2007 journal article

Effect of potassium inhibition on the thermophilic anaerobic digestion of swine waste

WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH, 79(6), 667–674.

By: Y. Chen n & J. Cheng* 

author keywords: anaerobic digestion; continuous stirred tank reactor; inhibition; potassium; swine waste; thermophilic digestion
MeSH headings : Anaerobiosis / drug effects; Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Bacteria / drug effects; Bacteria / metabolism; Bacterial Physiological Phenomena; Biodegradation, Environmental; Fatty Acids, Volatile / analysis; Industrial Waste; Methane / biosynthesis; Organic Chemicals / metabolism; Potassium / pharmacology; Swine
TL;DR: Propionic acid was the dominant fatty acid, indicating that propionic acid utilizers were more sensitive to potassium inhibition than acetoclastic methanogens, and the toxicity of potassium was evaluated. (via Semantic Scholar)

2007 journal article

Ensiling agricultural residues for bioethanol production

APPLIED BIOCHEMISTRY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY, 143(1), 80–92.

By: Y. Chen n, R. Sharma-Shivappa n & C. Chen *

author keywords: carbohydrate; ensiling; enzyme; feedstocks; fermentation; hydrolysis; lignin; pretreatment
MeSH headings : Agriculture; Animals; Ethanol / chemical synthesis; Fermentation; Hordeum; Industrial Waste; Oryza; Saccharum; Silage; Triticum
TL;DR: Ensiling of barley, triticale, wheat straws, and cotton stalk significantly increased the conversion of holocellulose to sugars during subsequent hydrolysis with two enzyme combinations, and saccharification with Celluclast 1.5 L-Novozyme 188 resulted in equal or higher saccharisation than with Spezyme® CP–xylanase combination.

2007 review

Inhibition of anaerobic digestion process: A review

[Review of ]. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY, 99(10), 4044–4064.

By: Y. Chen n, J. Cheng n  & K. Creamer n

author keywords: anaerobic digestion; agricultural wastes; industrial wastes; inhibition; municipal wastes
MeSH headings : Agriculture; Anaerobiosis; Biodegradation, Environmental; Bioreactors; Biotechnology / methods; Conservation of Natural Resources; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Industrial Waste; Metals, Heavy / chemistry; Methane; Models, Chemical; Sewage; Waste Disposal, Fluid; Waste Management
TL;DR: This review provides a detailed summary of the research conducted on the inhibition of anaerobic processes and indicates that co-digestion with other waste, adaptation of microorganisms to inhibitory substances, and incorporation of methods to remove or counteract toxicants before an aerobic digestion can significantly improve the waste treatment efficiency.

2007 journal article

Potential of agricultural residues and hay for bioethanol production

APPLIED BIOCHEMISTRY AND BIOTECHNOLOGY, 142(3), 276–290.

By: Y. Chen n, R. Sharma-Shivappa n, D. Keshwani n & C. Chen *

author keywords: chemical pretreatment; enzymatic hydrolysis; feedstocks; fermentation; glucan; lignin; xylan
MeSH headings : Biotechnology / methods; Crops, Agricultural / metabolism; Ethanol / metabolism; Fermentation; Glucans / metabolism; Hydrolysis; Lignin / metabolism; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / metabolism; Xylans / metabolism
TL;DR: Production of bioethanol from agricultural residues and hays through a series of chemical pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, and fermentation processes was investigated in this study, indicating that concentration and treatment agent play a significant role during pretreatment.

2006 journal article

A comparison of chemical pretreatment methods for improving saccharification of cotton stalks

BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY, 98(16), 3000–3011.

By: R. Silverstein n, Y. Chen n, R. Sharma-Shivappa n, M. Boyette n & J. Osborne n

author keywords: delignification; bioethanol; modeling; lignocellulose; enzymatic hydrolysis
MeSH headings : Biotechnology / methods; Cellulose / chemistry; Conservation of Energy Resources; Ethanol / chemistry; Gossypium / chemistry; Gossypium / drug effects; Hydrogen Peroxide / chemistry; Hydrolysis; Ozone / chemistry; Sodium Hydroxide / chemistry; Sulfuric Acids / chemistry; Temperature
TL;DR: Quadratic models using time, temperature, and concentration as continuous variables were developed to predict xylan and lignin reduction, respectively for sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide pretreatments, and explained most of the variation in xylan or lign in reduction through simple linear regressions.
