  2. 21. Enhanced Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Lignocellulose in Bioethanol Production Substrate Interactions with Surfactants and Polymers

    Author : Johan Börjesson; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; enzymologi; Penicillium brasilianum; SSF; Ethanol; Proteins; enzymology; Proteiner; Protease; Adsorption; PEG; Surfactant; Hydrolysis; Lignocellulose; Cellulase; Hypocrea jecorina; Trichoderma reesei; Cellulose;

    Abstract : Ethanol produced from cellulose is a promising future alternative fuel. The production process has three main steps: (i) pretreatment of raw material to increase degradability; (ii) enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose to produce glucose; (iii) fermentation of glucose into bioethanol.

  4. 22. Strategies for Molecular Engineering of Macroscopic Adhesion and Integrity Focusing on Cellulose Based Materials

    Author : Andrea Träger; Lars Wågberg; Eva Malmström; Anna Carlmark; Matthew Tirrell; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; blockcopolymer; cellulose; adhesion; ATRP; micelle; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Many aspects of modern human life pose a strain on the delicate ecosystems around us. One example is marine litter – mainly various plastic items – which accumulate in the marine environment, where they cause problems for the fauna, such as ingestion and entanglement. READ MORE

  5. 23. Interactions Between Water and Cellulose Esters

    Author : Robin Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cellulose acetate; wide-angle X-ray scattering; water absorption; Hansen Solubility Parameters; glass transition; water diffusion;

    Abstract : Biopolymers, which are produced from natural sources, are gaining interest as a potential replacement for fossil-based polymers. As such, they are already widely used in several industries, including the food, healthcare, and personal care industries. READ MORE

  6. 24. Ions interacting with macromolecules : NMR studies in solution

    Author : Yuan Fang; Istvan Furo; Monika Schönhoff; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; electrophoretic NMR; diffusion NMR; specific ion effects; Hofmeister; ion binding; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Specific ion effects, identified for more than hundred years, play an important role in a wide range of phenomena and applications. Several mechanisms such as direct ion interaction with molecules have been suggested to explain these effects, but quantitative experimental evidence remains scarce. READ MORE
