrade this polymer and metabolize its various aromatic components. In recent years, novel pathways have been designed allowing to establish engineered microbial cell factories able to efficiently funnel the lignin degradation products into few metabolic intermediates, representing suitable starting points for the synthesis of a variety of valuable molecules. This review focuses on recent success cases (at the laboratory/pilot scale) based on systems metabolic engineering studies aimed at generating value-added and specialty chemicals, with much emphasis on the production of cis,cis-muconic acid, a building block of recognized industrial value for the synthesis of plastic materials. The upgrade of this global waste stream promises a sustainable product portfolio, which will become an industrial reality when economic issues related to process scale up will be tackled.

Abstract
The high production of acetic acid (AC) as a by-product leads to difficult separation and purification of succinic acid (SA) and increases production costs in SA fermentation by Actinobacillus succinogenes. NaHSO3 as a steering agent was used to reduce AC production. Herein, the optimum fermentation conditions were achieved by single-factor and orthogonal tests as follows: glucose 60 g/L; MgCO3 60 g/L; NaHSO3 0.15% (w/v); and NaHSO3 addition time, 8 h after inoculation. After optimization, the SA and AC contents were 44.42 and 5.73 g/L. The SA improved by 100.72%, the AC decreased by 21.18% compared with the unfermented. The acetate kinase activity decreased by 14.36% and acetyl-CoA content improved by 97.55% in the group of NaHSO3 addition compared with control check (CK). The mechanism of NaHSO3 is formation acetaldehyde-sodium bisulfite compound and reduction the activity of acetate kinase. These findings indicated a new way of using NaHSO3 as a steering agent to reduce AC generation and may help promote the development of SA industrial production.

Abstract
Value-added utilization of pineapple waste is very import for the food industry and environmental protection. In this study, whey protein (2.6%, w/w) was added to pineapple waste in order to make up for the protein deficiency of the raw material and give the final products better flavor characteristics. Autochthonous Lactococcus lactis LA5 and Hanseniaspora opuntiae SA2 were used for the co-inoculation of pineapple by-products; during fermentation, the metabolite profiling and microbial community dynamics were investigated. Results showed that the contents of organic acids, total FAAs, total phenolic compounds and flavonoids significantly increased with fermentation, and 152 kinds of peptides were identified in the final products. Relevant analyses demonstrated that dominant strains including Lactococcus lactis, Hanseniaspora and Saccharomyces not only significantly promoted the accumulation of organic acids, total phenols and other active substances, but also inhibited the growth of pathogenic bacteria and further influenced the fermentation process of pineapple waste.

Abstract
Currently, the biological production of L-malic acid (L-MA) is mainly based on the fermentation of filamentous fungi at near-neutral pH, but this process requires large amounts of neutralizing agents, resulting in the generation of waste salts when free acid is obtained in the downstream process, and the environmental hazards associated with the waste salts limit the practical application of this process. To produce L-MA in a more environmentally friendly way, we metabolically engineered the acid-tolerant yeast Pichia kudriavzevii and achieved efficient production of L-MA through low pH fermentation. First, an initial L-MA-producing strain that relies on the reductive tricarboxylic acid (rTCA) pathway was constructed. Subsequently, the L-MA titer and yield were further increased by fine-tuning the flux between the pyruvate and oxaloacetate nodes. In addition, we found that the insufficient supply of NADH for cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase (MDH) hindered the L-MA production at low pH, which was resolved by overexpressing the soluble pyridine nucleotide transhydrogenase SthA from E. coli. Transcriptomic and metabolomic data showed that overexpression of EcSthA contributed to the activation of the pentose phosphate pathway and provided additional reducing power for MDH by converting NADPH to NADH. Furthermore, overexpression of EcSthA was found to help reduce the accumulation of the by-product pyruvate but had no effect on the accumulation of succinate. In microaerobic batch fermentation in a 5-L fermenter, the best strain, MA009-10-URA3 produced 199.4 g/L L-MA with a yield of 0.94 g/g glucose (1.27 mol/mol), with a productivity of 1.86 g/L/h. The final pH of the fermentation broth was approximately 3.10, meaning that the amount of neutralizer used was reduced by more than 50% compared to the common fermentation processes using filamentous fungi. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the efficient bioproduction of L-MA at low pH and represents the highest yield of L-MA in yeasts reported to date.

Abstract
The chemical industry aims to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) by adopting biomass as a renewable carbon feedstock. However, biomass is a limited resource. Thus, biomass should preferentially be used in processes that most reduce GHG emissions. However, a lack of harmonization in current life cycle assessment (LCA) literature makes the identification of efficient processes difficult. In this study, 46 fermentation processes from literature are harmonized and analyzed on the basis of their GHG reduction compared with fossil benchmarks. The GHG reduction per amount of sugar used is defined as Sugar-to-X efficiency and used as a performance metric in the following. The analyzed processes span a wide range of Sugar-to-X efficiencies from -3.3 to 6.7 kg of CO2 equiv per kg of sugar input. Diverting sugar from bioethanol production for fuels to the fermentation and bioconversion processes with the highest Sugar-to-X efficiency could reduce the chemical industry's GHG emissions by an additional 130 MT of CO2 equiv without requiring any more biobased feedstocks.

Abstract
Downstream processing of biotechnologically produced carboxylic acids, such as succinic acid, poses environmental and economic challenges. Conventional downstream processes cause large amounts of waste salts, which have to be purified or disposed of. Therefore, lean and waste-free downstream processes are necessary for the biotechnological production of succinic acid. Electrochemical downstream processes gain especially significant attention due to low chemical consumption and waste reduction. This work presents the pH-dependent solid-liquid equilibrium of succinic acid, a prototype for electrochemical pH-shift crystallization processes, and its characterization. Based on the supersaturation, energy consumption, and electrochemical protonation efficiency the proposed electrochemical pH-shift crystallization is evaluated. This evaluation highlights the potential of the proposed electrochemical crystallization processes as waste-free and economically attractive processes for bio-based succinic acid production.

Abstract
Biodegradable polymers are promoted as promising alternatives for conventional non-degradable plastics, but they may also negatively impact soil ecosystems. Here, we estimated the effects of biodegradable (polylactide (PLA) and polybutylene succinate (PBS)) and non-biodegradable (polyethylene (PE) and polystyrene (PS)) microplastics at a concentration of 1% (w/w) on dissolved organic matter (DOM) in two soil types, a black soil (BS) and a yellow soil (YS), by using fluorescence excitation-emission matrix spectroscopy and ultrahigh-resolution Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS). PBS significantly increased the contents of soil dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and the relative intensities of protein-like components. The turnover rates of soil DOM were statistically higher in PBS treatments (0.106 and 0.196, p < 0.001) than those in other microplastic groups. The FT-ICR-MS results indicated that more labile-active DOM molecules were preferentially obtained in biodegradable microplastic treatments, which may be attributed to the polymer degradation. The conventional microplastics showed no significant effects on the optical characteristics but changed the molecular compositions of the soil DOM. More labile DOM molecules were observed in BS samples treated with PE compared to the control, while the conventional microplastics decreased the DOM lability in YS soil. The distinct priming effects of plastic-leached DOM may trigger the DOM changes in different soils. This study provided important information for further understanding the impact of microplastics on soil carbon processes.

Abstract
A new functional composite was synthesized in this study comprising magnetic-cored dendrimer (MCD) modified with citric acid (CA), succinic acid (SA), and vanillic acid (VA) terminal groups. The CA-MCD, SA-MCD, and VA-MCD exhibited average particle size of 8-18 nm and superparamagnetic behavior. Adsorption potential of the composite was assessed by monitoring methylene blue (MB) removal from contaminated water. The CA-MCD attained adsorption equilibrium in 30 min while SA-MCD and VA-MCD achieved equilibrium in 60 min. The Langmuir model better fitted the adsorption results than the Freundlich model, indicating a monolayer mode of MB adsorption on the composite. Maximum adsorption capacity of CA-MCD, SA-MCD, and VA-MCD was 216.30 mg/g, 184.29 mg/g, and 196.58 mg/g, respectively. The CA-MCD exhibited best adsorption performance by removing 99% MB at pH = 11. In reusability experiments, the CA-MCD, SA-MCD, and VA-MCD maintained over 90% MB adsorption for both 15 mg/L and 50 mg/L solutions in the third cycle. Overall, the organic acid-functionalized MCDs with high adsorption capacity and reusability potential showed utility for practical application for wastewater decontamination.

Abstract
Succinic acid has attracted much interest as a key platform chemical that can be obtained in high titers from biomass through sustainable fermentation processes, thus boosting the bioeconomy as a critical production strategy for the future. After several years of development of the production of succinic acid, many studies on lab or pilot scale production have been reported. The relevant experimental data reveal underlying physical and chemical dynamic phenomena. To take advantage of this vast, but disperse, kinetic information, a number of mathematical kinetic models of the unstructured non-segregated type have been proposed in the first place. These relatively simple models feature critical aspects of interest for the design, control, optimization and operation of this key bioprocess. This review includes a detailed description of the phenomena involved in the bioprocesses and how they reflect on the most important and recent models based on macroscopic and metabolic chemical kinetics, and in some cases even coupling mass transport.

Abstract
Poly(butylene succinate-co-terephthalate) (PBST) copolyester, is a new type of biodegradable synthetic polymer material that has emerged in recent years, but it cannot meet the market requirements, because of its low strength. The high-strength and high-modulus polylactic acid (PLA) was blended with PBST to increase its strength, and the chain extender ADR-4370 was used to modify PBST/PLA films by reaction and compatibilization. Compared with the 80/20 wt% PBST/PLA films, the tensile strength after modification with 0.3 wt% ADR was increased by 21.8 % and 44.3 % in the machine direction (MD) and in the transverse direction (TD), respectively. The Water Vapor Permeability (WVP) was decreased from 10.0 × 10-14 to 3.09 × 10-14 g·cm/cm2·s·Pa. The compatibilization mechanism was studied by gel permeation chromatography, infrared spectroscopy, dynamic mechanical analysis, rheological analysis, and other characterization methods. The formation of the copolymer PLA-g-PBST is the most important factor to improve the compatibility of the system and the mechanical properties of the films.

1,5-Benzothiazepine Derivatives: Green Synthesis, In Silico and In Vitro Evaluation as Anticancer Agents. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27123757.

Abstract
Considering the importance of benzothiazepine pharmacophore, an attempt was carried out to synthesize novel 1,5-benzothiazepine derivatives using polyethylene glycol-400 (PEG-400)-mediated pathways. Initially, different chalcones were synthesized and then subjected to a cyclization step with benzothiazepine in the presence of bleaching clay and PEG-400. PEG-400-mediated synthesis resulted in a yield of more than 95% in less than an hour of reaction time. Synthesized compounds 2a–2j were investigated for their in vitro cytotoxic activity. Moreover, the same compounds were subjected to systematic in silico screening for the identification of target proteins such as human adenosine kinase, glycogen synthase kinase-3β, and human mitogen-activated protein kinase 1. The compounds showed promising results in cytotoxicity assays; among the tested compounds, 2c showed the most potent cytotoxic activity in the liver cancer cell line Hep G-2, with an IC50 of 3.29 ± 0.15 µM, whereas the standard drug IC50 was 4.68 ± 0.17 µM. In the prostate cancer cell line DU-145, the compounds displayed IC50 ranges of 15.42 ± 0.16 to 41.34 ± 0.12 µM, while the standard drug had an IC50 of 21.96 ± 0.15 µM. In terms of structural insights, the halogenated phenyl substitution on the second position of benzothiazepine was found to significantly improve the biological activity. This characteristic feature is supported by the binding patterns on the selected target proteins in docking simulations. In this study, 1,5-benzothiazepines have been identified as potential anticancer agents which can be further exploited for the development of more potent derivatives.

Abstract
The production of succinic acid from fermentation is a promising approach for obtaining building-block chemicals from renewable sources. However, the limited bio-succinic yield from fermentation and the complexity of purification has been making the bio-succinic acid production not competitive with petroleum-based succinic acid. Membrane electrolysis has been identified to be a promising technology in both production and separation stages of fermentation processes. This work focuses on identifying the key operational parameters affecting the performance of the electrolytic cell for separating succinic acid from fermentation broth through an anionic exchange membrane. Indeed, while efforts are mainly focused on studying the performance of an integrated fermenter-electrolytic cell system, a lack of understanding remains in how to tune the electrolytic cell and which main parameters are involved. The results show that a single electrolytic cell of operating volume 250 mL was able to extract up to 3 g L−1 h−1 of succinic acid. The production of OH− ions by water electrolysis can act as a buffer for the fermenter and it could be tuned as a function of the extraction rate. Furthermore, as the complexity of the solution in terms of the quantity and composition of the ions increased, the energy required for the separation process decreased.

Abstract
The recurrent environmental and economic issues associated with the diminution of fossil fuels are the main impetus towards the conversion of agriculture, aquaculture and shellfish biomass and the wastes into alternative commodities in a sustainable approach. In this review, the recent progress on recovering and processing these biomass and waste feedstocks to produce a variety of value-added products via various valorisation technologies, including hydrolysis, extraction, pyrolysis, and chemical modifications are presented, analysed, and discussed. These technologies have gained widespread attention among researchers, industrialists and decision makers alike to provide markets with bio-based chemicals and materials at viable prices, leading to less emissions of CO2 and sustainable management of these resources. In order to echo the thriving research, development and innovation, bioresources and biomass from various origins were reviewed including agro-industrial, herbaceous, aquaculture, shellfish bioresources and microorganisms that possess a high content of starch, cellulose, lignin, lipid and chitin. Additionally, a variety of technologies and processes enabling the conversion of such highly available bioresources is thoroughly analysed, with a special focus on recent studies on designing, optimising and even innovating new processes to produce biochemicals and biomaterials. Despite all these efforts, there is still a need to determine the more cost-effective and efficient technologies to produce bio-based commodities.

Abstract
The aim of this article was to generate a framework of bio-based economy by an effective utilization of biomass from the perspectives of agriculture for developing potential end bio-based products (e.g. pharmaceuticals, active pharmaceutical ingredients). Our discussion is also extended to the conservatory ways of bioenergy along with development of bio-based products and biofuels. This review article further showcased the fundamental principles for producing these by-products. Thereby, the necessity of creating these products is to be efficaciously utilization by small-scale farmers that can aid the local needs for bio-based materials and energy. Concurrently, the building up of small markets will open up the avenues and linkages for bigger markets. In nutshell, the aim of the review is to explore the pathway of the biotechnological approaches so that less chosen producers and underdeveloped areas can be allied so that pressure on the systems of biomass production can be relaxed.

Abstract
Chitosan/glycerophosphate thermosensitive hydrogel crosslinked physically was a potential drug delivery carrier; however, long gelation time limits its application. Here, chitosan-amino acid (AA) thermosensitive hydrogels were prepared from chitosan (CS), αβ-glycerophosphate (GP), and l-lysine (Lys) or l-glutamic acid (Glu). The prepared CS-Lys/GP and CS-Glu/GP hydrogel showed good thermosensitivity and could form gels in a short time. The optimal parameters of CS-Lys/GP hydrogel were that the concentration of CS-Lys was 2.5%, the ratio of CS/Lys was 3.5/1.0, the ratio of CS-Lys/GP was 4.5/1.0. The optimal parameters of CS-Glu/GP hydrogel were that the concentration of CS-Glu was 3.0%, the ratio of CS/Glu was 2.0/1.0, and the ratio of CS-Glu/GP was 4.0/1.5. Chitosan-amino acid (CS-AA) thermosensitive hydrogel had a three-dimensional network structure. The addition of model drug tinidazole (TNZ) had no obvious effect on the structure of hydrogel. The results of infrared spectroscopy showed that there were hydrogen bonds between amino acids and chitosan. In vitro release results showed that CS-Lys/GP and CS-Glu/GP thermosensitive hydrogels had sustained release effects. Thus, the chitosan-amino acid thermosensitive hydrogels hold great potential as a sustained release drug delivery system.

Valorization of Spent Coffee Grounds as Precursors for Biopolymers and Composite Production. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14030437.

Abstract
Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are a current subject in many works since coffee is the second most consumed beverage worldwide; however, coffee generates a high amount of waste (SCG) and can cause environmental problems if not discarded properly. Therefore, several studies on SCG valorization have been published, highlighting its waste as a valuable resource for different applications, such as biofuel, energy, biopolymer precursors, and composite production. This review provides an overview of the works using SCG as biopolymer precursors and for polymer composite production. SCG are rich in carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and minerals. In particular, carbohydrates (polysaccharides) can be extracted and fermented to synthesize lactic acid, succinic acid, or polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). On the other hand, it is possible to extract the coffee oil and to synthesize PHA from lipids. Moreover, SCG have been successfully used as a filler for composite production using different polymer matrices. The results show the reasonable mechanical, thermal, and rheological properties of SCG to support their applications, from food packaging to the automotive industry.

BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS AND BIOPRODUCTS 2022; 15:9. [PMID: 35418147 PMCID: PMC8767706 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-022-02106-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Napier grass biomass can be hydrolyzed mainly containing glucose and xylose after alkaline pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis. This biomass can be fermented using Actinobacillus succinogenes to produce succinic acid. The yield of succinic acid was 0.58 g/g. Because metabolizing xylose could produce more acetic acid, this yield of succinic acid was lower than that achieved using glucose as the sole carbon source. RESULTS The addition of glycerol as a fermentation substrate to Napier grass hydrolysate increased the reducing power of the hydrolysate, which not only increased the production of succinic acid but also reduced the formation of undesirable acetic acid in bacterial cells. At a hydrolysate:glycerol ratio of 10:1, the succinic acid yield reached 0.65 g/g. The succinic acid yield increased to 0.88 g/g when a 1:1 ratio of hydrolysate:glycerol was used. For the recovery of succinic acid from the fermentation broth, an outside-in module of an ultrafiltration membrane was used to remove bacterial cells. Air sparging at the feed side with a flow rate of 3 L/min increased the filtration rate. When the air flow rate was increased from 0 to 3 L/min, the average filtration rate increased from 25.0 to 45.7 mL/min, which corresponds to an increase of 82.8%. The clarified fermentation broth was then electrodialized to separate succinate from other contaminated ions. After electrodialysis, the acid products were concentrated through water removal, decolorized through treatment with activated carbon, and precipitated to obtain a purified product. CONCLUSIONS The yield of succinic acid was increased by adding glycerol to the hydrolysate of Napier grass. The downstream processing consisting of ultrafiltration membrane separation and single-stage electrodialysis was effective for product separation and purification. An overall recovery yield of 74.7% ± 4.5% and a purity of 99.4% ± 0.1% were achieved for succinic acid.

Abstract
Though carbon catabolite repression (CCR) has been intensively studied in some more characterised organisms, there is a lack of information of CCR in thermophiles. In this work, CCR in the thermophile, Parageobacillus thermoglucosidasius DSM 2542 has been studied during growth on pentose sugars in the presence of glucose. Physiological studies under fermentative conditions revealed a loosely controlled CCR when DSM 2542 was grown in minimal medium supplemented with a mixture of glucose and xylose. This atypical CCR pattern was also confirmed by studying xylose isomerase expression level by qRT-PCR. Fortuitously, the pheB gene, which encodes catechol 2, 3-dioxygenase was found to have a cre site highly similar to the consensus catabolite-responsive element (cre) at its 3' end and was used to confirm that expression of pheB from a plasmid was under stringent CCR control. Bioinformatic analysis suggested that the CCR regulation of xylose metabolism in P. thermoglucosidasius DSM 2542 might occur primarily via control of expression of pentose transporter operons. Relaxed control of sugar utilization might reflect a lower affinity of the CcpA-HPr (Ser46-P) or CcpA-Crh (Ser46-P) complexes to the cre(s) in these operons.

Abstract
The results of comprehensive studies on accelerated (artificial) ageing and biodegradation of polymer biocomposites on PBS matrix filled with raw wheat bran (WB) are presented in this paper. These polymer biocomposites are intended for the manufacture of goods, in particular disposable packaging and disposable utensils, which decompose naturally under the influence of biological agents. The effects of wheat bran content within the range of 10–50 wt.% and extruder screw speed of 50–200 min−1 during the production of biocomposite pellets on the resistance of the products to physical, chemical, and biological factors were evaluated. The research included the determination of the effect of artificial ageing on the changes of structural and thermal properties by infrared spectra (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). They showed structural changes—disruption of chains within the ester bond, which occurred in the composition with 50% bran content as early as after 250 h of accelerated ageing. An increase in the degree of crystallinity with ageing was also found to be as high as 48% in the composition with 10% bran content. The temperature taken at the beginning of weight loss of the compositions studied was also lowered, even by 30 °C at the highest bran content. The changes of mechanical properties of biocomposite samples were also investigated. These include: hardness, surface roughness, transverse shrinkage, weight loss, and optical properties: colour and gloss. The ageing hardness of the biocomposite increased by up to 12%, and the surface roughness (Ra) increased by as much as 2.4 µm at the highest bran content. It was also found that ageing causes significant colour changes of the biocomposition (ΔE = 7.8 already at 10% bran content), and that the ageing-induced weight loss of the biocomposition of 0.31–0.59% is lower than that of the samples produced from PBS alone (1.06%). On the other hand, the transverse shrinkage of moldings as a result of ageing turned out to be relatively small, at 0.05%–0.35%. The chemical resistance of biocomposites to NaOH and HCl as well as absorption of polar and non-polar liquids (oil and water) were also determined. Biodegradation studies were carried out under controlled conditions in compost and weight loss of the tested compositions was determined. The weight of samples made from PBS alone after 70 days of composting decreased only by 4.5%, while the biocomposition with 10% bran content decreased by 15.1%, and with 50% bran, by as much as 68.3%. The measurements carried out showed a significant influence of the content of the applied lignocellulosic fillers (LCF) in the form of raw wheat bran (WB) on the examined properties of the biocompositions and the course of their artificial ageing and biodegradation. Within the range under study, the screw speed of the extruder during the production of biocomposite pellets did not show any significant influence on most of the studied properties of the injection mouldings produced from it.

Abstract
This work aimed to study the efficiency of polyvinyl-alcohol-immobilized Actinobacillus succinogenes ATCC55618 for succinic acid (SA) production. Batch fermentation (pH 7, 45% CO2 gas at 0.04 vvm) using glucose (40 g L-1) resulted in SA titer, 26.7 g L-1; productivity, 3.33 g L-1h-1; yield, 0.621 g g-1. Fed-batch mode with cyclic extrication of SA from the medium markedly enhanced the yield to 0.699 g g-1 and concentration to 59.5 g L-1. Batch fermentation using sugars derived from Chlorella vulgaris ESP-31 without yeast extract gave a SA productivity, concentration, and yield of 1.82 g L-1h-1, 36.1 g L-1, and 0.720 g g-1, respectively. Furthermore, continuous fermentation (at 6 h HRT) with microalgal sugar improved the productivity and yield to 3.53 g L-1h-1 and 0.62 g g-1, respectively, which is comparable to those obtained by using glucose. This study reports the highest productivity for SA fermentation using microalgae-derived sugars.

Abstract
The paper presents a procedure of the manufacturing and complex analysis of the properties of injection mouldings made of polymeric composites based on the poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) matrix with the addition of a natural filler in the form of wheat bran (WB). The scope of the research included measurements of processing shrinkage and density, analysis of the chemical structure, measurements of the thermal and thermo-mechanical properties (Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TG), Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT), and Vicat Softening Temperature (VST)), and measurements of the mechanical properties (hardness, impact strength, and static tensile test). The measurements were performed using design of experiment (DOE) methods, which made it possible to determine the investigated relationships in the form of polynomials and response surfaces. The mass content of the filler and the extruder screw speed during the production of the biocomposite granulate, which was used for the injection moulding of the test samples, constituted the variable factors adopted in the DOE. The study showed significant differences in the processing, thermal, and mechanical properties studied for individual systems of the DOE.

Abstract
Amidation is an important reaction for bioderived platform molecules, which can be upgraded for use in applications such as polymers. However, fundamental understanding of the reaction especially in the presence of multiple groups is still lacking. In this study, the amidation of dimethyl fumarate, maleate, and succinate through ester ammonolysis was examined. The reaction networks and significant side reactions, such as conjugate addition and ring closing, were determined. A preliminary kinetic comparison among additional C4 and C6 esters showed a significant correlation between molecular structure and ammonolysis reactivity. Esters with a C=C double bond in the molecule backbone were found to have higher ammonolysis reactivity. To improve the selectivity to unsaturated amides rather than byproducts, the effects of thermal conditions and additives in dimethyl fumarate ammonolysis were examined. Lower temperature and decreasing methoxide ion concentration in the solution relative to the base case conditions increased the fumaramide selectivity from 67.1 to 90.6%.

Abstract
As a bio-based counterpart of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT), the well-known commercially available biodegradable aliphatic-aromatic copolyester, poly(butylene succinate-co-terephthalate) (PBST) has comparable physical and mechanical properties, but its gas barrier properties, which are very important for packaging material and mulch film applications, have not yet been reported in literature. In this paper, the O2, CO2 and water vapor barrier properties of PBST vs. PBAT were comparatively studied and reported for the first time. Theoretical calculation of O2 and CO2 permeation coefficients via group contribution method was also conducted. The barrier properties of PBST show clear copolymer composition dependence due to different contribution of BS and BT repeat units and composition-dependent crystallinity. Comparing with PBAT, PBST with close copolymer and three-phase (crystalline, amorphous, rigid amorphous) compositions shows 3.5 times O2 and CO2 and 1.5 times water vapor barrier properties. The slower segment movement and less free volume of PBST, and therefore slower gas diffusion in PBST, accounts for its superior O2 and CO2 barrier, while the better hydrophilicity of PBST counteracts partial contribution of slower segment movement so that the improvement in water vapor barrier is not as high as in O2 and CO2 barrier.

Abstract
This article surveys a range of important platform and high value chemicals that may be considered primary and secondary 'xylochemicals'. A summary of identified xylochemical substances and their natural sources is provided in tabular form. In detail, this review is meant to provide useful assistance for the consideration of potential synthetic strategies using xylochemicals, new methodologies and the development of potentially sustainable, xylochemistry-based processes. It should support the transition from petroleum-based approaches and help to move towards more sustainability within the synthetic community. This feasible paradigm shift is demonstrated with the total synthesis of natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients as well as the preparation of organic molecules suitable for potential industrial applications.

Abstract
![]()
The critical aspects
of the corrosion of metal electrodes in cathodic
reductions are covered. We discuss the involved mechanisms including
alloying with alkali metals, cathodic etching in aqueous and aprotic
media, and formation of metal hydrides and organometallics. Successful
approaches that have been implemented to suppress cathodic corrosion
are reviewed. We present several examples from electroorganic synthesis
where the clever use of alloys instead of soft neat heavy metals and
the application of protective cationic additives have allowed to successfully
exploit these materials as cathodes. Because of the high overpotential
for the hydrogen evolution reaction, such cathodes can contribute
toward more sustainable green synthetic processes. The reported strategies
expand the applications of organic electrosynthesis because a more
negative regime is accessible within protic media and common metal
poisons, e.g., sulfur-containing substrates, are compatible with these
cathodes. The strongly diminished hydrogen evolution side reaction
paves the way for more efficient reductive electroorganic conversions.

Abstract
The vast majority of commodity polymers are acquired from petrochemical feedstock, and these resources will plausibly be depleted within the next 100 years. Therefore, the utilization of carbon-neutral renewable resources for the production of polymers is crucial in modern green chemistry. Herein, we report an eco-friendly strategy that uses enzyme catalysis to design biobased unsaturated (co)polyesters from muconic acid derivatives. This method is an attractive pathway for the production of well-defined unsaturated polyesters with minimum side reactions. A suite of characterization techniques was performed to probe the reaction mechanism and properties of the obtained polyesters. It is rationalized that the alkene functionality of the muconate monomers plays an important role in the enzyme catalysis mechanism. The rendered polyesters possessed excellent thermal stabilities and unreacted alkene functionality that can consecutively undergo chain extension, copolymerization, or act as an anchor for other functional groups. These properties open new avenues in the fields of unsaturated polyester resins and photosensitive coatings.

Abstract
Co-production of polysaccharides, ginsenosides and succinic acid was achieved from Panax ginseng residue (PGR) in this study. Physico-chemical separation was first applied to recover the released polysaccharides and ginsenoside. Enzymatic hydrolysis was then conducted to covert the left PGR into mono-sugars which was following transformed into succinic acid by constructing a succinic acid-producing strain of Escherichia coli-ZW333. Results indicated that the yields of polysaccharides and ginsenosides increased according to the increase of deconstruction content of PGR. A total sugar yield reached 52 g/L at 10% PGR loading and increased to 94.33 g/L following fed-batch enzymatic hydrolysis. Finally, 56.28 g/L succinic acid was produced. In total, 18 g ginseng polysaccharides, 230 mg ginsenosides and 39 g succinic acid were produced from 100 g PGR. Accordingly, the total economic output could reach RMB 80,149 from 1 t PGR, illustrating the great value increasement of PGR by this industrially possible process.
