摘要:
The invention relates to a method for producing a hydrocarbon by the reduction of CO 2 , wherein CO 2 is reduced to a hydrocarbon using a directly heated electrode. The invention also relates to an apparatus for carrying out a corresponding method, a corresponding power plant and a system comprising such a power plant and a vehicle with an internal combustion engine. The system and apparatuses can be used, for example, as a micro-energy system for local power supply.
摘要:
The object of the invention is to provide a method which, if compared with prior art, more specifically and efficiently produces a compound having a phenol propane structure from natural biomass containing lignins by causing enzymes to act on the biomass. The object is achieved by a method for producing a phenyl propane-based compound comprising a step of producing a phenyl propane-based compound by causing enzymes derived from microorganisms of the genus Novosphingobium to act on biomass containing lignins and/or lignin-related substances in the presence of NAD and reduction type glutathione.
摘要:
Non-naturally occurring microbial organisms and related methods, processes and materials are for microbial organisms that include a genetic modification which enhances production of 3-hydroxybutanal or a downstream product of 3-hydroxybutanal such as 1,3-butanediol from endogenous central metabolic intermediates such as acetyl CoA or pyruvate which are converted to acetaldehyde. Two molecules of acetaldehyde are condensed to form the 3-hydroxybutanal using an aldolase capable of accepting acetaldehyde as both the acceptor and donor in an aldol condensation. The aldolase may be a deoxyribose phosphate aldolase type enzyme, and is typically introduced into the organisms. Energetically favorable pathways produce 3-hydroxybutanal or downstream products thereof.
摘要:
There is described a method for producing 3-hydroxypropanal, the method comprising: culturing an Acetobacter lovaniensis bacterium in a growth medium containing phosphate at a level which is more than 1 g/litre and nitrate at a level which is more than 0.1 g/litre, wherein culturing of the bacterium produces the 3-hydroxypropanal. The 3-hydroxypropanal can be separated from the growth medium or, when the microorganism has converted some or all of the 3-hydroxypropanal to 3-hydroxypropionic acid and/or a 3-hydroxypropionate ester, it may be separated as 3-hydroxypropionic acid or a 3-hydroxypropionate ester. The separated product can be converted into other chemicals such as an ester of 3-hydroxypropionic acid, 3-hydroxypropionic acid, 3-hydroxypropionate salts (including ammonium, sodium and calcium 3-hydroxypropionate), acrylic acid, acrylates, acrylamide, acrylonitrile, acrolein and 1,3 propanediol.
摘要:
Modification of metabolic pathways includes genetically engineering at least one enzyme involved in elongating 2-ketoacids during leucine biosynthesis, and preferably at least isopropylmalate dehydrogenase or synthase (LeuB or LeuA in E. coli), to include at least such non-native enzyme, enzyme complex, or combination thereof to convert 2-ketobutyrate or 2-ketoisovalerate to a C7-C11 2-ketoacid, wherein the production of such is at a higher efficiency than if a purely native pathway is followed. The C7-C11 2-ketoacid may then be converted, via a native or genetically engineered thiamin dependent decarboxylase, to form a C6-C10 aldehyde having one less carbon than the C7-C11 2-ketoacid being converted. In some embodiments the C6-C10 aldehyde may then be converted via additional native or genetically engineered enzymes to form other C6-C10 products, including alcohols, carboxylic acids, and alkanes. This genetic engineering offers the opportunity for commercial scale of in vivo biosynthetic processes that may be more cost-efficient than non-biobased approaches to produce the same products.

Provided herein is a non-naturally occurring microbial organism having a methanol metabolic pathway that can enhance the availability of reducing equivalents in the presence of methanol. Such reducing equivalents can be used to increase the product yield of organic compounds produced by the microbial organism, such as succinate. Also provided herein are methods for using such an organism to produce succinate.

摘要:
The present invention discloses a novel method for biological reduction of the carboxylic acids to their corresponding aldehydes and/or alcohols with high productivity and high yield by using fungus in the category of basidiomycetes. This reduction is specific and selective for its functional group (—COOH), without affecting other functional group such as—R groups (—OH, —NH2, -alkyl, -alkyoxy) and their position, number on aromatic ring. The method of the invention relates to reduction of aryl acids to aldehyde and/or alcohols by employing a white rot fungus—Pycnoporus cinnabarinus, an organism of basidiomycete species, grown in vessel/column. The biotransformation was performed in vessel/column/fermentor with pH control, dissolved oxygen, membrane system, product extractor is attached.
