Repeated Fed-Batch Culture Strategy for the Synthesis of Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) Biopolymers from Sugar Cane Juice Using .

In this research work, a main biopolymer group of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) in the form of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) was synthesised by a pure bacterial strain of via repeated fed-batch fermentation. An agricultural crop, sugar cane, was used as the sole carbon source. Firstly, batch fermentation was investigated considering variations in incubation times (24 h, 48 h, and 96 h).

Techniques for analysing and monitoring during continuous bio-hydrogenation of kerosene from palm oils.

In this research work, analytical, experimental methods and monitoring techniques of bio-hydrogenated kerosene (BHK) production in continuous mode were presented. Two kinds of raw materials obtained from palm processing plant named as refined bleached deodorised palm oil (RPO) and palm kernel oil (PKO) were converted into BHK via hydrocracking reaction catalysed by Pd/AlO catalyst in pilot scale. Firstly, both of RPO and PKO were pretreated by thermal technique.
