Tamilselvan R, Immanuel Selwynraj A. Enhancing biogas generation from lignocellulosic biomass through biological pretreatment: Exploring the role of ruminant microbes and anaerobic fungi. Anaerobe 2024; 85:102815. [PMID: 38145708 DOI: 10.1016/j.anaerobe.2023.102815] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023]
Abstract
Biogas production from Lignocellulosic Biomass (LB) via anaerobic digestion (AD) has gained attention for its potential in self-sustainability. However, the recalcitrance of LB cell walls pose a challenge to its degradability and biogas generation. Therefore, pretreatment of LB is necessary to enhance lignin removal and increase degradability. Among the different approaches, environmentally friendly biological pretreatment ispromising as it avoids the production of inhibitors. The ruminal microbial community, including anaerobic fungi, bacteria, and protozoa, has shown an ability to effectively degrade LB through biomechanical and microbial penetration of refractory cell structures. In this review, we provide an overview of ruminant microbes dominating LB's AD, their degradation mechanism, and the bioaugmentation of the rumen. We also explore the potential cultivation of anaerobic fungi from the rumen, their enzyme potential, and their role in AD. The rumen ecosystem, comprising both bacteria and fungi, plays a crucial role in enhancing AD. This comprehensive review delves into the intricacies of ruminant microorganisms' adhesion to plant cells, elucidates degradation mechanisms, and explores integrated pretreatment approaches for the effective utilization of LB, minimizing the impact of inhibitors. The discussion underscores the considerable potential of ruminant microbes in pretreating LB, paving the way for sustainable biogas production. Optimizing fungal colonization and ligninolytic enzyme production, such as manganese peroxidase and laccase, significantly enhances the efficiency of fungal pretreatment. Integrating anaerobic fungi through bioaugmentation during mainstream processing demonstrably increases methane production. This study opens promising avenues for further research and development of these microorganisms for bioenergy production.

Valorization of pretreated biogas digestate with black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens, L; Diptera: Stratiomyidae) larvae. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 319:115529. [PMID: 35816966 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2022.115529] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 06/08/2022] [Accepted: 06/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Increasing concerns related to the negative environmental impacts of food waste havemotivated the development of new solutions to complete the waste cycle of organic residues. One particular "waste" product, the solid digestate from anaerobic digestion, has been identified for further bioprocessing. Black soldier fly (BSF, Hermetia illucens) larvae are known for their great potential in the processing of organic waste. In this study, this potential was investigated to further process the digestate waste stream. Digestate is considered a low potential source of nutrients for larvae due to the presence of different fiber fractions. However, the lignocellulosic matter in this residue could be enzymatically hydrolyzed to release residual carbohydrates. For this study, digestate from a full-scale anaerobic digestion plant in Quebec (Canada) which processes a range of feedstocks (fruits, vegetables, garden wastes, sludge derived from dairy processing and wastewater treatment) was sourced. Digestate was treated with Accelerase® DUET enzyme complex to hydrolyze lignocellulosic matter and compared to a standard diet. For each treatment, 600 four-day old larvae were fed daily with 160 g (70% relative humidity) of diets for 6 days and harvested 3 days later. Although their growth and total biomass were significantly lower than the standard diet, larvae fed on hydrolyzed digestate were almost two times larger than the larvae fed on crude digestate. Furthermore, the content of organic matter, lipids and minerals in the diets and frass were analyzed. Finally, the feasibility of applying BSF treatment for digestate valorization is discussed. According to this study, enzyme-treated digestate does not allow efficient larval growth compared to the standard diet. The development of a more effective method of pretreatment is required for BSF larvae to become an eco-friendly solution for digestate valorization.

Abstract
Volatile fatty acids (VFA), the secondary metabolite of microbial fermentation, are used in a wide range of industries for production of commercially valuable chemicals. In this review, the fermentative production of VFAs by both pure as well mixed microbial cultures is highlighted along with the strategies for enhancing the VFA production through innovations in existing approaches. Role of conventionally applied tools for the optimization of operational parameters such as pH, temperature, retention time, organic loading rate, and headspace pressure has been discussed. Furthermore, a comparative assessment of above strategies on VFA production has been done with alternate developments such as co-fermentation, substrate pre-treatment, and in situ removal from fermented broth. The review also highlights the applications of different bioreactor geometries in the optimum production of VFAs and how metagenomic tools could provide a detailed insight into the microbial communities and their functional attributes that could be subjected to metabolic engineering for the efficient production of VFAs.

Abstract
The second (lignocellulosic biomass and industrial wastes) and third (algal biomass) generation feedstocks gained substantial interest as a source of various value-added chemicals, produced by fermentation. Lactic acid is a valuable platform chemical with both traditional and newer applications in many industries. The successful fractionation, separation, and hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass result in sugars’ rich raw material for lactic acid fermentation. This review paper aims to summarize the investigations and progress in the last 5 years in lactic acid production from inexpensive and renewable resources. Different aspects are discussed—the type of raw materials, pretreatment and detoxification methods, lactic acid-producers (bacteria, fungi, and yeasts), use of genetically manipulated microorganisms, separation techniques, different approaches of process organization, as well as main challenges, and possible solutions for process optimization.

Abstract
Corn silage was treated by white rot fungi (WRF) to investigate the effect of pretreatment on material's ability to produce methane in anaerobic digestion (AD). The selective fungi Pleurotus ostreatus and Dichomitus squalens promoted biogas generation, whereas the non-selective Trametes versicolor and Irpex lacteus had negative effect. Cumulative methane production after 10-day pretreatment with P. ostreatus at 28 °C rose 1.55-fold. The longer pretreatments of 30 and 60-days had smaller effect. When the pretreatment with P. ostreatus was carried out at 40 °C a high H2S release affected the AD process. Effect of WRF action dependent on the type of corn silage. With typical corn silage, the lignin depolymerisation raised the methane generation from 0.301 to 0.465 m3kgVS-1. In contrast, extensive decomposition of hemicellulose in hybrid corn silage deteriorated the effect of pretreatment on methane production.

Abstract
The increase in global population size over the past 100 decades has doubled the requirements for energy resources. To mitigate the limited fossil fuel available, new clean energy sources being environmental sustainable for replacement of traditional energy sources are explored to supplement the current scarcity. Biomass containing lignin and cellulose is the main raw material to replace fossil energy given its abundance and lower emission of greenhouse gases and NOx when transformed into energy. Bacteria, fungi and algae decompose lignocellulose leading to generation of hydrogen, methane, bioethanol and biodiesel being the clean energy used for heating, power generation and the automobile industry. Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) uses microorganisms to decompose biomass in wastewater to generate electricity and remove heavy metals in wastewater. Biomass contains cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin and other biomacromolecules which need hydrolyzation for conversion into small molecules by corresponding enzymes in order to be utilized by microorganisms. This paper discusses microbial decomposition of biomass into clean energy and the five major ways of clean energy production, and its economic benefits for future renewable energy security.

Abstract
Lignin modifying or extracellular enzymes secreted by the white rot fungi have the ability of degrading wide range of lignocellulosic substrates and organic pollutants. Lignocellulosic biomass, despite being a renewable source of energy, is difficult to hydrolyse (hydrolysis being rate-limiting stage in anaerobic digestion process). Various pre-treatment techniques like physical, chemical, thermo-chemical and biological to enhance the accessibility of microbes to carbohydrates have been studied. Recently, usage of white- rot fungi in a biological pre-treatment technique have received renewed interest due to its low cost and eco-friendly nature. This review deals with: a) lignocellulosic biomass recalcitrance, b) various pre-treatment techniques and its economic feasibility, c) delignification and hydrolysis mechanism using white-rot fungi, d) factors controlling white-rot fungi pre- treatment process, and e) improvement in methane production through solid-state anaerobic digestion of white-rot fungi pre-treated lignocellulosic biomass. Finally a future perspective is also included.

Abstract
The extensive use of fossil fuels and the environmental effect of their combustion products have attracted researchers to look into renewable energy sources. In addition, global mass production of waste has motivated communities to recycle and reuse the waste in a sustainable way to lower landfill waste and associated problems. The development of waste to energy (WtE) technology including the production of bioenergy, e.g. biogas produced from various waste through Anaerobic Digestion (AD), is considered one of the potential measures to achieve the sustainable development goals of the United Nations (UN). Therefore, this study reviews the most recent studies from relevant academic literature on WtE technology (particularly AD technology) for biogas production and the application of a solar-assisted biodigester (SAB) system aimed at improving performance. In addition, socio-economic factors, challenges, and perspectives have been reported. From the analysis of different technologies, further work on effective low-cost technologies is recommended, especially using SAB system upgrading and leveraging the opportunities of this system. The study found that the performance of the AD system is affected by a variety of factors and that different approaches can be applied to improve performance. It has also been found that solar energy systems efficiently raise the biogas digester temperature and through this, they maximize the biogas yield under optimum conditions. The study revealed that the solar-assisted AD system produces less pollution and improves performance compared to the conventional AD system.

Abstract
In this study, Rhizopus oligosporus MTCC 556 (Rhizopus) treated rice bran was utilized for the anaerobic bacterial fermentative hydrogen production. The Enterobacter aerogenes MTCC 2822 with nutrients addition fermented the treated rice bran to give hydrogen yield of 5.4 mmol H2/g of biomass. A closely similar hydrogen yield of 4.6 mmol H2/g of biomass was obtained from the treated rice bran under the condition without nutrients addition, suggesting the potential of the fungus treatment to produce hydrogen from nutrient-free fermentation. The pretreated rice bran showed efficient hydrogen production upon anaerobic fermentation without nutrients addition. The Rhizopus pretreated biomass can provide required nutrients for the enhancement of hydrogen yield by anaerobic fermentation. The Rhizopus pretreatment of rice bran enhanced the hydrogen production under nutrient-free conditions which reduced the overall production cost. The findings provide a promising solution to efficiently utilize the rice bran waste for low cost hydrogen production.

Abstract
Oil and grease, carbohydrate, protein, and lignin are the main constituents of high strength wastewaters such as dairy wastewater, cheese whey wastewater, distillery wastewater, pulp and paper mill wastewater, and slaughterhouse wastewaters. These constituents have contributed to various operational problems faced by the high-rate anaerobic bioreactor (HRAB). During the hydrolysis stage of anaerobic digestion (AD), these constituents can be hydrolyzed. Since hydrolysis is known to be the rate-limiting step of AD, the overall AD can be enhanced by improving the hydrolysis stage. This can be done by introducing pretreatment that targets the degradation of these constituents. This review mainly focuses on the biological pretreatment on various high-strength wastewaters by using different types of enzymes namely lipase, amylase, protease, and ligninolytic enzymes which are responsible for catalyzing the degradation of oil and grease, carbohydrate, protein, and lignin respectively. This review provides a summary of enzymatic systems involved in enhancing the hydrolysis stage and consequently improve biogas production. The results show that the use of enzymes improves the biogas production in the range of 7 to 76%. Though these improvements are highly dependent on the operating conditions of pretreatment and the types of substrates. Therefore, the critical parameters that would affect the effectiveness of pretreatment are also discussed. This review paper will serve as a useful piece of information to those industries that face difficulties in treating their high-strength wastewaters for the appropriate process, equipment selection, and design of an anaerobic enzymatic system. However, more intensive studies on the optimum operating conditions of pretreatment in a larger-scale and synergistic effects between enzymes are necessary to make the enzymatic pretreatment economically feasible.

Abstract
Heterogeneity and rigidity of lignocellulose causing resistance to its deconstruction have provided technical and economic challenges in the current biomass conversion processes. Lignin has been considered as a crucial recalcitrance component in biomass utilization. An in-depth understanding of lignin properties and their influences on biomass conversion can provide clues to improve biomass utilization. Also, utilization of lignin can significantly increase the economic viability of biorefinery. Recent lignin-targeting pretreatments have aimed not only to overcome recalcitrance for biomass conversion but also to selectively fractionate lignin for lignin valorization. Numerous studies have been conducted in biomass characteristics and conversion technologies, and the role of lignin is critical for lignin valorization and biomass pretreatment development. This review provides a comprehensive review of lignin-related biomass characteristics, the impact of lignin on the biological conversion of biomass, and recent lignin-targeting pretreatment strategies. The desired lignin properties in biorefinery and future pretreatment directions are also discussed.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is recalcitrant due to its heterogeneous structure, which is one of the major limitations for its use as a feedstock for methane production. Although different pretreatment methods are being used, intermediaries formed are known to show adverse effect on microorganisms involved in methane formation. This review, apart from highlighting the efficiency and limitations of the different pretreatment methods from engineering, chemical, and biochemical point of views, will discuss the strategies to increase the carbon recovery in the form of methane by way of amending pretreatments to lower inhibitory effects on microbial groups and by optimizing process conditions.

Abstract
This study investigated the production of biogas, volatile fatty acids (VFAs), and other soluble organic from lignocellulosic biomass by two microbial communities (i.e. rumen fluid and anaerobic sludge). Four types of abundant lignocellulosic biomass (i.e. wheat straw, oaten hay, lurence hay and corn silage) found in Australia were used. The results show that rumen microbes produced four-time higher VFAs level than that of anaerobic sludge reactors, indicating the possible application of rumen microorganism for VFAs generation from lignocellulosic biomass. VFA production in the rumen fluid reactors was probably due to the presence of specific hydrolytic and acidogenic bacteria (e.g. Fibrobacter and Prevotella). VFA production corroborated from the observation of pH drop in the rumen fluid reactors indicated hydrolytic and acidogenic inhibition, suggesting the continuous extraction of VFAs from the reactor. Anaerobic sludge reactors on the other hand, produced more biogas than that of rumen fluid reactors. This observation was consistent with the abundance of methanogens in anaerobic sludge inoculum (3.98% of total microbes) compared to rumen fluid (0.11%). VFA production from lignocellulosic biomass is the building block chemical for bioplastic, biohydrogen and biofuel. The results from this study provide important foundation for the development of engineered systems to generate VFAs from lignocellulosic biomass.

WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2019; 85:464-476.

Abstract
Solid State Anaerobic Digestion (SSAD) of fungal pretreated wheat straw was evaluated in a leach bed reactor. During a first experiment, the effect of Substrate/Inoculum (S/I) ratios on the start-up phase was investigated. High S/I increased methane productivity but also raised the risk of reactor failure due to Volatile Fatty Acid (VFA) accumulation. With S/I ratios between 1.2 and 3.6 (Volatile Solid (VS) basis), the SSAD start-up using wheat straw was successful. Moreover, reactors were able to recover from acidification when the Total VFA/alkalinity ratio was lower than 2 gHAc_eq/gCaCO3, with VFA concentrations lower than 10 g/L and a pH close to 5.5. The conventional threshold of 0.6 gHAc_eq/gCaCO3 for stable wet AD is therefore not adapted to SSAD. During a second experiment, after the wheat straw was submitted to a fungal pretreatment in a non-sterile pilot-scale reactor, it was digested with an S/I ratio of 2.8-2.9. Under batch SSAD conditions, the biodegradability of pretreated wheat straw was slightly improved in comparison to the control (254 versus 215 NmL/g VS, respectively). Considering mass losses occurring during the pretreatment step, suboptimal pretreatment conditions caused a slightly lower methane production (161 versus 171 NmL/gTSinitial after 60-days anaerobic digestion). Nevertheless, pretreatment improved the start-up phase with lower acidification relative to controls. It would be particularly beneficial to improve the methane production in reactors with short reaction times.

Abstract
Organic solid wastes (OSWs) should be regarded as valuable resources rather than dead-end landfill waste that causes public health and odor concerns. Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an ideal approach for managing organic solid waste issues and involves using a group of anaerobic microorganisms to transform OSWs into useful products. In this review, over 100 publications related to AD of OSWs have been compiled, discussed, and analyzed. A comprehensive analysis of the environmental and safety impacts of AD, its key environmental factors, co-digestion, and pretreatment, as well as the AD of OSWs by various anaerobic microbes uncovered by high throughput sequencing-based approaches, is presented. The purpose of this review is to provide an outline of the current knowledge of AD processes from a multi-angle perspective. A comprehensive understanding of AD of OSWs and genome-enabled biology development could be helpful for providing up-to-date knowledge of AD, developing it, overcoming its drawbacks and, ultimately, improving global waste control for more efficient environmental management. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Anaerobic digestion widely considered as a promising waste biomass disposal treatment approach, is attracting increasing interest in all corners of the globe. However, due to the specific features of different types of waste biomass, the bioenergy conversion efficiency of this process is not ideal. Another problematic aspect of anaerobic digestion is that the nutrient rich effluent sometimes needs to be treated before discharge. This review presents the recent achievements of waste biomass digestion from the perspective of energy recovery and nutrient recovery. In this work, the anaerobic treatment characteristics of common types of waste biomass are summarized and compared. With a focus of nutrient recovery and post treatment issues, the challenges and technical hurdles encountered in the anaerobic digestion of waste biomass are critically reviewed. Finally, an integrated system of anaerobic digestion, anaerobic ammonia oxidation (anammox) and phosphorus recovery is proposed for efficient energy and nutrient recovery from waste biomass.

Abstract
An edible fungal pretreatment of rice straw was proposed for enhanced hydrogen production while reducing the chemical cost for traditional biological hydrogen production from lignocellulose. In this research, rice straw was pretreated by edible fungus Gymnopus contrarius J2 at room temperature under static conditions for 15 d at first. The highest hydrogen yield of 5.71 mmol g-1-pretreated rice straw was obtained, 74% higher than the counterpart without pretreatment. Chemical composition analysis demonstrated that lignin removal was up to 22.4% with a little cellulose and hemicellulose loss of 13.3% and 17.1%, respectively, which is in favor of hydrogen production. Additionally, microscopic structure observation combined with FT-IR and XRD analysis illustrated the structural disruption of pretreated rice straw, and the crystalline index of rice straw can be decreased by 46.2% after pretreatment, which might account for the hydrogen production enhancement. The results also indicated that the hydrogen yield from pretreated rice straw was not affected without the addition of yeast extract and vitamins to the culture medium, which is substantial evidence that edible fungal pretreated rice straw could provide prerequisite nutrients for hydrogen-producing bacteria. Overall, edible fungal pretreatment has great potential under the mild conditions for high hydrogen yields and thus leads to a new direction to realize a highly efficient and economically competitive biological hydrogen production process from lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
Anaerobic digestion of lignocellulosic waste is considered to be an efficient way to answer present-day energy crisis and environmental challenges. However, the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic material forms a major obstacle for obtaining maximum biogas production. The use of biological pretreatment and bioaugmentation for enhancing the performance of anaerobic digestion is quite recent and still needs to be investigated. This paper reviews the status and perspectives of recent studies on biotechnology concept and investigates its possible use for enhancing biogas production from lignocellulosic waste with main emphases on biological pretreatment and bioaugmentation techniques.
