production of butanol from starch based waste packing peanuts and Agricultural waste
Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2002Co-Authors: T W Jesse, N Qureshi, Thaddeus Chukwuemeka Ezeji, Hanspeter M BlaschekAbstract:We examined the fermentation of starch-based packing peanuts and Agricultural Wastes as a source of fermentable carbohydrates using Clostridium beijerinckii BA101. Using semidefined P2 medium containing packing peanuts and Agricultural Wastes, instead of glucose as a carbohydrate source, we measured characteristics of the fermentation including solvent production, productivity, and yield. With starch as substrate (control), the culture produced 24.7 g l−1 acetone–butanol–ethanol (ABE), while with packing peanuts it produced 21.7 g l−1 total ABE with a productivity of 0.20 g l−1 h−1 and a solvent (ABE) yield of 0.37. Cell growth in starch, packing peanuts, and Agricultural Wastes medium was different, possibly due to the different nature of these substrates. Using model Agricultural waste, 20.3g l−1 ABE was produced; when using actual waste, 14.8 g l−1 ABE was produced. The use of inexpensive substrates will increase the economic viability of the conversion of biomass to butanol, and can provide new markets for these waste streams.

influence of biochar on heavy metals and microbial community during composting of river sediment with Agricultural Wastes
Bioresource Technology, 2017Co-Authors: Yaoning Chen, Guang Ming Zeng, Yao Liu, Yanrong Chen, Jia Chao ZhangAbstract:Studies were performed to evaluate influence of biochar addition on physico-chemical process, heavy metals transformation and bacterial community diversity during composting of sediment with Agricultural Wastes. Simultaneously, the relationships between those parameters including heavy metals and bacterial community compositions were evaluated by redundancy analysis (RDA). The results show that the extraction efficiency of DTPA extractable heavy metals decreased in both piles, and reduced more in pile with biochar addition about 0.1-2.96%. Biochar addition dramatically influenced the bacterial community structure during the composting process. Moreover, the bacterial community composition was significantly correlated with C/N ratio, water soluble carbon (WSC), and organic matter (OM) (P<0.05) in pile with biochar addition; while significantly correlated with temperature, WSC, and C/N ratio in pile which was free of biochar. This study would provide some valuable information for improving the composting for disposal of river sediment with heavy metals contamination.

effect of inoculating white rot fungus during different phases on the compost maturity of Agricultural Wastes
Process Biochemistry, 2009Co-Authors: Guang Ming Zeng, Hong Li Huang, Dan Lian Huang, Xing Zhong Yuan, Rong Qing Jiang, Man Yu, Hong Yan Yu, Jia Chao Zhang, Ren You WangAbstract:The lignocellulolytic microorganism, Phanerochaete chrysosporium, was inoculated during different phases of Agricultural Wastes composting, and its effect on compost maturity was studied. In the three runs, the decrease in C/N ratio and increases in germination index and humification indices (humification ratio, humification index, percentage of humic acids and degree of polymerisation) were found. Furthermore, the different effects of inoculation during different phases on the compost maturity could be observed by using ANOVA. When inoculated during the second fermentation phase, P. chrysosporium induced significant changes on all parameters of compost maturity except C/N ratio, whereas it did not produce an obvious change on these parameters when inoculated during the first fermentation phase.
