Bioconversion of Starch Base Food Waste into Bioethanol

Helen Onyeaka et al.

Summary: The global demand for fuel is increasing daily, while the depletion of fossil fuels and their environmental impact as pollution is a severe problem. Food waste disposal is also a complex issue, with current management methods considered hazardous. However, the starch found in food waste can potentially be converted into ethanol through fermentation, making it a valuable resource for bioethanol production.

The current status, challenges and prospects of using biomass energy in Ethiopia

Natei Ermias Benti et al.

Summary: Despite having vast biomass resources potential, Ethiopia's current use of modern energy from biomass is limited. This study supports the use of biomass-based alternative energy sources without negative impact on the socioeconomic system, jeopardizing food security or the environment. The findings provide insights into the challenges, opportunities, and possible solutions for expanding alternative energy sources, as well as exploring effective techniques for producing and utilizing alternate energy sources to shed light on the future prospects of biomass energy deployment in Ethiopia and other developing countries.

Impact of globalization, foreign direct investment, and energy consumption on CO2 emissions in Bangladesh: Does institutional quality matter?

Md. Monirul Islam et al.

Summary: Bangladesh's recent growth trajectory is largely attributed to the contributions of globalization, FDI, trade, economic growth, urbanization, energy consumption, innovation, and institutional quality. The study finds that globalization, FDI, and innovation have a positive impact on environmental quality, while economic growth, trade, energy consumption, and urbanization have negative effects on CO2 emissions, leading to environmental degradation. Institutional quality also plays a role in degrading environmental quality. Policy implications should focus on encouraging globalization, FDI, and innovation, while also ensuring prudent use of income growth, trade potentials, energy consumption, urbanization, and institution quality for the sake of environmental preservation in Bangladesh.

D-Fructose Assimilation and Fermentation by Yeasts Belonging to Saccharomycetes: Rediscovery of Universal Phenotypes and Elucidation of Fructophilic Behaviors in Ambrosiozyma platypodis and Cyberlindnera americana

Rikiya Endoh et al.

Summary: The study investigated the ability of ascomycetous yeasts to assimilate/ferment d-fructose, finding that the vast majority of yeasts are capable of assimilating d-fructose and most of them can also ferment it, indicating a universal phenotype among yeasts in the Saccharomycetes subphylum. Furthermore, the study characterized the fructophilic behavior of specific yeast strains during fermentation.

Convergence of the ecological footprint in Latin America: the role of the productive structure

Brayan Tillaguango et al.

Summary: The study revealed the existence of ecological footprint clubs in regions with high biodiversity, strong dependence on natural resources, high shadow economy, and low productive specialization. Factors such as economic complexity, shadow economy, and natural resources significantly influence the formation of these clubs. The results showed three convergence clubs and two divergence clubs, indicating the need for environmental policies to focus on achieving sustainable development goals in countries that make up the convergence clubs.

Effects of Enzyme Volumes on Hydrolysis and Fermentation for Ethanol Production From Leftover Cooked Rice

Xikai Chen et al.

Summary: Utilizing enzymatic hydrolysis of leftover cooked rice can be a promising method for fermentative ethanol production, with glucoamylase volumes and reducing sugar concentration playing important roles in the process. However, too high reducing sugar concentration may inhibit yeast activity and lead to lower ethanol production.

Optimization of ethanol production using newly isolated ethanologenic yeasts

Asmamaw Tesfaw et al.

Summary: Yeasts were isolated from various sources and screened for efficient ethanol production, with 60% identified as ethanologenic yeasts. Through phenotypic and genetic characterization, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia fermentans, Kluyveromyces marxianus, and Candida humilis were identified as highly fermentative isolates. S. cerevisiae ETP53, K. marxianus ETP87, and P. fermentans ETP22 were found to be good candidates for ethanol production due to their optimal fermentation conditions and ethanol production levels.
