Abstract
Biorefineries are constantly evolving since new technological advances in enzyme and microbial processes are boosting research for producing new bio-based products. Nevertheless, the step towards real process implementation must overcome a series of stages based on process sustainability in the early design stages. Orange peel (OP) has been profiled as a potential raw material for producing different products. Few studies have estimated the sustainability of OP-based biorefineries considering the upstream influence on the final process performance. This research aims to perform the sustainability assessment of several OP valorization pathways based on experimental data applying the biorefinery concept. Steam distillation and polyphenolic compound extraction prior to saccharification and anaerobic digestion increase the process performance. A glucose concentration and biogas yield of 21.43 g/L (0.44 g/g OP, db) and 415 mL/g SV were obtained, respectively. An essential oil extraction yield of 1.17 g/100 g OP (db) with a d-limonene content of 91.62% was produced. Moreover, hesperidin, apigenin, and naringenin yields of 7.88 mg/g, 0.475 mg/g, and 0.675 mg/g were obtained. An OP-based biorefinery addressed to produce essential oil, polyphenolic compounds, and biogas with a processing 25 tons/day (wb) has a sustainability index of 66.88%, higher than the values obtained with lesser upstream stages. In conclusion, an integral OP upgrading leads to better enzymatic and anaerobic digestion performances, as well as, a high process sustainability.

Li Y, Pan L, He YC. Co-production of 2,5-dihydroxymethylfuran and furfuralcohol from sugarcane bagasse via chemobiocatalytic approach in a sustainable system. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 389:129819. [PMID: 37797802 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/01/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
2,5-Dihydroxymethylfuran and furfuryl alcohol serve as versatile building-blocks in pharmaceuticals, polymers, and value-added intermediates. To develop an efficient and sustainable method for their production from biomass, a combined approach using deep eutectic solvent Citric acid:Betaine (CTA:BT) for bagasse catalysis and recombinant E. coli SCFD23 for bioreduction of bagasse-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and furfural was devised. Bagasse was effectively transformed into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (48 mM) and furfural (14 mM) in CTA:BT (8 wt%)-water at 170 °C for 30 min. Bioreduction of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and furfural by SCFD23 cell co-expressing formate dehydrogenase and NAD(P)H-dependent aldehyde reductase (SsCR) yielded 2,5-dihydroxymethylfuran (90.0 % yield) and furfuryl alcohol (99.0 % yield) in 6 h, using biomass-derived formic acid, xylose and glucose as co-substrates. Molecular docking confirmed the stable binding and reductase activity of SsCR with the biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and furfural. An efficient and eco-friendly chemobiological approach was applied for co-production of 2,5-dihydroxymethylfuran and furfuryl alcohol from biomass in one-pot two-step reaction.

Abstract
Furan-based amines are highly valuable compounds which can be directly obtained via reductive amination from easily accessible furfural, 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF) and 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF). Herein the biocatalytic amination of these carbonyl derivatives is disclosed using amine transaminases (ATAs) and isopropylamine (IPA) as amine donors. Among the different biocatalysts tested, the ones from Chromobacterium violaceum (Cv-TA), Arthrobacter citreus (ArS-TA), and variants from Arthrobacter sp. (ArRmut11-TA) and Vibrio fluvialis (Vf-mut-TA), afforded high levels of product formation (>80 %) at 100-200 mM aldehyde concentration. The transformations were studied in terms of enzyme and IPA loading. The pH influence was found as a key factor and attributed to the imine/aldehyde equilibrium that can arise from the high reactivity of the carbonyl substrates with a nucleophilic amine such as IPA.

Abstract
Lignin is a critical biopolymer for creating a large number of highly valuable biobased compounds. Vanillin, one of lignin-derived aromatics, can be used to synthesize vanillylamine that is a key fine chemical and pharmaceutical intermediate. To produce vanillylamine, a productive whole-cell-catalyzed biotransformation of vanillin was developed in deep eutectic solvent - surfactant - H2O media. One newly created recombinant E. coli 30CA cells expressing ω-transaminase and L-alanine dehydrogenase was employed to transform 50 mM and 60 mM vanillin into vanillylamine in the yield of 82.2% and 8.5% under 40 °C, respectively. The biotransamination efficiency was enhanced by introducing surfactant PEG-2000 (40 mM) and deep eutectic solvent ChCl:LA (5.0 wt%, pH 8.0), and the highest vanillylamine yield reached 90.0% from 60 mM vanillin. Building an effective bioprocess was utilized for transamination of lignin-derived vanillin to vanillylamine with newly created bacteria in an eco-friendly medium, which had potential application for valorization of lignin to value-added compounds.

Biological valorization of lignin-derived vanillin to vanillylamine by recombinant E. coli expressing ω-transaminase and alanine dehydrogenase in a petroleum ether-water system. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023:129453. [PMID: 37406835 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.129453] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
Vanillylamine, as an important drug precursor and fine chemical intermediate, has great economic value. By constructing a strategy of double enzyme co-expression, one newly constructed recombinant E. coli HNIQLE-AlaDH expressing ω-transaminase from Aspergillus terreus and alanine dehydrogenase from Bacillus subtilis was firstly used aminate lignin-derived vanillin to vanillylamine by using a relatively low dosage of amine donors (vanillin:L-alanine:isopropylamine = 1:1:1, mol/mol/mol). In addition, in a two-phase system (water:petroleum ether = 80:20 v/v), the bioconversion of vanillin to vanillylamine was catalyzed by HNIQLE-AlaDH cell under the ambient condition, and the vanillylamine yield was 71.5%, respectively. This double-enzyme HNIQLE-AlaDH catalytic strategy was applied to catalyze the bioamination of furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural with high amination efficiency. It showed that the double-enzyme catalytic strategy in this study promoted L-alanine to replace D-Alanine to participate in bioamination of vanillin and its derivatives, showing a great prospect in the green biosynthesis of biobased chemicals from biomass.
