Additives Enhancing Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Wheat Straw to Obtain Fermentable Sugar. Appl Biochem Biotechnol 2023; 195:1059-1071. [PMID: 36308636 DOI: 10.1007/s12010-022-04200-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
In order to explore the effect of additives on enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose biomass, the effect of two different additives, Triton X-100 (TX-100) and Bovine serum albumin (BSA), enzyme dosages, and additive concentrations on enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain fermentable sugar using cellulose extracted from wheat straw (WS) as the substrate was investigated in this study. An enzymatic hydrolysis kinetic model was used to successfully describe the enzymatic hydrolysis in a heterogeneous system. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to determine the effect of extraction and enzymatic hydrolysis on the composition and structure of the samples. The results showed that the total reducing sugar concentration of the raw was 1.535 g/L at 120 h, but that of the extracted cellulose (EC) increased to 5.087 g/L at 120 h, indicating that EC from WS is more conducive to enzymatic hydrolysis compared with the raw. The total reducing sugar concentration with the addition of the TX-100 was 6.737 g/L at 120 h, which was greater than that with the addition of the BSA (5.728 g/L at 120 h), indicating that the addition of two additives improved the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency, especially TX-100. The kinetic studies showed that the initial enzymatic hydrolysis reaction rate (Km) of the EC was more than four times greater than that of the raw. The Km of the EC added with TX-100 and BSA were increased by 29.50% and 22.89% compared with that of the EC without the addition of additive. The addition of additives is an effective method for enhancing enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency and fermentable sugar production from lignocellulosic biomass.

Positive role of non-catalytic proteins on mitigating inhibitory effects of lignin and enhancing cellulase activity in enzymatic hydrolysis: Application, mechanism, and prospective. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 215:114291. [PMID: 36103929 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2022.114291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2022] [Revised: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 09/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Fermentable sugar production from lignocellulosic biomass has received considerable attention and has been dramatic progress recently. However, due to low enzymatic hydrolysis (EH) yields and rates, a high dosage of the costly enzyme is required, which is a bottleneck for commercial applications. Over the last decades, various strategies have been developed to reduce cellulase enzyme costs. The progress of the non-catalytic additive proteins in mitigating inhibition in EH is discussed in detail in this review. The low efficiency of EH is mostly due to soluble lignin compounds, insoluble lignin, and harsh thermal and mechanical conditions of the EH process. Adding non-catalytic proteins into the EH is considered a simple and efficient approach to boost hydrolysis yield. This review discussed the multiple mechanical steps involved in the EH process. The effect of physicochemical properties of modified lignin on EH and its interaction with cellulase and cellulose are identified and discussed, which include hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic, electrostatic, and cation-π interactions, as well as physical barriers. Moreover, the effects of different conditions of EH that lead to cellulase deactivation by thermal and mechanical mechanisms are also explained. Finally, recent advances in the development, potential mechanisms, and economic feasibility of non-catalytic proteins on EH are evaluated and perspectives are presented.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) has remained a latent alternative resource to be the main substitute for oil and its derivatives in a biorefinery concept. However, its complex structure and the underdeveloped technologies for its large-scale processing keep it in a state of constant study trying to establish a consolidated process. In intensive processes, enzymes have been shown to be important molecules for the fractionation and conversion of LCB into biofuels and high-value-added molecules. However, operational challenges must be overcome before enzyme technology can be the main resource for obtaining second-generation sugars. The use of additives is shown to be a suitable strategy to improve the saccharification process. This review describes the mechanisms, roles, and effects of using additives, such as surfactants, biosurfactants, and non-catalytic proteins, separately and integrated into the enzymatic hydrolysis process of lignocellulosic biomass. In doing so, it provides a technical background in which operational biomass processing hurdles such as solids and enzymatic loadings, pretreatment burdens, and the unproductive adsorption phenomenon can be addressed.

Abstract
Global interest in lignocellulosic biorefineries has increased in the recent past due to technological advancements in sustainable and cost-effective production of numerous commodity and speciality chemicals and fuels from renewable lignocellulosic biomass (LCB). As a result, the market value of biorefinery products has also increased over the time, with an estimated worth of USD 867.7 billion by 2025. However, biorefinery operations, especially enzymatic hydrolysis, suffer from many challenges that limits the cost-effectiveness of conversion of LCB. Therefore, it is essential to understand and address these challenges in future biorefineries. The paper focuses on recent trends and challenges in enzymatic hydrolysis of LCB during lignocellulosic biorefinery operation for greener synthesis of energy, fuels, chemicals and other high-value products. Insights into the gaps in knowledge and technological challenges have also been addressed together with focus on future research needs and perspectives of enzymatic hydrolysis of LCB for biorefinery applications.
