Marine microalgae are responsible for about 50% of primary production on the earth, and show high CO2 fixation capacity than higher plants on land (approximately 10 times higher in terms of unit area). Furthermore, they can convert atmospheric CO2 into a variety of substances, and are expected to be used as hosts for the production of oil and other valuable resources. Despite the high...

16. BIOWIN: AI-supported biotechnology for resource-efficient active compound and bio-nylon production

The project aims to develop innovative and sustainable technologies for the production of the antifibrinolytic agent ε-aminocaproic acid and bio-nylon monomers. The production strategies are based on the same artificial metabolic pathways, which will be optimized to maximize production rates. E. coli, Pseudomonas, and cyanobacterial strains are used or developed as production strains. Reaction...

Methylation reactions are highly versatile in the chemical industry, playing a crucial role in both bioenergy and pharmaceuticals. Traditionally, these reactions in the chemical industry rely on strong bases, metal catalysts, and often toxic methyl group donors such as methyl halides and methyl sulfates, requiring extreme conditions like high temperatures, pressures, and pH levels. However,...

26. The catabolic system of lignin-derived aromatic compounds in Sphingobium lignivorans SYK-6 and its application to lignin valorization

Eiji MASAI

This research group has investigated cultivation of marine microalgae using large outdoor ponds, and developed basic technologies for biomass production as well as valuable compound production. In addition, the group has obtained several candidate microalgal strains with superior carbon fixation capacity. In this study, we will select candidate strains that are available for biomass production...

20. Tapping new feedstocks for biological synthesis using electrochemical hydrogenations: production of adipic acid from lignin-derived phenols

Micjel C. MOREJÓN, Navid SAEDI, Alexander FRANZ, Lea SEIBERT, Rohan KARANDE, Falk HARNISCH

A sustainable circular economy requires linking different sectors and scales [1]. The sector of electric power production and storage and the sector of production of chemicals and fuels can be linked in electrobiorefineires [2]. A highly important role for electrosynthesis in electrobiorefinieres play electrochemical hydrogenations and hydrodeoxygenations [3]. Here we showcase an...
