Article Synopsis
- Side streams from the milling industry are rich in nutrients but have high phosphorus levels, mainly as phytate, which limits their use in animal feed.
- A biotechnological process using enzymatic hydrolysis effectively reduces phosphorus content in these streams, transforming them into suitable animal feed.
- Batch experiments showed significant phosphorus reductions (up to 92%) in rye bran, and the process allows for the recovery of phosphorus from wastewater while being scalable and easy to implement.
Continuous-flow biocatalysis utilizing immobilized enzymes emerged as a sustainable route for chemical synthesis. However, inadequate biocatalytic efficiency from current flow reactors, caused by non-productive enzyme immobilization or enzyme-carrier mismatches in size, hampers its widespread application. Here, we demonstrate a general-applicable and robust approach for the fabrication of a high-performance enzymatic continuous-flow reactor via integrating well-designed scalable isoporous block copolymer (BCP) membranes as carriers with an oriented and productive immobilization employing material binding peptides (MBP).
