Biorefinery Bundle
Improving efficiency of paper mills through hot-water extraction of biomass
Background: While wood is an abundant and sustainable resource, many pulping processes used to produce paper and cardboard only purify and use cellulose, leaving lignin and hemicellulose to go to waste. Through hot water extraction of the biomass, these components can instead...

Click-Chemistry Enabled Polyhydroxyalkanoate Polymers
Synthesis of PHAs using a modified bacterial strain and click chemistry.
Background: Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are biodegradable plastics produced by microorganisms that can be used as substitutes for non-biodegradable, petroleum-based plastics. Because PHAs are produced by microorganisms, the monomer unit composition can’t always be controlled,...

Hydrolysis of Primary Clarified Sludge with Addition of an Nonionic Surfactant to Increase the Yield
Adding value to waste from paper mills by digesting cellulosic fines from biomass.
Background: A significant fraction of short fibers commonly called “reject fines” is produced while recycling waste paper at paper mills. These fines are usually rejected into the solid waste stream that further requires land filling at cost to the manufacturer...

Molecular Roadblocks for RpoN Binding Sites
Novel synthetic peptides that inhibit genes responsible for virulence and biofilm formation.
Background:The RNA polymerase sigma-54 factor (rpoN) gene is conserved across a wide number of bacterial species, and the RpoN protein has been shown to activate transcription of genes encoding proteins involved in nitrogen utilization, pilin, flagella, and...

Method for Removing Colloidal and Dissolved Lignin and Other Organic Compounds for Purification of Lignocellulosic Extracts Produced by Hot Water and Similar Pretreatments
Method for the purification of lignin from solution with flocculating agents.
Background:Lignocellulosic biomass is some of the most sustainable and renewable feedstock for the production of biofuels and useful biocomposite materials. However, existing methods of detoxifying wood extracts are complicated and expensive.
Technology Overview:
A new approach...
