Nonrenewable fossil fuels and their serious environmental impact have forced to develop
renewable & sustainable energy sources. In this scenario, cellulases have found extensive …

Biorefineries are an essential step towards implementing a circular economy in the long
term. They are based on renewable raw materials and must be designed holistically …

Herein, we studied two strains of halophilic fungi (Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus
penicillioides) as potential potent sources of hydrolases under solid-state fermentation …

Global demand for biotechnological products has increased steadily over the years. Thus,
need for optimized processes and reduced costs appear as a key factor in the success of …

Fusarium is genetically diverse and widely distributed geographically. It is one of the genera
with more endophytes (which cause no damage to the host plants). This review highlights …

The transition towards a bio-based economy has led to an unprecedented surge in fresh
water consumption that renders biofuel a high water footprint product. The depleting fresh …

Realising a fully circular bioeconomy requires the valorisation of lignocellulosic biomass.
Cellulose is the most attractive component of lignocellulose but depolymerisation is …

Global water scarcity at an alarming stage has triggered the interest of many
environmentalists and global researchers. Use of freshwater in biomass-based industries …

Cellulase and hemicellulase activities are considered to the major bottlenecks in the
lignocellulosic biorefinery process, especially in an enzyme cocktail lacking β-glucosidase …

Lignocellulosic biorefineries are expected to combat the problems of depletion of fossil
resources by large-scale production of chemicals and biofuels in future. Research studies in …
