    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; continuous cultivation; galactose; Rhizopus; xylose; Rhizomucor; S cerevisiae; Mucor; M indicus; glucose; immobilisation; detoxification; arabinose; mannose; overliming; ethanol; dilute-acid hydrolysate;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the production of bio-ethanol, a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, from dilute-acid lignocellulosic hydrolysate in a continuous immobilised cell system and fermentation of the hydrolysate by a zygomycete organism, M. indicus. READ MORE

  2. 2. Fermentation of undetoxified dilute acid lignocellulose hydrolysate for fuel ethanol production

    Author : Tomas Brandberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hydrolysate; lignocellulose; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; nitrogen limitation; microaerobic conditions; cell recirculation; continuous fermentation; Mucor indicus; ethanol; cell retention;

    Abstract : Important aspects of ethanol production from undetoxified dilute acid lignocellulose hydrolysate are covered in this thesis, which primarily focuses on the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Baker's yeast) as the biocatalyst. Nine different strains of S. READ MORE

  3. 3. Zygomycetes and cellulose residuals : hydrolysis, cultivation and applications

    Author : Patrik Lennartsson; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; zygomycetes; fungi; lignocelluloses; ethanol; fish feed; animal feed; dimorphism; airlift; pretreatment; Biotechnology; Resursåtervinning; Resource Recovery;

    Abstract : Zygomycetes is a class of fungi living worldwide as saprobes, as part of mycorrhizae, and as parasites. Humans have used some zygomycetes for centuries in the production of traditional foods, e.g. Indonesian tempe. READ MORE

  4. 4. Evaluation of suitable nursery areas for penaeid shrimps in shallow water systems in southern Mozambique

    Author : Daniela de Abreu; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tropics; Southeast Africa; Shallow water; Estuaries; Nursery ground value; Decapods; Penaeidae; Carbon and nitrogen isotopes; Diet; Acetyl cholinesterase; Butyryl cholinesterase; Metals;

    Abstract : Tropical shallow water habitats such as estuaries, mangrove forests and seagrass beds are important nursery areas for juveniles of many commercially important species including penaeid shrimp. Penaeids are one of the most important fishery resources worldwide, and in Mozambique they are the basis of a profitable commercial fishery, landing hundreds of tons per year. READ MORE

  5. 5. Biomarkers for assessing benthic pollution impacts in a subtropical estuary, Mozambique

    Author : Maria Perpétua Janeiro Scarlet; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; subtrophical estuary; contaminants; biological hierarcial biomarkers; scope for growth; burrowing response; acethylcholinesterase; benthic fauna; southern Mozambique;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the marine environment in a subtropical estuary and particularly on exploring a suite of easy-to-use, cost effective and environmentally valid biological response tools (biomarkers). The main driving force of the thesis is the knowledge of the numerous anthropogenic impacts. READ MORE
