is a cellulolytic bacterium that plays an essential role in the degradation of plant fibers in the rumen ecosystem. It converts cellulose polymers into intracellular glycogen and the fermentation metabolites succinate, acetate, and formate. We developed dynamic models of S85 metabolism on glucose, cellobiose, and cellulose on the basis of a network reconstruction done with the automatic reconstruction of metabolic model workspace.

Article Synopsis
  • - Most municipal solid waste (MSW) in Latin America is currently disposed of in landfills, leading to environmental issues, and mechanical biological treatment (MBT) offers a possible solution by separating materials and stabilizing organic waste.
  • - The successful introduction of MBT plants in LATAM requires thorough feasibility studies, taking into account the region's unique social, economic, and political contexts, while comparing experiences with those in developed countries.
  • - Key recommendations for effective MBT operations in LATAM include implementing source separation, creating safe working conditions for informal waste collectors, promoting intermunicipal cooperation, and establishing strong regulations for waste disposal.
