    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Clostridium thermocellum; biofuels; ethanol; atypical glycolysis; pyrophosphate; phosphofructokinase; thermodynamic driving force; redox cofactor balancing; amino acid secretion; chaotropicity; hexose utilization; laboratory evolution; metabolic engineering; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : To mitigate climate change, greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced to net-zero in 2050 requiring a drastic transition in today´s energy sector. To achieve this goal, the use of biofuels produced from lignocellulosic feedstocks, including agricultural and forestry residues, is expected to play an important role. READ MORE

  4. 2. Insights into the metabolism of Clostridium thermocellum for cellulosic ethanol production

    Author : Johannes Yayo; Antonius J. A. van Maris; Richard Sparling; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Clostridium thermocellum; ethanol; glucose; fructose; amino acids; pyrophosphate; chaotropicity; thermodynamic driving force; laboratory evolution; chemostats; metabolic engineering; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Abstract : The societal goal of reaching net-zero CO2 emissions requires development of integrated biorefineries to produce biomass-derived fuels and chemicals. For sustainable second-generation bioethanol production, consolidated bioprocessing with the thermophile Clostridium thermocellum is regarded as a promising concept in view of the microorganism’s native ability to efficiently degrade plant cell wall material.
