Biotechnological and Medical Aspects of Lactic Acid Bacteria Used for Plant Protection: A Comprehensive Review.

The use of chemical pesticides in agriculture goes hand in hand with some crucial problems. These problems include environmental deterioration and human health complications. To eliminate the problems accompanying chemical pesticides, biological alternatives should be considered.

Influence of Liquid-to-Gas Ratio on the Syngas Fermentation Efficiency: An Experimental Approach.

Syngas fermentation by methanogens is a novel process to purify biogas. Methanogens are able to ferment non-desirable CO, H and CO to methane. However, to use methanogens on an industrial scale, more research has to be done.

Miniaturization and 3D Printing of Bioreactors: A Technological Mini Review.

Many articles have been published on scale-down concepts as well as additive manufacturing techniques. However, information is scarce when miniaturization and 3D printing are applied in the fabrication of bioreactor systems. Therefore, garnering information for the interfaces between miniaturization and 3D printing becomes important and essential.

A Technological Understanding of Biofilm Detection Techniques: A Review.

Biofouling is a persistent problem in almost any water-based application in several industries. To eradicate biofouling-related problems in bioreactors, the detection of biofilms is necessary. The current literature does not provide clear supportive information on selecting biofilm detection techniques that can be applied to detect biofouling within bioreactors.

Elevated biogas production from the anaerobic co-digestion of farmhouse waste: Insight into the process performance and kinetics.

The biodegradable portion of solid waste generated in farmhouses can be treated for energy recovery with small portable biogas plants. This action can be done across the Netherlands and all around the planet. This study aims to appraise the performance of anaerobic digestion of different wastes (cow manure, food waste and garden waste) obtained from a regional farmhouse.
