  abstract  = {Commercial materials with polyvinylpolypyrrolidone and polymeric amberlites (XAD7HP, XAD16) are commonly used for the adsorptive downstream processing of polyphenols from renewable resources. In this study, beta-zeolite-based adsorbent systems were examined, and their properties were compared to organic resins. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted with synthetic solutions of major polyphenols. Adsorption isotherms and desorption characteristics of individual adsorbent were determined based on these results. Maximum adsorption capacities were calculated using the Langmuir model. For example, the zeolites had capacities up to 203.2 mg/g for ferulic acid. To extend these results to a complex system, additional experiments were performed on rapeseed meal and wheat seed extracts as representative renewable resources. HPLC analysis showed that with 7.5\% w/v, which is regarded as the optimum amount of zeolites, zeolites A and B could bind 100\% of the major polyphenols as well as release polyphenols at high yields. Additionally, regeneration experiments were performed with isopropyl alcohol at 99°C to evaluate how zeolites regenerate under mild conditions. The results showed only a negligible loss of adsorption capacity and no loss of desorption capacity. In summary, it was concluded that beta-zeolites were promising adsorbents for developing new processes to isolate polyphenols from renewable resources.},

  abstract  = {Biotechnological downstream processing is usually an elaborate procedure, requiring a multitude of unit operations to isolate the target component. Besides the disadvantageous space-time yield, the risks of cross-contaminations and product loss grow fast with the complexity of the isolation procedure. A significant reduction of unit operations can be achieved by application of magnetic particles, especially if these are functionalized with affinity ligands. As magnetic susceptible materials are highly uncommon in biotechnological processes, target binding and selective separation of such particles from fermentation or reactions broths can be done in a single step. Since the magnetizable particles can be produced from iron salts and low priced polymers, a single-use implementation of these systems is highly conceivable. In this article, the principles of magnetizable particles, their synthesis and functionalization are explained. Furthermore, applications in the area of reaction engineering, microfluidics and downstream processing are discussed focusing on established single-use technologies and development potential.},

  abstract  = {Grass silage provides a great potential as renewable feedstock. Two fractions of the grass silage, a press juice and the fiber fraction, were evaluated for their possible use for bioethanol production. Direct production of ethanol from press juice is not possible due to high concentrations of organic acids. For the fiber fraction, alkaline peroxide or enzymatic pretreatment was used, which removes the phenolic acids in the cell wall. In this study, we demonstrate the possibility to integrate the enzymatic pretreatment with a simultaneous saccharification and fermentation to achieve ethanol production from grass silage in a one-process step. Achieved yields were about 53 g ethanol per kg silage with the alkaline peroxide pretreatment and 91 g/kg with the enzymatic pretreatment at concentrations of 8.5 and 14.6 g/L, respectively. Furthermore, it was shown that additional supplementation of the fermentation medium with vitamins, trace elements and nutrient salts is not necessary when the press juice is directly used in the fermentation step.},

The substrate is a fiber fraction obtained by organosolv pre-treatment of beech wood. For the ethanol production, a co-fermentation by two different yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pachysolen tannophilus) was carried out to convert glucose as well as xylose. Two approaches has been followed: 1. A two step process, in which the hydrolysis of the fiber fraction and the fermentation to product are separated from each other. 2. A process, in which the hydrolysis and the fermentation are carried out in one single process step as simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). Following the first approach, a yield of about 0.15 g ethanol per gram substrate can be reached. Based on the SSF, one process step can be saved, and additionally, the gained yield can be raised up to 0.3 g ethanol per gram substrate.},

The microbiological removal of nitrate by Paracoccus denitrificans under formation of harmless nitrogen in combination with a cell retention reactor is described here. Focus lies on the resource-conserving design of a microbal denitrification process. Two methods are compared. The application of polyvinyl alcohol-immobilized cells, which can be applied several times in whey feed, is compared with the implementation of a two step denitrification system. First, the whey concentrate's nitrate is removed by ion exchange and subsequently the eluent regenerated by microorganisms under their retention by crossflow filtration. Nitrite and nitrate concentrations were determined by reflectometric color measurement with a commercially available Reflectoquant® device. Correction factors for these media had to be determined. During the pilot development, bioreactors from 4 to 250 mg·L-1 and crossflow units with membrane areas from 0.02 to 0.80 m2 were examined. Based on the results of the pilot plants, a scaling for the exemplary process of denitrifying 1,000 tons per day is discussed.},

  abstract  = {Due to the interfering effects of acetic acid in many fermentation processes, a gas-diffusion technique was developed for the online determination of acetic acid. The measurements were accomplished with a flow diffusion analysis (FDA) unit from the TRACE Analytics GmbH, Braunschweig, Germany. The diffusion analysis is based on the UV-absorbance of acetic acid at 205 nm. The measurement was achieved by the separation of an acceptor and a carrier stream (acidified fermentation broth) using a gas permeable polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane, whereby broth constituents that would otherwise disturb the UV-measurement of acetic acid, are held back efficiently. Merely, the fermentation by-products, e.g. formic acid, is capable of diffusing through the membrane. While formic acid can disturb the measurement, carbon dioxide does not absorb at 205 nm. The method operates with time-dependent sample enrichment. During the analysis, a small volume of the acceptor stream is stopped for a defined time interval in the acceptor chamber. During this period, the gaseous acetic acid diffuses through the membrane and is enriched in the acceptor chamber. Subsequently after the enrichment, the acceptor stream flows through a UV-detector. The intensity of the signal is proportional to the acetic acid concentration. Online measurements in bioreactors via a sterile filtration probe have been accomplished. A linear calibration in the range of 0.5-5.0 g/L acetic acid with a relative standard deviation of <5 \% was obtained. A sampling rate of 8 samples per hour was possible. The system was applied for the determination of acetic acid in E. coli fermentation broth. The instrument is easy to clean, very user-friendly and does not require any toxic or expensive reagents.},

The study focuses on the combination of biotransformation and downstream processing (preparative chromatography) as an efficient method to produce a pure extract of mannoheptulose. The experiments were divided into two major phases. In the first phase, several methods and parameters were compared to optimize the mannoheptulose extraction with respect to efficiency and purity. In the second phase, a mass balance of mannoheptulose over the whole extraction process was undertaken to estimate the yield and efficiency of the total extraction process. The combination of biotransformation and preparative chromatography allowed the production of a pure mannoheptulose extract. In a biological test, the sugar inhibited the glucokinase enzyme activity efficiently.},

  abstract  = {Due to their anion exchange characteristics, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are suitable for the detoxification of aqueous, fatty acid containing fermentation substrates. The aim of this study is to examine the adsorption mechanism, using crude glycerol from plant oil esterification as a model system. Changes in the intercalation structure in relation to the amount of fatty acids adsorbed are monitored by X-ray diffraction and infra-red spectroscopy. Additionally, calcination of LDH is investigated in order to increase the binding capacity for fatty acids. Our data propose that, at ambient temperature, fatty acids can be bound to the hydrotalcite by adsorption or in addition by intercalation, depending on fatty acid concentration. The adsorption of fatty acids from crude glycerol shows a BET-like behavior. Above a fatty acid concentration of 3.5 g L-1, intercalation of fatty acids can be shown by the appearance of an increased interlayer spacing. This observation suggests a two phase adsorption process. Calcination of LDHs allows increasing the binding capacity for fatty acids by more than six times, mainly by reduction of structural CO32-.},

  abstract  = {The development of a cost-effective hydrolysis for crude cellulose is an essential part of biorefinery developments. To establish such high solid hydrolysis, a new solid state reactor with static mixing is used. However, concentrations >10\% (w/w) cause a rate and yield reduction of enzymatic hydrolysis. By optimizing the synergetic activity of cellulolytic enzymes at solid concentrations of 9\%, 17\% and 23\% (w/w) of crude Organosolv cellulose, glucose concentrations of 57, 113 and 152 g L⁻¹ are reached. However, the glucose yield decreases from 0.81 to 0.72gg⁻¹ at 17\% (w/w). Optimal conditions for hydrolysis scale-up under minimal enzyme addition are identified. As result, at 23\% (w/w) crude cellulose the glucose yield increases from 0.29 to 0.49gg⁻¹. As proof of its applicability, biobutanol, succinic and itaconic acid are produced with the crude hydrolysate. The potential of the substrate is proven e.g. by a high butanol yield of 0.33gg⁻¹.},

The new dipstick sensor is capable of detecting down to 5 µg·l-1 (ppb; total inversion of the color signal) or 1 ppb (observation of color grading) of microcystin-LR. The course of the labeling reaction was observed via spectrometric wave shifts caused by the change of particle size during the binding of antibodies. Different stabilizing reagents showed that especially bovine serum albumin (BSA) and casein increase the assays sensitivity and the conjugate stability. Performance of the dipsticks was quantified by pattern processing of capture zone CCD images. Storage stability of dipsticks and conjugate suspensions over 115 days under different conditions were monitored. The ready-to-use dipsticks were successfully tested with microcystin-LR-spiked samples of outdoor drinking- and salt water and applied to the tissue of microcystin-fed mussels.},

  abstract  = {A future bio-economy should not only be based on renewable raw materials but also in the raise of carbon yields of existing production routes. Microbial electrochemical technologies are gaining increased attention for this purpose. In this study, the electro-fermentative production of biobutanol with C. acetobutylicum without the use of exogenous mediators is investigated regarding the medium composition and the reactor design. It is shown that the use of an optimized synthetic culture medium allows higher product concentrations, increased biofilm formation, and higher conductivities compared to a synthetic medium supplemented with yeast extract. Moreover, the optimization of the reactor system results in a doubling of the maximum product concentrations for fermentation products. When a working electrode is polarized at -600 mV vs. Ag/AgCl, a shift from butyrate to acetone and butanol production is induced. This leads to an increased final solvent yield of Yᴀᴃᴇ = 0.202 gg⁻¹ (control 0.103 gg⁻¹), which is also reflected in a higher carbon efficiency of 37.6\% compared to 23.3\% (control) as well as a fourfold decrease in simplified E-factor to 0.43. The results are promising for further development of biobutanol production in bioelectrochemical systems in order to fulfil the principles of Green Chemistry.},

Nowadays it is widespread and the dominant grass species on green areas in temperate climates. This abundant source of biomass is suitable for the development of bioeconomic processes because of its high cellulose and water-soluble carbohydrate content. In this work, novel breeds of the perennial ryegrass are being examined with regards to their quality parameters and biotechnological utilization options within the context of bioeconomy. Three processing operations are presented. In the first process, the perennial ryegrass is pretreated by pressing or hydrothermal extraction to derive glucosevia subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose. A yield of up to 82 \% glucose was achieved when using the hydrothermal ex-traction as pretreatment. In a second process, the ryegrass is used to produce lactic acid in high concentrations. The influence of the growth conditions and the cutting time on the carboxylic acid yield is investigated. A yield of lactic acid of above 150 g kg⁻¹ dry matter was achieved. The third process is to use Lolium perenne as a substrate in the fermentation of K. marxianus for the microbial production of single-cell proteins. The perennial ryegrass is screw-pressed and the press juice is used as medium. When supplementing the press juice with yeast media components, a biomass concentration of up to 16 g L⁻¹ could be achieved.},

Biomasses are attracting more interest due to the low environmental impacts, low costs, and high availability on earth. In this scenario, green biorefineries are a promising platform in which green biomasses are used as feedstock. Grasses are mainly composed of cellulose and hemicellulose, and lignin is available in a small amount. In this work, a perennial ryegrass was used as feedstock to develop a green bio-refinery platform. Firstly, the grass was mechanically pretreated, thus obtaining a press juice and a press cake fraction. The press juice has high nutritional values and can be employed as part of fermentation media. The press cake can be employed as a substrate either in enzymatic hydrolysis or in solid-state fermentation. The overall aim of this work was to demonstrate different applications of both the liquid and the solid fractions. For this purpose, the filamentous fungus A. niger and the yeast Y. lipolythica were selected for their ability to produce citric acid. Finally, the possibility was assessed to use the press juice as part of fermentation media to cultivate S. cerevisiae and lactic acid bacteria for ethanol and lactic acid fermentation.},

F{\"u}r die Hydrolyse wurden drei Ans{\"a}tze untersucht: 1. die direkte Fermentation des Adsorbers mit lipolytisch aktiven Clostridien, 2. der Einsatz von Lipasen und die Fermentation des resultierenden {\"U}berstands und 3. die Kofermentation mit einer lipolytisch aktiven Hefe. Jeder der drei Ans{\"a}tze f{\"u}hrte zu einerHydrolyse des {\"O}ls und Wachstum der Mikroorganismen. Der Einsatz von Lipasen resultierte in einer vollst{\"a}ndigen und der schnellsten Hydrolyse des {\"O}ls. Eine Glycerinkonzentration von 13,4 g/L konnte erreicht werden. Die anaerobe Fermentation der verschiedenen Clostridien auf Minimalmedien verlief erfolgreich. Der Vergleich der Fermentationen der Bleicherdehydrolysate zeigte, dass das Hydrolysat wachstumsinhibierende Substanzen enth{\"a}lt. Unter diesen Bedingungen konnte eine Ausbeute von Y P/S = 0,11 erzielt werden. Der Einsatz eines Ionenaustauschers zur Reinigung des Hydrolysats vor der Fermentation resultierte in einer Verbesserung des Wachstums},

  abstract  = {Durch den Einsatz magnetisierbarer Partikel lassen sich Stoffwechselprodukte direkt und selektiv aus feststoffreichen Fermentationssuspensionen abtrennen. Im Gegensatz zu klassischen Adsorbermaterialien k{\"o}nnen magnetisierbare Partikel mit sehr geringen Durchmessern verwendet werden. Zur deren Abtrennung ist jedoch ein hoher Magnetfeldgradient notwendig. Dieser wird in der Regel durch in der Trennkammer bzw. dem Magnetfeld eingebrachte magnetisierbare Dr{\"a}hte realisiert. Bei der Auslegung der Drahtgitter ist ein Kompromiss zwischen Abtrennrate und Durchl{\"a}ssigkeit n{\"o}tig. Die Ausrichtung der Dr{\"a}hte in Relation zum Magnetfeld, deren Abstand sowie die geometrische Anordnung k{\"o}nnen hierbei variiert werden. Zum Verst{\"a}ndnis der Einfl{\"u}sse auf das sich ausbildende Magnetfeld und die Fluiddynamik wurden Simulationen mit der Finite-Elemente-Methode durchgef{\"u}hrt und experimentell {\"u}berpr{\"u}ft. Hierf{\"u}r wurden die Dr{\"a}hte unter Variation von Anzahl, Richtung und Anordnung in den Hochgradient-Magnetseparator eingebracht. Erste Verifizierungen der Simulationen zeigen, dass die in Magnetfeldrichtung ausgerichteten Dr{\"a}hte (x-Achse) {\"u}ber die geringste Partikelr{\"u}ckhaltef{\"a}higkeit verf{\"u}gen. Die Dr{\"a}hte der y- und z-Achse halten den gr{\"o}ßten Anteil der Magnetpartikel zur{\"u}ck, wobei die Dr{\"a}hte in y-Richtung den h{\"o}chsten Feldgradienten ausbilden. Des Weiteren konnte gezeigt werden, dass eine rhomboedrische Drahtanordnung der kubischen vorzuziehen ist.},

  abstract  = {In der Reihe der nachwachsenden Rohstoffe besitzt Holz als erneuerbare und umweltfreundliche Ressource ein großes Potenzial. {\"U}ber 11 Mio. ha Holz, das laut der Fachagentur f{\"u}r nachwachsende Rohstoffe (FNR) auch f{\"u}r industrielle Zwecke genutzt werden kann, wuchsen im Jahr 2013 allein auf bundesdeutscher Fl{\"a}che. 56,8 Mio. m³ j{\"a}hrlicher Holzeinschlag in den letzten zehn Jahren wurde zu knapp der H{\"a}lfte stofflich und der Rest energetisch verwertet. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit konnte auf der Basis vom Holz der Buche, die nach Fichte und Kiefer die dritth{\"a}ufigste Baumart in Deutschland ist und 15\% der deutschen Waldfl{\"a}che ausmacht, die Fraktionierung der polymeren Hauptbestandteile mit niedrigem energetischen Einsatz erreicht werden. Hierbei werden in einem nachgeschalteten Extraktionsprozess die beiden Komponenten Hemicellulose und Lignin in fl{\"u}ssiger Form von der finalen festen Cellulosefraktion abgetrennt. Die Extraktion der Hemicellulose erfolgt durch eine Liquid Hot Water (LHW)-Behandlung. Untersucht wird der katalytische Zusatz anorganischer S{\"a}uren wie H₃PO₄ und H₂SO₄. Im Hinblick auf die weitere Verwertung von Lignin zu aromatischen Synthesebausteinen kommt die Organosolv-Extraktion mit einem Ethanol/Wasser-Gemisch zum Einsatz. Von Vorteil ist die weitere Verwendung beider Stoffstr{\"o}me ohne F{\"a}llungsschritt und nachteiliger Verd{\"u}nnung der Hemicellulose.},

Hierf{\"u}r wird Cellulose in der Lignocellulose-Bioraffinerie hergestellt und daraus Hydrolysat gewonnen. Die Pr{\"u}fung der technischen Hydrolysate als Substrate erfolgte anhand eines breiten Spektrums an Bioprodukten, von Kraftstoffen wie Ethanolund Butanol, bis zu den Dicarbons{\"a}uren Itacon- und Bernsteins{\"a}ure. Dabei werden Bakterien, Hefen und Pilze als Produktionsorganismen eingesetzt. Die einzelnen Herstellverfahren stellen unterschiedliche Anforderungen an die Substrathandhabung. Im Fall der Ethanol- und Butanol-Gewinnung kann eine simultane Saccharifizierung und Fermentierung (SSF) durchgef{\"u}hrt werden. Aufgrund der Produkttoxizit{\"a}t erfordert die Butanol-Herstellung dabei eine In-situ-Produktabtrennung durch L{\"o}semittelimpr{\"a}gnierte Partikel. Die Herstellung der beiden Dicarbons{\"a}uren unterscheidet sich in der Sensitivit{\"a}t der verwendeten Mikroorganismen gegen{\"u}ber Inhibitoren, die in Spuren im Hydrolysat enthalten sind. Die Bernteins{\"a}urebildung mit Actinobacillussuccinogenes kann mit unbehandeltem Hydrolysat erfolgen. Dagegen erfordert die Gewinnung von Itacons{\"a}ure mit A. terreus eine Detoxifizierung des Hydrolysats. Insgesamt konnte gezeigt werden, dass s{\"a}mtliche Bioraffinerie-Hydrolysate als Substrate f{\"u}r unterschiedliche Fermentationen geeignet sind.},

  abstract  = {Glucose ist ein prim{\"a}res Zwischenprodukt der Verarbeitung nachwachsender Rohstoffe, wie z. B. Cellulose. Die wertsteigernde Weiterverarbeitung des Monosaccharids erfolgt h{\"a}ufig in Form vonFermentationsprozessen, jedoch kann der Rohstoff auch f{\"u}r zahlreiche chemische Verarbeitungsstufen genutzt werden. Ein großtechnisch relevanter Prozess ist die Herstellung von Glucons{\"a}ure (GS), die u. a. als Nahrungsmittelzusatz (E 574) eingesetzt wird. Die Darstellung der S{\"a}ure erfolgt durch Oxidation von Glucose mit magnetisierbarem Gold-Nano-Katalysator. Die R{\"u}ckgewinnung des Katalysators aus der Reaktionsl{\"o}sung wurde unter Einwirkung eines Magnetfeldgradienten verwirklicht. Die Synthese der magnetischen Goldkatalysatoren (sowohl Tr{\"a}gerpartikel als auch Gold-Nanopartikel) wurde durch nass-chemische F{\"a}llungsreaktionen durchgef{\"u}hrt. Die Charakteristiken der neuen Materialen konnte durch Messungen des PCD-Potenzials, Laserbeugung und REM/EDX untersucht werden. So wurden u. a. Partikeldurchmesser von 25 lm und ein Goldgehaltvon 1,03 \% ermittelt. Weiterhin wurden f{\"u}r die Goldkatalysatoren optimale Reaktionsbedingungen f{\"u}r die Glucoseoxidation im geregelten R{\"u}hrkesselreaktor etabliert. Hierdurch konnten eine Produktselektivit{\"a}t von 100 \% und eine Wiederverwendbarkeit der Partikel {\"u}ber mindestens zehn Zyklen erreicht werden.},

  abstract  = {Die L{\"o}sungsmittelherstellung durch Clostridien konnte wirtschaftlich nicht mit der chemischen Synthese von L{\"o}sungsmitteln auf Erd{\"o}lbasis konkurrieren und wurde in den fr{\"u}hen 1960er Jahren nahezu vollst{\"a}ndig eingestellt. Das Interesse an nachwachsenden Rohstoffen hat in den letzten Jahren zu einem Wiederaufleben der ABE-Fermentation gef{\"u}hrt. Aufgrund seiner h{\"o}heren Energiedichte im Vergleich zu Ethanol ist Biobutanol als Energietr{\"a}gerbesonders interessant und bietet sich z. B. als Produkt einer Bioraffinerie der 2. Generation an. F{\"u}r die beschriebenen Experimente wird durch das Organosolv-Verfahren aufgeschlossenes Buchenholz verwendet. Der Faserstoff wird mithilfe von CTec2-Enzymen hydrolysiert, wobei der erhaltene {\"U}berstand eine Glucosekonzentration von 66 g L⁻¹ aufweist. Auf der Basis dieses Materials k{\"o}nnen mit Clostridium acetobutylicum Butanol-Ausbeuten erzielt werden, die mit denen unter Verwendung von reinen Zuckern vergleichbar sind. Dem Problem der hohen Produktinhibierung wird mit einer In-situ-Produktaufarbeitung begegnet. Mithilfe von L{\"o}sungsmittelimpr{\"a}gnierten Partikeln (SIPs) kann die Produktausbeute drastisch gesteigert werden, indem die gebildeten L{\"o}sungsmittel durch das auf dem Partikel impr{\"a}gnierte L{\"o}sungsmittel w{\"a}hrend der Fermentation extrahiert werden. Zudem wird hierdurch die weitere Produktaufarbeitungstark vereinfacht.},
