  • a systematic literature review of bio green and circular economy trends in publications in the field of economics and business management
    Sustainability, 2018
    Co-Authors: Valeria Ferreira Gregorio, Antonio Terceno
    Abstract:

    The concepts of bioeconomy, green economy and circular economy share the common objective of developing a Sustainable economy, and they attract enormous political, academic, social and business interest. However, an analysis of these concepts in the fields of economics and business management is lacking. The objective of this article is to classify the publications on these topics by subject of study, to analyse trends in publications and to guide researchers interested in selecting articles. The review was performed using Scopus for the period 1960 to 2017. Four hundred and forty-nine publications were obtained and classified into 17 categories. The results show that the existing literature is rich in analysing implemented policies and issues related to the strategies and organizational models of companies looking for a more Sustainable Path, and research in China and the European Union is highlighted. However, there is still a long way to go in researching implemented case studies and evaluating the economic impact of these concepts. For this to happen, the need to promote, encourage and support companies to implement cleaner production and approach a more Sustainable Path must be prioritised. Possible gaps in current research that allow future lines of work are also identified.

  • development of a clostridia based cell free system for prototyping genetic parts and metabolic Pathways
    Metabolic Engineering, 2020
    Co-Authors: Antje Kruger, Alexander Paul Mueller, Grant A Rybnicky, Nancy L Engle, Zamin K Yang, Timothy J Tschaplinski, Sean Dennis Simpson, Michael Koepke, Michael C Jewett
    Abstract:

    Abstract Gas fermentation by autotrophic bacteria, such as clostridia, offers a Sustainable Path to numerous bioproducts from a range of local, highly abundant, waste and low-cost feedstocks, such as industrial flue gases or syngas generated from biomass or municipal waste. Unfortunately, designing and engineering clostridia remains laborious and slow. The ability to prototype individual genetic part function, gene expression patterns, and biosynthetic Pathway performance in vitro before implementing designs in cells could help address these bottlenecks by speeding up design. Unfortunately, a high-yielding cell-free gene expression (CFE) system from clostridia has yet to be developed. Here, we report the development and optimization of a high-yielding (236 ± 24 μg/mL) batch CFE platform from the industrially relevant anaerobe, Clostridium autoethanogenum. A key feature of the platform is that both circular and linear DNA templates can be applied directly to the CFE reaction to program protein synthesis. We demonstrate the ability to prototype gene expression, and quantitatively map aerobic cell-free metabolism in lysates from this system. We anticipate that the C. autoethanogenum CFE platform will not only expand the protein synthesis toolkit for synthetic biology, but also serve as a platform in expediting the screening and prototyping of gene regulatory elements in non-model, industrially relevant microbes.

  • the Sustainable Path to a circular bioeconomy
    Trends in Biotechnology, 2021
    Co-Authors: Eleanor Hadley Kershaw, Sarah Hartley, Carmen Mcleod, Penelope Polson
    Abstract:

    Circular bioeconomy is gaining prominence in academic, policy, and industry contexts, linking circular economy and bioeconomy agendas in service of sustainability. However, it is at risk of developing in narrow, unSustainable ways. A Sustainable Path to circular bioeconomies must embrace diverse expert and stakeholder input, multiple solutions, and noneconomic value.
