“…Alternatively, though still in its infancy, anaerobic syngas-utilizing strains, which efficiently assimilate CO directly through the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway, have been modified to produce PHB (Flüchter et al 2019 ). Notably, syngas can also be derived from biomass gasification, which is mainly performed on difficult-to-treat lignocellulosic biomass as this is considered a simpler way to tap into the available carbon and allow direct fermentation, as compared to intensive pre-treatment and purification techniques (Rodionova et al 2022 ).…”

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a microbially produced biopolymer that is emerging as a propitious alternative to petroleum-based plastics owing to its biodegradable and biocompatible properties. However, to date, the relatively high costs related to the PHB production process are hampering its widespread commercialization. Since feedstock costs add up to half of the total production costs, ample research has been focusing on the use of inexpensive industrial side streams as carbon sources. While various industrial side streams such as second-generation carbohydrates, lignocellulose, lipids, and glycerol have been extensively investigated in liquid fermentation processes, also gaseous sources, including carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, and methane, are gaining attention as substrates for gas fermentation. In addition, recent studies have investigated two-stage processes to convert waste gases into PHB via organic acids or alcohols. In this review, a variety of different industrial side streams are discussed as more sustainable and economical carbon sources for microbial PHB production. In particular, a comprehensive overview of recent developments and remaining challenges in fermentation strategies using these feedstocks is provided, considering technical, environmental, and economic aspects to shed light on their industrial feasibility. As such, this review aims to contribute to the global shift towards a zero-waste bio-economy and more sustainable materials.

“…Traditionally, humanity has directly burned all types of biomass-cutting down forests and using any kind of waste (plant and animal) capable of generating heat, lighting, and energy. The excessive use of this type of biofuel, called primary [8], has brought severe environmental and social consequences, and it is inefficient. Therefore, its use is increasingly compromised, and in the regions where it is still used, more efficient and sustainable technologies are being promoted.…”

Logistics and Costs of Agricultural Residues for Cellulosic Ethanol Production

There is global pressure to make advanced biofuels profitable. For cellulosic ethanol, three aspects remain as bottlenecks: collection of feedstocks, pretreatment methods, and enzyme production. In this paper, the first aspect is investigated, by addressing the main challenges for the logistics of agricultural residues. A logistic supply chain of corn stover collection and utilization for cellulosic ethanol production in Mexico is proposed, and a cost structure is designed for its estimation. By applying a value chain methodology, seven links and a set of three minimum selling prices (MSPs) of agricultural residues were determined. Furthermore, the harvest index (HI), crop residue index (CRI), nutrient substitution by extraction of agricultural residues, and harvest costs of corn stover were also calculated for a case study. The main results were a HI of 0.45, a CRI of 1.21, and nutrient substitution potential of 7 kg N, 2.2 kg P2O5, and 12.2 kg K2O per ton of corn stover. The set of the three estimated MSPs for corn stover was: $28.49 USD/ton (for delivery to the biorefinery’s gate), $31.15 USD/ton (for delivery and storage), and $48.14 USD/ton (for delivery, storage, and nutrient replenishment). Given the impact of the feedstock cost on the profitability of cellulosic ethanol, knowing details of the logistical information and its costs is critical to advancing the field of biofuels in Mexico. We also found that only 20% of farmers currently sell their residues; however, 65% of farmers would be willing to do so, a significant percentage for cellulosic ethanol production.

“…As a clean and sustainable energy carrier, hydrogen is considered the most promising method to address the energy crisis in the upcoming decades. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] However, the problem of hydrogen storage and transportation is the main obstacle to the widespread application of hydrogen as a feeding fuel since hydrogen has a very low volumetric density (0.0899 kg m −3 ) under ambient conditions. 14 Thus, the development of safe and effective hydrogen storage materials is a step towards a hydrogen-based energy economy.…”
