Quality living through chemurgy and green chemistry
Quality living through chemurgy and green chemistry[electronic resource] /edited by Peter C.K. Lau. - Berlin, Heidelberg :Springer Berlin Heidelberg :2016. - xx, 369 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Green chemistry and sustainable technology,2196-6982. - Green chemistry and sustainable technology..

Green Chemistry and Sustainability -- Sustainable Production of Omega-3 Eicosapentaenoic Acid by Fermentation of Metabolically Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica -- Towards Fermentative Production of Succinic Acid, Adipic Acid and Caprolactam - An Industrial Perspective -- Specialty Enzymes for Chemical Needs -- Characterization and Engineering of Seaweed Degrading Enzymes for Biofuels and Biochemicals Production -- Ex Vivo Enzymatic Conversion of Non-food Cellulose Biomass to Starch -- Biorefinery of Lignocellulosics for Biofuels and Biochemicals -- Biofuels Production from Renewable Feedstocks -- Lignin: A Platform for Renewable Aromatic Polymeric Materials -- Green Processes for Lignin Conversion -- Production of Sialic Acid and Its Derivatives by Metabolic Engineering of Escherichia coli -- Phenolics Value Chain and L-Lactic Acid Bioproduction from Agricultural Biomass -- Regional Pillars of Competitiveness in Chemurgy and Green Chemistry.

This book is intended to give readers an appreciation of what the future holds, as cutting-edge technologies in synthetic biology and pathway engineering and advanced bioprocessing development pave the way for providing goods and services to benefit humankind that are based on the synergy of two biomasses - i.e. of what a renewable feedstock could yield and an infinite microbial biomass could provide in terms of enzymes and biocatalysts. This 13-chapter book, with an introductory treatise on the guiding principles of green chemistry and engineering metrics, brings together a broad range of research and innovation agendas and perspectives from industries, academia and government laboratories using renewable feedstocks that include macroalgae and lignins. In addition, social-economic aspects and the pillars of competitiveness in regional cluster development are explored as we transition from fossil-fuel-based economies to a circular bioeconomy, with chemurgy and green chemistry being implicit to the innovation movement. The bulk of the book covers specific applications including the bioproduction of amino sugars, dicarboxylic acids, omega-3 fatty acids, starch and fermentable sugars from lignocellulosic materials, and phenolics as building blocks for polymer synthesis. Enzymatic systems for accessing chiral and special-purpose chemicals, as well as the development of specialized enzymes from macroalgae for biofuel and biochemical production are also addressed. Research gaps, hurdles to overcome in various biological processes, and present achievements in the production of biofuels and biochemicals from lignocellulosic materials are discussed. Going beyond the conventional expectation of discussing the production of drop-in chemicals, the book instead emphasizes how the potential of new chemicals and materials can be harnessed through innovative thinking and research. As such, it provides an invaluable reference source for researchers and graduate students interested in Chemurgy and Green Chemistry, as well as for practitioners in the field of industrial biotechnology and biobased industry. Peter C.K. Lau is a Distinguished Professor at Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and an Adjunct Professor at the Departments of Chemistry and Microbiology & Immunology, McGill University, Canada.
