High-solids enzymatic hydrolysis for biomass has currently received considerable interest. However, the solid effect during the process limits its economic feasibility. This work presented an ordered polyethylene glycol (PEG) pre-incubated strategy for enhancing the auxiliary effect of PEG in a high-solids enzymatic hydrolysis system.

As a dehydration product of pentoses in hemicellulose sugar streams derived from lignocellulosic biomass, furfural is a prevalent inhibitor in the efficient microbial conversion process. To solve this obstacle, exploiting a biorefinery strain with remarkable furfural tolerance capability is essential. KT2440 () has served as a valuable bacterial chassis for biomass biorefinery.

1,2-Propanediol is an important building block as a component used in the manufacture of unsaturated polyester resin, antifreeze, biofuel, nonionic detergent, etc. Commercial production of 1,2-propanediol through microbial biosynthesis is limited by low efficiency, and chemical production of 1,2-propanediol requires petrochemically derived routes involving wasteful power consumption and high pollution emissions. With the development of various strategies based on metabolic engineering, a series of obstacles are expected to be overcome.
