Abstract
High concentration of aluminum (Al) in drinking water is a major intake source of it and can result in serious diseases. Rice straw (RS) as lignocellulosic biomasses has great potential to peak up metal ions from aqueous environment, however, feasibility of Al3+ removal by RS has not been investigated yet. The present study aimed to evaluate the capacity of RS as a novel biosorbent for Al3+ from drinking water. Biosorption characteristics of RS were surveyed through several biological and physiochemical techniques. Additionally, isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamic studies were evaluated using various common models. BET profiles revealed the presence of textural mesoporosity on heterogeneous surface, which leading to improve the biosorption capacity. SEM-EDS analysis confirmed the morphological changes as irregularly particles of Al3+ on external surface via physical mechanism. The results of bioassays and FTIR analysis showed carboxylic and hydroxyl groups in lignin and pectin as the main Al3+ binding site. The batch experimental results showed the maximum biosorption capacity of 283.09 mg/g and removal efficiency of 94.86% for Al3+ at biosorbent dosage of 0.05 g/100 mL, contact time of 50 min, pH 7.5, and temperature of 30 °C. The Freundlich model has the best match and suggests the biosorption process as a multi-layer. According to the results of free activation energy, biosorption process was also physical. As thermodynamic result, the biosorption behavior was found spontaneous and endothermic. Consequently, results showed RS as an economical biosorbent for reducing Al3+ of drinking water. Meanwhile, it can be considered as one of the most appropriate methods for management of rice paddies waste.

Abstract
Rice straw (RS), an agricultural residue rich in carbohydrates, has substantial potential for bioethanol production. However, the presence of lignin impedes access to these carbohydrates, hindering efficient carbohydrate-to-bioethanol conversion. Here, we expressed versatile peroxidase (VP), a lignin-degrading enzyme, in Pichia pastoris and used it to delignify RS at 30 °C using a membrane bioreactor that continuously discarded the degraded lignin. Klason lignin analysis revealed that VP-treatment led to 35% delignification of RS. We then investigated the delignified RS by SEC, FTIR, and SEM. The results revealed the changes of RS caused by VP-mediated delignification. Additionally, we compared the saccharification and fermentation yields between RSs treated with and without VP, VP-RS, and Ctrl-RS, respectively. This examination unveiled an improvement in glucose and bioethanol production, VP-RS exhibiting up to 1.5-fold and 1.4-fold production, respectively. These findings underscore the potential of VP for delignifying RS and enhancing bioethanol production through an eco-friendly approach.

Abstract
Saccharum ravannae, known as "Ekra" in the Northeast region of India, is an elephant grass species that abundantly grows in the natural habitat of Assam. This study aims to utilize this wild grass species and extract alkaline lignin of high purity through KOH-mediated alkaline hydrothermal pretreatment using the Oil bath process. Lignin recovery was optimized using RSM (response surface methodology) combined with a central composite model. Three process parameters, namely KOH concentration (1-3 %), reaction time (50-200 min), and solid loading (5-15 %), varied to optimize the combined effect of these parameters. RSM predicted a maximum lignin recovery of 15.38 g/100 g of raw biomass at optimum conditions (2.4 % KOH, 6.41 % solid loading, 176.57 min). Three experimental runs were performed at optimum conditions, and 15.81 ± 0.32 g/100 g lignin recovery was obtained, thus verifying the predicted result. Maximum 93.7 % purity of extracted lignin was achieved in a different operating condition (3 % KOH, 10 % solid loading, 125 min). The commercial and extracted alkaline lignin with maximum purity was characterized by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The extracted lignin shows higher phenolic content and more functional groups than commercial lignin and can be used for future applications.

Abstract
Laccases have been broadly applied as a multitasking biocatalyst in various industries, but their applications tend to be limited by easy deactivation, lack of adequate stability, and susceptibility under complex conditions. Identifying stable laccase as a green-biocatalyst is crucial for developing cost-effective biorefining processes. In this direction, we attempted in-silico screening a stable metagenome-derived laccase (PersiLac1) from tannery wastewater in a complex environment. The laccase exhibited high thermostability, retaining 53.19% activity after 180 min at 70 °C, and it was stable in a wide range of pH (4.0-9.0). After 33 days of storage at 50°C, pH 6.0, the enzyme retained 71.65% of its activity. Various metal ions, inhibitors, and organic solvents showed that PersiLac1 has a stable structure. The stable PersiLac1 could successfully remove lignin and phenolic from quinoa husk and rice straw. In the separate hydrolysis and fermentation process (SHF) after 72 h, hydrolysis was obtained 100% and 73.4% for quinoa husk and rice straw, and fermentation by the S. cerevisiae was be produced 41.46 g/L and 27.75g/L ethanol, respectively. Results signified that the novel lignin-degrading enzyme was confirmed to have great potential for industrial application as a green-biocatalyst based on enzymatically triggered to delignification and detoxify lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
This work is focused on optimising a low-temperature delignification as holocellulose purification pretreatment of Platanus acerifolia leaf waste for second-bioethanol production. Delignification was accomplished by acid-oxidative digestion using green reagents: acetic acid and 30% hydrogen peroxide 1:1. The effect of reaction time (30–90 min), temperature (60–90 °C), and solid loading (5–15 g solid/20 g liquid) on delignification and solid fraction yield were studied. The process parameters were optimised using the Box–Behnken experimental design. The highest attained lignin removal efficiency was larger than 80%. The optimised conditions of delignification, while maximising holocellulose yield, pointed to using the minimum temperature of the examined range. Analysis of variance on the solid fraction yield and the lignin removal suggested a linear model with a negative influence of the temperature on the yield. Furthermore, a negative effect of the solid loading and low effect of temperature and time was found on the degree of delignification. Then the temperature range was extended back to 60 °C, providing 71% holocellulose yield and 70% while improving energy efficiency by working at a lower temperature. Successful lignin removal was confirmed using confocal laser scanning microscopy. As evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, the solid structure presented an increased exposition of the cellulose fibre structure.

Abstract
The purpose of this work was to use a microwave-assisted technique to improve and accelerate lignin removal from rice straw biomass. Using a Box-Behnken experimental design, the effect of four critical process parameters, viz. microwave power (480-800 W), irradiation time (4-12 min), bleaching solution concentration (0.4-3.0 %), and bleaching time (1-5 h) on the delignification (%) was investigated, and the process was optimised using response surface methodology. The experimental data best fitted a quadratic model with an R2 of 0.9964. The optimized value of process parameters (in aforementioned sequence) was found to be 671 W, 8.66 min, 2.67 %, and 1 h respectively, for the best delignification of 93.51 percent.The absence of lignin peaks (1516 and 1739 cm-1) was corroborated by deconstructed morphological structure and higher crystallinity in the optimised delignified sample (53.7 %).

Abstract
In this paper, we describe an experimental study on the hot alkali extraction of hemicelluloses from wheat straw and corn stalks, two of the most common lignocellulosic biomass constituents in Romania. The chemical compositions of the raw materials were determined analytically, and the relevant chemical components were cellulose, hemicelluloses, lignin, and ash. Using the response surface methodology, the optimum values of the hot alkaline extraction parameters, i.e., time, temperature, and NaOH concentration, were identified and experimentally validated. The physicochemical characterization of the isolated hemicelluloses was performed using HPLC, FTIR, TG, DTG, and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The main hemicellulose components identified experimentally were xylan, arabinan, and glucan. The study emphasizes that both corn stalks and wheat straw are suitable as raw materials for hemicellulose extraction, highlighting the advantages of alkaline pretreatments and showing that optimization methods can further improve the process efficiency.

Abstract
This paper describes a study of fed-batch SSFR (simultaneous saccharification, fermentation and recovery) for butanol production from alkaline-pretreated rice straw (RS) in a 2-L stirred tank reactor. The initial solid (9.2% w/v) and enzyme (19.9 FPU g-dw-1) loadings were previously optimized by 50-mL batch SSF assays. Maximum butanol concentration of 24.80 g L-1 was obtained after three biomass feedings that doubled the RS load (18.4% w/v). Butanol productivity (0.344 g L-1h-1) also increased two-fold in comparison with batch SSF without recovery (0.170 g L-1h-1). Although fed-batch SSFR was able to operate with a single initial enzyme dosage, an extra dosage of nutrients was required with the biomass additions to achieve this high productivity. The study showed that SSFR can efficiently improve butanol production from a lignocellulosic biomass accompanied by the efficient use of the enzyme.

Abstract
Open field burning of crop residue causes severe air pollution and greenhouse gas emission contributing to global warming. In order to seek an alternative, the current study was initiated to explore the prospective of lignocellulolytic microbes to expedite in situ decomposition of crop residues. Field trials on farmers' field were conducted in the state of Haryana and Maharashtra, to target the burning of rice and wheat residue and sugarcane trash, respectively. A comparative study among crop residue removal (CRR), crop residue burning (CRB) and in situ decomposition of crop residues (IND) revealed that IND of rice and wheat residues took 30 days whereas IND of sugarcane trash took 45 days. The decomposition status was assessed by determining the initial and final lignin to cellulose ratio which increased significantly from 0.23 to 0.25, 0.21 to 0.23 and 0.24 to 0.27 for rice, wheat residues and sugarcane trash, respectively. No yield loss was noticed in IND for both rice-wheat system and sugarcane-based system; rather IND showed relatively better crop yield as well as soil health parameters than CRB and CRR. Furthermore, the environmental impact assessment of residue burning indicated a substantial loss of nutrients (28-31, 23-25 and 51-77 kg ha-1 of N+P2O5+K2O for rice, wheat and sugarcane residue) as well as the emission of pollutants to the atmosphere. However, more field trials, as well as refinement of the technology, are warranted to validate and establish the positive potential of in situ decomposition of crop residue to make it a successful solution against the crop residue burning.

Abstract
Value-added chemicals, including phenolic compounds, can be generated through lignocellulosic biomass conversion via either biological or chemical pretreatment. Currently vanillin is one of the most valuable of these products that has been shown to be extractable on an industrial scale. This study demonstrates the potential of using rice straw inoculated with Serpula lacrymans, which produced a mixture of high value bio-based compounds including vanillin. Key extraction conditions were identified to be the volume of solvent used and extraction time, which were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). The vanillin compounds extracted from rice straw solid state fermentation (SSF) was confirmed through LC-ESI MS/MS in selective ion mode. The optimum concentration and yield differed depending on the solvent, which was predicted using 60 mL ethyl acetate for 160 min were 0.408% and 3.957 μg g−1 respectively. In comparison, when ethanol was used, the highest concentration and yields of vanillin were 0.165% and 2.596 μg g−1. These were achieved using 40 mL of solvent, and extraction time increased to 248 min. The results confirm that fungal conversion of rice straw to vanillin could consequently offer a cost-effect alternative to other modes of production.

Abstract
A viable optimization-simulation strategy by coupling Aspen HYSYS with MATLAB. The optimization strategy has been applied to a complex complete saturated-gas plant. Different stochastic algorithms have been applied. The benefits and shortcoming of each method have been investigated. The implemented strategy precisely reached the optimum operating conditions.
An optimization-simulation strategy has been applied by coupling a commercial process simulator (Aspen HYSYS®) with a programming tool (MATLAB®) to produce a precise steady state simulation-based optimization of a whole green-field saturated gas plant as a real case study. The plant has more than 100-components and comprises interacting three-phase fractionation towers, pumps, compressors and exchangers. The literature predominantly uses this coupling to optimize individual units at small scales, while paying more attention to optimizing discrete design decisions. However, bridging the gap to scalable continuous design variables is indispensable for industry. The strategy adopted is a merge between sensitivity analysis and constrained bounding of the variables along with stochastic optimization algorithms from MATLAB® such as genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) techniques. The benefits and shortcomings of each optimization technique have been investigated in terms of defined inputs, performance, and finally the elapsed time for such highly complex case study. Although, both GA and PSO were satisfactory for the optimization, the GA provided greater confidence in optimization with wider ranges of constrained bounds. The implemented strategy precisely reached the best operating conditions, within the range covered, by minimizing the total annual cost while maintaining at least 92% butane recovery as a process guarantee for the whole plant. The optimization-simulation strategy applied in the current work is recommended to be used in brownfields to optimize the operating conditions since they are susceptible to continuous changes in feedstock conditions.
