Biodegradation of bioplastics under aerobic and anaerobic aqueous conditions: Kinetics, carbon fate and particle size effect

Octavio Garcia-Depraect et al.

Summary: This study compared the biodegradation of various bioplastics in different aerobic and anaerobic conditions, showing that particle size significantly affects the degradation rate. The increase in biomass accounted for a varying proportion of the total carbon, highlighting the importance of analyzing biodegradation kinetics and carbon fate in improving the development and testing of biodegradable materials.

Recent trends and advances in biogas upgrading and methanotrophs-based valorization

Bibiana Comesana-Gandara et al.

Summary: The global quest for sustainability in industrial activities and waste management has led to an increase in biogas production. However, with the decreasing cost of renewable energies, biogas electricity prices are predicted to become higher than solar or wind power. In light of this, upgrading biogas to biomethane is becoming an alternative to biogas combustion. Membrane separation technology has become the dominant method in biogas upgrading, replacing scrubbing and adsorption technologies. Additionally, biogas biorefineries have emerged as an innovative platform for converting methane into value-added products.

Inspired by nature: Microbial production, degradation and valorization of biodegradable bioplastics for life-cycle-engineered products

Octavio Garcia-Depraect et al.

Summary: Global environmental pollution from micro- and macro-plastics is a consequence of extensive use and improper waste management of conventional plastic products. Biobased and biodegradable plastics are emerging as alternatives, but the lack of advanced end-of-life technologies hinders circularity in the material economy.

Imaging and modelling of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) synthesis in Paracoccus denitrificans

Sergio Bordel et al.

Summary: The formation of PHB granules in Paracoccus denitrificans Pd1222 was studied using laser scanning confocal microscopy and gas chromatography analysis. The study revealed that PHB accumulation is influenced by succinate as the sole carbon and energy sources. The model used in the analysis provided quantitative predictions of biomass yields and PHB synthesis, supporting previous research findings.
