6. Robustness quantification in yeast: A methodology to study phenotypic, evolutionary, and genomic aspects of microbial robustness
Abstract : Bioprocesses contribute to the shift towards a more sustainable economy. In bioprocesses, valuable chemicals can be generated from renewable resources while, at the same time, reducing carbon emissions. A major hurdle in bringing bio-based products to market is the time and cost involved in designing efficient cell factories. READ MORE

7. Process development for platform chemical production from agricultural and forestry residues
Abstract : As part of a bio-based economy, biorefineries are envisaged to sustainably produce platform chemicals via biochemical conversion of agricultural and forestry residues. However, supply risks, the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass, and inhibitor formation during pretreatment impair the economic feasibility of such biorefineries. READ MORE

8. On thermodynamic and kinetic constraints in autotrophic metabolism
Abstract : Earth has entered a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene, defined by humanity’s impact on the environment with increased emissions of CO2 due to burning of fossil resource as a major contributor. To ensure a sustainable future, humanity has to move towards a circular economy, where released CO2 is re-captured and turned into resources. READ MORE

9. Influence of electrode material and stochastic factors on the performance and microbial community assembly in microbial electrochemical systems
Abstract : Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are systems with microbial communities in the form of biofilms on electrode surfaces. The electrogenic bacteria in the anode biofilm act as catalysts for the oxidization of organic compounds, leading to release of electrons, generation of electrical current, and production of hydrogen and methane at the cathode.

10. Fractionation of lipids and protein from the microalga Nannochloropsis oculata
Abstract : To feed Earth’s growing population, microalgae have been proposed as a source of protein and long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFAs). Currently, microalgae are mainly sold either as whole biomass, or the economically valuable LC n-3 PUFA fraction is extracted with organic solvents. READ MORE
