Abstract
The need for a sustainable and circular bioeconomy model is imperative due to petroleum non-renewability, scarcity and environmental impacts. Biorefineries systems explore biomass to its maximum, being an important pillar for the development of circular bioeconomy. Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) can take advantage of biorefineries, as they can be produced using renewable feedstocks, and are potential substitutes for petrochemical plastics. The present work aims to evaluate the current status of the industrial development of PHAs production in biorefineries and PHAs contributions to the bioeconomy, along with future development points. Advancements are noticed when PHA production is coupled in wastewater treatment systems, when residues are used as substrate, and also when analytical methodologies are applied to evaluate the production process, such as the Life Cycle and Techno-Economic Analysis. For the commercial success of PHAs, it is established the need for dedicated investment and policies, in addition to proper collaboration of different society actors.

Abstract
2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is one of the platform chemicals and monomers used in plastic industries, currently synthesized by carcinogenic and toxic chemical processes with high pressure and temperature. The aim of this study was to develop a bioprocess for the production of FDCA. 5-(Hydroxymethyl)furfural (HMF) was synthesized (22.67 ± 1.36 g/l/h) from pineapple peel using chromium(III) chloride (CrCl3) at 100 °C. After optimization, approximately 3 mg/l/h FDCA was produced by Aspergillus flavus APLS-1 from HMF in a 2.5 L fermenter in a batch strategy. Parallel and immobilized packed bad bioreactors showed less production of FDCA. A fed-batch strategy produced 3.5 ± 0.3 mg/l/h of FDCA in shake flasks. Also, approximately 0.55 mg/l/h of FDCA was produced from pineapple waste derived HMF. However, these bioprocesses may be improved to increase the yield of renewable FDCA, in the future. This is the first report on FDCA production from pineapple waste.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) for citric acid (CA) production and its impact on chemical oxygen demand (COD) of SSB. Five types of SSB were used as a carbon source for CA production by A. niger, and the COD of each SSB was measured before and after the bioprocess. Results showed that all tested SSB were suitable for CA production, with maximum yields ranging from 13.01 to 56.62 g L- 1. The COD was reduced from 53 to 75.64%, indicating that the bioprocess effectively treated SSB wastes. The use of SSB as a substrate for CA production provides an alternative to traditional feedstocks, such as sugarcane and beet molasses. The low-cost and high availability of SSB makes it an attractive option for CA production. Moreover, the study demonstrated the potential of the bioprocess to simultaneously treat and reuse SSB wastes, reducing the environmental impact of the beverage industry.

Abstract
In recent years, concerns about a good-quality diet have increased. Food supplements such as prebiotics have great nutritional and health benefits. Within the diverse range of prebiotics, xylooligosaccharides (XOs) show high potential, presenting exceptional properties for the prevention of systemic disorders. XOs can be found in different natural sources; however, their production is limited. Lignocellulosic biomasses present a high potential as a source of raw material for the production of XOs, making the agro-industrial by-products the perfect candidates for production on an industrial scale. However, these biomasses require the application of physicochemical pretreatments to obtain XOs. Different pretreatment methodologies are discussed in terms of increasing the production of XOs and limiting the coproduction of toxic compounds. The advance in new technologies for XOs production could decrease their real cost (USD 25-50/kg) on an industrial scale and would increase the volume of market transactions in the prebiotic sector (USD 4.5 billion). In this sense, new patents and innovations are being strategically developed to expand the use of XOs as daily prebiotics.

Abstract
Due to their widespread occurrence and the inadequate removal efficiencies by conventional wastewater treatment plants, emerging contaminants (ECs) have recently become an issue of great concern. Current ongoing studies have focused on different physical, chemical, and biological methods as strategies to avoid exposing ecosystems to significant long-term risks. Among the different proposed technologies, the enzyme-based processes rise as green biocatalysts with higher efficiency yields and lower generation of toxic by-products. Oxidoreductases and hydrolases are among the most prominent enzymes applied for bioremediation processes. The present work overviews the state of the art of recent advances in enzymatic processes during wastewater treatment of EC, focusing on recent innovations in terms of applied immobilization techniques, genetic engineering tools, and the advent of nanozymes. Future trends in the enzymes immobilization techniques for EC removal were highlighted. Research gaps and recommendations on methods and utility of enzymatic treatment incorporation in conventional wastewater treatment plants were also discussed.

Abstract
Sugarcane ethanol production generates about 360 billion liters of vinasse, a liquid effluent with an average chemical oxygen demand of 46,000 mg/L. Vinasse still contains about 11% of the original energy from sugarcane juice, but this chemical energy is diluted. This residue, usually discarded or applied in fertigation, is a suitable substrate for anaerobic digestion (AD). Although the technology is not yet widespread—only 3% of bioethanol plants used it in Brazil in the past, most discontinuing the process—the research continues. With a biomethane potential ranging from 215 to 324 L of methane produced by kilogram of organic matter in vinasse, AD could improve the energy output of sugarcane biorefineries. At the same time, the residual digestate could still be used as an agricultural amendment or for microalgal production for further stream valorization. This review presents the current technology for ethanol production from sugarcane and describes the state of the art in vinasse AD, including technological trends, through a recent patent evaluation. It also appraises the integration of vinasse AD in an ideal sugarcane biorefinery approach. It finally discusses bottlenecks and presents possible directions for technology development and widespread adoption of this simple yet powerful approach for bioresource recovery.

Abstract
Soybean hulls are lignocellulosic residuesgeneratedinthe industrial processing of soybean, representing about 5 % of the mass of the whole bean. This by-product isan importantsource of polymers suchas cellulose(34 %) and hemicellulose (11 %),which could bevalorizedvia biotechnology to improvethe economic returnof the oilseed chain. In the present work,soybean hulls were evaluated as a carbon sourcefor biolipid productionbyLipomycesstarkeyi LPB 53. Initially the hulls were treated physicochemically and enzymatically to obtain fermentable sugars. Subsequently, biomass growth was evaluated using different nitrogen sources andthe lipid production was optimized, reaching a maximum cell biomass concentration of 26.5 g/L with 42.5 % of lipids. Around 65 % of the xylose content was consumed.The obtained oil wasmajorlycomposed of oleic, palmitic, palmitoleic, linoleic and stearic fatty acids in a proportion of 54 %, 32 %, 4 %, 3 % and 2 %, respectively.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is a renewable material of great abundance. However, its recalcitrant characteristic requires the application of pretreatments. Sugarcane bagasse (SB), soybean hulls (SH), cocoa pod husks (CPH) and oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) were subjected to imidazole pretreatment in order to evaluate chemical composition variations and influence over enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency. Non-treated SH, SB and OPEFB have higher content of holocellulose, while CPH is rich in lignin polymers (31.2%). After imidazole-pretreatment, all biomasses presented structural disorganization of lignocellulosic fibres and enrichment in the percentage of cellulose. Levels of up to 72% delignification were obtained, which allowed an enzymatic conversion greater than 95% for SB, SH and OPEFB, while only 83% was reached for CPH. Imidazole is then emerging as a potential catalyst for the pretreatment of agro-industrial by-products, allowing the valorisation of these residues and their reinsertion into the production chain under a biorefinery concept.

Abstract
The high costs of bioplastics' production may hinder their commercialization. Development of new processes with high yields and in biorefineries can enhance diffusion of these materials. This work evaluated the production of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) from the combination of milled corn starchy fraction hydrolysate and crude glycerol as substrates by the strain Cupriavidus necator LPB 1421. After optimization steps, maximum accumulation of 62 % of PHB was obtained, which represents 11.64 g.L-1 and productivity of 0.162 g.Lh-1. In a stirred tank bioreactor system with 8 L of operational volume, 70 % of PHB accumulation was reported, representing 14.17 g.L-1 of the biopolymer with 0.197 g.Lh-1 productivity. PHB recovery was conducted using a chemical digestion method, reaching >99 % purity. Therefore, the potential application of milled corn as substrate for PHB production was confirmed. The developed bioplastic process could be coupled to a bioethanol producing unit creating the opportunity of a sustainable and economic biorefinery.

Abstract
The application of biorefinery concepts to produce different value-added biomolecules such as xylooligosaccharides (XOs) generates economical competitive, sustainable and environmentally friendly processes. The objective of this work was to develop an efficient imidazole-pretreatment process of sugarcane bagasse (SB) and the use of the obtained hemicellulose fraction in the production of XOs with the application of in house produced xylanolytic enzymes using SB as substrate, under a biorefinery approach. SB imidazole pretreatment allowed the recovery of a hemicellulose rich fraction (34%) with 91.2% of delignification. Xylanase production by Aspergillus niger reached 53.1 U·mL-1 at 120 h. The application of produced xylanases in the enzymatic hydrolysis of extracted xylan, allowed the production of 6.06 g·L-1 of XOs, where xylotriose represented >70%. Great perspectives are viewed for the implementation of mixed processes in a sustainable closed cycle to produce biomolecules with concomitant valorization of subproducts from SB chain.

Abstract
Cellulose is a potential resource to be recovered from wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). Enzyme formulations can be employed to hydrolyze cellulose into fermentable sugars, to be further used as biochemical building blocks or reducing its recalcitrance to further treatment processes. This study proposed the production, recovery and formulation of cellulase using domestic wastewater as culture medium and its application for the hydrolysis of cellulosic residues recovered from WWTPs. Cellulose was recovered from raw sanitary wastewater using a fine-mesh sieve (0.35 mm) and quantified through enzymatic hydrolysis and thermogravimetric analysis. The production, concentration and formulation of cellulase enzyme resulted in an enzymatic blend of endoglucanases (7.3 UFP/mL), cellobiohydrolases (7.4 UCMC/mL) and beta-glucosidases (4.4 UBGL/mL). The content of the recovered cellulosic material was 21.3% according to enzymatic hydrolysis and 27.7 for thermogravimetric results. The enzymatic hydrolysis of the WWTP residue using the produced cellulase (107.6 ± 10.2 mgreduc/gresidue) showed better results than using the commercial cellulase complex (66.4 ± 2.5 mgreduc/gresidue). This fact showed the potential of application of the produced enzyme for the hydrolysis of cellulosic residues recovered from WWTP processes. In a non-waste biorefinery approach, the generated hydrolysate can be further used for producing added-value biomolecules including biofuels and biochemicals.

Abstract
A biorefinery approach was applied for pectin extraction, xylooligosaccharides' (XOs) and bioethanol production from cocoa pod husk (CPH) using citric acid-assisted hydrothermal pretreatment. Under optimal conditions at 120° C, 10 min and 2% w.v-1 of citric acid a high pectin recovery (19.5%) with high content of uronic acids (41.9%) was obtained. In addition, the liquid fraction presented a XOs concentration of 50.4 mg.g-1 and 69.7 mg.g-1 of fermentable sugars. Enzymatic hydrolysis of solid fraction showed glucan conversion of 60%. Finally, the hydrothermal and enzymatic hydrolysates of CPH were used in bioethanol production by Candida tropicalis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, reaching 30.9 g and 45.2 g of bioethanol per kg of CPH, respectively. An environmentally friendly and rapid pretreatment method was development for pectin extraction, XOS and second-generation bioethanol production from CPH with great perspectives for the application of these biomolecules in food and bioenergy industry.

Abstract
Cocoa beans are produced through on-farm processing where residual biomass is discarded, including cocoa pod husks (CPH), cocoa bean shells and cocoa sweatings. CPH represents about 80% of these residues that are generated during the initial cocoa bean processing steps and their disposal occupies large areas, causing social and environmental concerns. In the last decades, the lignocellulosic composition of CPH has attracted the attention of the scientific and productive sector. Recently, some studies have reported the use of CPH in the production of medium to high value-added molecules, with potential applications in food and feed, agriculture, bioenergy, and other segments. This review presents biotechnological approaches and processes for the exploitation of CPH, including pre-treatment methods for the production of different biomolecules. Great perspectives and innovations were found concerning CPH exploitation and valorisation, but still more efforts are needed to valorise this potential feedstock and give support to producers in-development countries.

Abstract
The main purpose of this work was the development of a new citric acid assisted hydrothermal pretreatment of cocoa pod husks (CPH), which has not yet been exploited for pectin recovery. CPH́s pectin recovery was improved with concomitant production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) through efficient enzymatic hydrolysis of the solid fraction. A central composite experimental design was planned to analyze the effect of pretreatment conditions. Under optimal conditions at 120 °C, 10 min and 2% w.v-1, the recovery of pectin accounted for 19.3% of the biomass submitted to pretreatment with 52.2% of methyl esterification degree. Additionally, 51.9 mg.g-1 of XOS were also produced. The enzymatic conversion efficiency of the cellulosic fraction was 58.9%, leading to a production of 92.4 kg of glucose per ton of CPH. Great perspectives were observed in the implementation of CPH hydrothermal pretreatment for the production of value-added biomolecules under a biorefinery concept.

Abstract
The generation of agroindustrial byproducts is rising fast worldwide. The slaughter of animals, the production of bioethanol, and the processing of oil palm, cassava, and milk are industrial activities that, in 2019, generated huge amounts of wastewaters, around 2448, 1650, 256, 85, and 0.143 billion liters, respectively. Thus, it is urgent to reduce the environmental impact of these effluents through new integrated processes applying biorefinery and circular economy concepts to produce energy or new products. This review provides the characteristics of some of the most important agro-industrial wastes, including their physicochemical composition, worldwide average production, and possible environmental impacts. In addition, some alternatives for reusing these materials are addressed, focusing mainly on energy savings and the possibilities of generating value-added products. Finally, this review considers recent research and technological innovations and perspectives for the future.

Abstract
Soybean is one of the major world crops, with an annual production of 359 million tons. Each ton of processed soybean generates 50-80 kg of soybean hulls (SHs), representing 5-8% of the whole seed. Due to environmental concerns and great economic potential, the search of SHs re-use solutions are deeply discussed. The lignocellulosic composition of SHs has attracted the attention of the scientific and productive sector. Recently, some studies have reported the use of SHs in the production of medium to high value-added molecules, with potential applications in food and feed, agriculture, bioenergy, and other segments. This review presents biotechnological approaches and processes for the management and exploitation of SHs, including pre-treatment methods and fermentation techniques, for the production of different biomolecules. Great potentialities and innovations were found concerning SH exploration and valorisation of the soybean chain under a biorefinery and circular bioeconomy optic.

Abstract
With the aim to reach the maximum recovery of bulk and specialty bioproducts while minimizing waste generation, a multi-product biorefinery for ethanol and lactic acid production from the biomass of cyanobacterium Arthrospira platensis was investigated. Therefore, the residual biomass resulting from different pretreatments consisting of supercritical fluid extraction (SF) and microwave assisted extraction with non-polar (MN) and polar solvents (MP), previously applied on A. platensis to extract bioactive metabolites, was further valorized. In particular, it was used as a substrate for fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae LPB-287 and Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 43121 to produce bioethanol (BE) and lactic acid (LA), respectively. The maximum concentrations achieved were 3.02 ± 0.07 g/L of BE by the MN process at 120 rpm 30 °C, and 9.67 ± 0.05 g/L of LA by the SF process at 120 rpm 37 °C. An economic analysis of BE and LA production was carried out to elucidate the impact of fermentation scale, fermenter costs, production titer, fermentation time and cyanobacterial biomass production cost. The results indicated that the critical variables are fermenter scale, equipment cost, and product titer; time process was analyzed but was not critical. As scale increased, costs tended to stabilize, but also more product was generated, which causes production costs per unit of product to sharply decrease. The median value of production cost was US$ 1.27 and US$ 0.39, for BE and LA, respectively, supporting the concept of cyanobacterium biomass being used for fermentation and subsequent extraction to obtain ethanol and lactic acid as end products from A. platensis.

Abstract
The use of low-cost feedstock for enzyme production is an environmental and economic solution. Sugarcane bagasse and soybean meal are employed in this study for optimised xylanase production with the concomitant synthesis of proteases. The enzymatic complex is produced by submerged fermentation by Aspergillus niger. Optimisation steps lead to a 2.16-fold increase in enzymatic activity. The fermentation kinetics are studied in Erlenmeyer flasks, a stirred tank reactor and a bubble column reactor, with the xylanase activities reaching 52.9; 33.7 and 60.5 U.mL-1, respectively. The protease production profile is also better in the bubble column reactor, exceeding 7 U.mL-1. The enzyme complex is then evaluated for the synthesis of xylooligosaccharides from sugarcane extracted xylan with a production of 3.1 g.L-1 where xylotriose is the main product. Excellent perspectives are observed for the developed process with potential applications in the animal feed, prebiotics and paper industries.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop optimized enzyme cocktails, containing native and recombinant purified enzymes from five fungal species, for the saccharification of alkali- and acid-pretreated sugarcane bagasse (SCB), soybean hulls (SBH) and oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB). Basic cellulases were represented by cellobiohydrolase I (CBH) and endo-glucanase II (EG) from Penicillium verruculosum and β-glucosidase (BG) from Aspergillus niger. Auxiliary enzymes were represented by endo-xylanase A (Xyl), pectin lyase (PNL) and arabinoxylanhydrolase (AXH) from Penicillium canescens, β-xylosidase (BX) from Aspergillus japonicus, endo-arabinase (ABN) from A. niger and arabinofuranosidase (Abf) from Aspergillus foetidus. Enzyme loads were 5 mg protein/g dry substrate (basic cellulases) and 1 mg/g (each auxiliary enzyme). The best choice for SCB and EFB saccharification was alkaline pretreatment and addition of Xyl + BX, AXH + BX or ABN + BX + Abf to basic cellulases. For SBH, acid pretreatment and basic cellulases combined with ABN + BX + Abf or Xyl + BX performed better than other enzyme preparations.

Abstract
The sugarcane industry is one of the largest in the world and processes huge volumes of biomass, especially for ethanol and sugar production. These processes also generate several environmentally harmful solid, liquid, and gaseous wastes. Part of these wastes is reused, but with low-added value technologies, while a large unused fraction continues to impact the environment. In this review, the classic waste reuse routes are outlined, and promising green and circular technologies that can positively impact this sector are discussed. To remain competitive and reduce its environmental impact, the sugarcane industry must embrace technologies for bagasse fractionation and pyrolysis, microalgae cultivation for both CO2 recovery and vinasse treatment, CO2 chemical fixation, energy generation through the anaerobic digestion of vinasse, and genetically improved fermentation yeast strains. Considering the technological maturity, the anaerobic digestion of vinasse emerges as an important solution in the short term. However, the greatest environmental opportunity is to use the pure CO2 from fermentation. The other opportunities still require continued research to reach technological maturity. Intensifying the processes, the exploration of driving-change technologies, and the integration of wastes through biorefinery processes can lead to a more sustainable sugarcane processing industry.

Abstract
Citric acid (CA) has been widely used in different industrial sectors, being produced through fermentation of low-cost feedstock. The development of downstream processes, easier to operate, environmentally friendly, and more economic than precipitation, is certainly a challenge in CA bioproduction. Large volumes of by-products generated in precipitation require treatment before disposal. Adsorption, extraction, and membrane separation have been shown to have a lower environmental impact than precipitation, but the technological maturity of these methods is still limited. However, reactive extraction and adsorption have great potential for industrial applications. This review shows that there is still much to be explored, both about the factors that are intrinsic to the techniques, but also in their combination for new processes' development. This review reports the most recent advances on CA bioproduction, with significant information about recovery and purification methods involving this highly industrially demanded organic acid.

Abstract
:
The interest in biological peptides from Arthrospira sp. (syn Spirulina) is
increasing due to its Generally Recognised as Safe “GRAS” status, the high
concentration of proteins and the history of its use as a supplement and nutraceutical
agent. Arthrospira peptides can be generated by the controlled hydrolysis of proteins,
using proteases, followed by fractionation. The peptides obtained have a range of
therapeutic effects. Amongst these bioactive peptides, three classes are of major
importance: the antihypertensive (AHP), antimicrobial (AMP) and anticancer (ACP)
peptides. AHPs have the ability to work as inhibitors of angiotensin-converting enzyme
(ACE), and help to control several diseases such as hypertension, obesity, and
cardiovascular issues, AMPs play a crucial role in the immune response, inhibiting the
development of pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, viruses and others, while ACPs can
aid in tumour control by the induction of apoptosis or necrosis, or the inhibition of
angiogenesis. Thus, bioactive peptides are of great significance to the pharmaceutical
industry. However, they can show secondary effects. This paper reviews the inhibition
mechanism of antimicrobial, hypertensive and anticancer peptides from Arthrospira sp.,
and the possible structures of the peptides according to the type of activity and its
intensity. In addition, this paper describes the purification methods of absorption
mechanisms, and reviews databases for designing peptides.

Abstract
Biohydrogen production was evaluated using cassava processing wastewater (CPW) and two microbial consortia (Vir and Gal) from different Brazilian environments. The biohydrogen production was optimized using a Box-Behnken design (T, pH, C/N, and % v/v inoculum). Maximum yields were obtained with hydrolyzed substrate: 4.12 and 3.80 mol H2 / for Vir and Gal, respectively. Similarly, the kinetic parameters µ, k, and q were higher with hydrolyzed CPW in both consortia. The molecular analysis of the consortia through Illumina high-throughput sequencing showed the presence of bacteria from the families Porphyromonadaceae, Clostridiaceae, Ruminococcaceae, and Enterococcaceae. The relative abundance of microbial families varies as fermentation progresses. In both consortia, Clostridiaceae reached the maximum relative abundance in the media between 16 and 24 h, interval in which approximately 90% of the biohydrogen is generated.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the most abundant organic resources worldwide and is a promising source of renewable energy and bioproducts. It basically consists of three fractions, cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, which confer a recalcitrant structure. As such, pretreatment steps are required to make each fraction available for further use, with acidic, alkaline and combined acidic-alkaline treatments being the most common techniques. This review focuses on recent strategies for lignocellulosic biomass pretreatment, with a critical discussion and comparison of their efficiency based on the composition of the materials. Mild pretreatments usually allow the recovery of the three biomass fractions for further transformation and valorisation. An insight is provided of newly developed technologies from recently filed patents on lignocellulosic biomass pretreatment and the transformation of agro-industrial residues into high value-added products, such as biofuels and organic acids.

Abstract
The sustainability of a biofuel is severely affected by the technological route of its production. Chemical pretreatment can be considered the traditional method of decomposition of the lignocellulose into its mono and oligomeric units, which can be further bioconverted to ethanol. The evaluation of the recent advances in chemical pretreatments of sugarcane bagasse, especially diluted acids, alkaline, organosolv and ionic liquids, identified the critical points for sustainability. In this context, chemicals recovery and reutilization or their substitution by green solvents, heat and electricity generation through bioenergy, reutilization of water from evaporators, vinasse concentration and the upgrading of lignin were discussed as strategic routes for developing sustainable chemical-based lignocellulose pretreatment. The advances in the technologies that allow greater fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass should be focused on the minimization of the use of natural resources, effluent generation and energy expenditure.

Abstract
Microalgae are sources of nutritional products and biofuels. However, their economical processing is challenging, because of (i) the inherently low concentration of biomass in algal cultures, below 0.5%, (ii) the high-water content in the harvested biomass, above 70%; and (iii) the variable intracellular content and composition. Cell wall structure and strength vary enormously among microalgae, from naked Dunaliella cells to robust Haematococcus cysts. High-value products justify using fast and energy-intensive processes, ranging from 0.23 kWh/kg dry biomass in high-pressure homogenization, to 6 kWh/kg dry biomass in sonication. However, in biofuels production, the energy input must be minimized, requiring slower, thermal or chemical pretreatments. Whichever the primary fraction of interest, the spent biomass can be processed into valuable by-products. This review discusses microalgal cell structure and composition, how it affects pretreatment, focusing on technologies tested for large scale or promising for industrial processes, and how these can be integrated into algal biorefineries.

Abstract
A new method for CO2 recovery was proposed for cultivation of different microalgae. First, a chemical fixation, where CO2 was injected in alkalinized vinasse to form (bi)carbonate salts, was performed. In addition, biological fixation with CO2-enriched air injection was also accomplished for evaluation of the most promising results. Two bioreactor systems, a stirred-tank reactor and a bubble column reactor, were employed. A higher carbon transfer rate (43.35 g.L-1.h-1) was achieved in the bubble column reactor using NaOH-alkalinized vinasse, along with reductions of the chemical oxygen demand (COD), biological oxygen demand (BOD) and turbidity (TD). This allowed the cultivation of microalgae and cyanobacteria at vinasse concentrations between 70 and 100%, reaching a biomass production of 2.25 g.L-1 in 15 days of culture. The viability of chemical CO2 fixation together with the use of 100% treated vinasse from a bioethanol production unit for microalgae cultivation has been demonstrated in a successfully integrated biorefinery approach.

Abstract
Second-generation bioethanol production process was developed using pretreated empty fruit bunches (EFB). Consecutive acid/alkali EFB pretreatment was performed, first with HCl and then with NaOH with final washing steps for phenolic compounds elimination. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that EFB chemical treatments indeed attacked the cellulose fibers and removed the silica from surface pores. The optimization of enzymatic hydrolysis of EFB's cellulosic fraction was performed with 0.5%-4% v/v of Cellic® CTec2/Novozymes, different EFB concentrations (5%-15%, w/v), and hydrolysis time (6-72 H). Optimization essays were carried out in Erlenmeyer flasks and also in a 1 L stirred tank reactor. After enzymatic hydrolysis, a hydrolysate with 66 g/L of glucose was achieved with 2.2% (v/v) Cellic® CTec2, 15% (m/v) acid/alkaline pretreated EFB after 39 H of hydrolysis. A gain of 11.2% was then obtained in the 1 L stirred tank promoted by the agitation (72.2 g/L glucose). The hydrolysate was employed in bioethanol production by a new isolate Candida pelliculosa CCT 7734 in a separate hydrolysis and fermentation process reaching 16.6 and 23.0 g/L of bioethanol through batch and fed-batch operation, respectively. An integrated biorefinery process was developed for EFB processing chain.

Abstract
Raw domestic wastewater was used as a culture medium for cellulase production in a bubble column reactor (6.2 UFP/mL, 64.6 U/L h) using the strain Trichoderma harzianum TRIC03-LPBII. Cellulases presented optimum pH and temperature between 4 and 5 and 50 and 70 °C, respectively. Enzymatic extract was concentrated through ultrafiltration and then a cellulolytic formulation was prepared with the addition of sorbitol (50% w/v) and benzoic acid (0.05% w/v). High cellulase stability of around 100% was reached after 30 days at 4 °C. The concentrated extract was also dried in a spray-dryer with the addition of maltodextrin at 20% (w/v), resulting in powder enzymatic formulation with 85% stability after 60 days. With these characteristics, the liquid and powder cellulase products have potential to be used in different industrial applications.

Abstract
The production of cellulases using domestic wastewater as an alternative culture medium and reducing the pollutant charge of the resultant effluents were assessed for the first time in this study. Cellulase production was carried out in a bubble column, column-packed bed and stirred tank reactors by Trichoderma harzianum. Maximum cellulase activity and productivity of 31 UFP/mL and 645 UFP/mL.h, respectively were achieved in the bubble column bioreactor system without immobilization. The fermented broth was microfiltrated and ultrafiltrated, leading to a cellulase recovery of 73.5% using a 30 kDa membrane and resulting in a 4.23-fold activity concentration. Chemical oxygen demand and nitrogen concentration were reduced 81.37% and 52.9%, respectively, showing great promise in producing cellulases using domestic wastewater with concomitant development of a medium- to-high added-value process and reduced environmental impact. These results contribute to the development of sustainable bioprocesses approaching a biorefinery concept.

Abstract
Agriculture producers, pushed by the need for high productivity, have stimulated the intensive use of pesticides and fertilizers. Unfortunately, negative effects on water, soil, and human and animal health have appeared as a consequence of this indiscriminate practice. Plant probiotic microorganisms (PPM), also known as bioprotectants, biocontrollers, biofertilizers, or biostimulants, are beneficial microorganisms that offer a promising alternative and reduce health and environmental problems. These microorganisms are involved in either a symbiotic or free-living association with plants and act in different ways, sometimes with specific functions, to achieve satisfactory plant development. This review deals with PPM presentation and their description and function in different applications. PPM includes the plant growth promoters (PGP) group, which contain bacteria and fungi that stimulate plant growth through different mechanisms. Soil microflora mediate many biogeochemical processes. The use of plant probiotics as an alternative soil fertilization source has been the focus of several studies; their use in agriculture improves nutrient supply and conserves field management and causes no adverse effects. The species related to organic matter and pollutant biodegradation in soil and abiotic stress tolerance are then presented. As an important way to understand not only the ecological role of PPM and their interaction with plants but also the biotechnological application of these cultures to crop management, two main approaches are elucidated: the culture-dependent approach where the microorganisms contained in the plant material are isolated by culturing and are identified by a combination of phenotypic and molecular methods; and the culture-independent approach where microorganisms are detected without cultivating them, based on extraction and analyses of DNA. These methods combine to give a thorough knowledge of the microbiology of the studied environment.

Abstract
Ganoderma lucidum is a well-known representative of mushrooms that have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. New discoveries related to this medicinal mushroom and its biological properties are frequently reported. However, only recently have scientists started to pay special attention to G. lucidum spores. This is in part because of the recent development of methods for breaking the spore wall and extracting biocompounds from the spore. Although some research groups are working with G. lucidum spores, data in the literature are still limited, and the methods used have not been systematized. This review therefore describes the main advances in techniques for breaking the spore wall and extracting biocompounds from the spore. In addition, the major active components identified and their biological properties, such as neurological activity and antiaging and cell-protective effects, are investigated because these are of importance for potential drug development.

Abstract
A successful pilot-scale process for biodiesel production from microbial oil (Biooil) produced by Rhodosporidium toruloides DEBB 5533 is presented. Using fed-batch strategy (1000L working volume), a lipid productivity of 0.44g/L.h was obtained using a low-cost medium composed by sugarcane juice and urea. The microbial oil was used for biodiesel production and its performance was evaluated in diesel engine tests, showing very good performance, especially for the blend B20 SCO, when operating at 2500rpm with lower pollutant emissions (CO2 - 220% less; CO - 7-fold less; NOX 50% less and no detectable HC emissions (<0.11ppm)) when compared with the blends of standard biofuel from soybean oil. A preliminary analysis showed that microbial biodiesel is economically competitive (US$ 0.76/L) when compared to the vegetable biodiesel (US$ 0.81/L). Besides, the yield of biodiesel from microbial oil is higher (4172L/ha of cultivated sugarcane) that represents 6.3-fold the yield of standard biodiesel (661L/ha of cultivated soybean).

Abstract
An enzymatic mixture of cellulases and xylanases was produced by Pleurotus ostreatus using microcrystalline cellulose as inducer, partially characterized and tested in the statistical analysis of Arundo donax bioconversion. The Plackett-Burman screening design was applied to identify the most significant parameters for the enzymatic hydrolysis of pretreated A. donax. As the most significant influence during the enzymatic hydrolysis of A. donax was exercised by the temperature (°C), pH, and time, the combined effect of these factors in the bioconversion by P. ostreatus cellulase and xylanase was analyzed by a 3(3) factorial experimental design. It is worth noting that the best result of 480.10 mg of sugars/gds, obtained at 45 °C, pH 3.5, and 96 hours of incubation, was significant also when compared with the results previously reached by process optimization with commercial enzymes.

Abstract
This manuscript describes the analysis of the effect of cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), xylan, and xylose as inducers of cellulase and xylanase activity production by Ganoderma applanatum MR-56 and the optimization of their production in liquid cultures by statistical methods. The Plackett-Burman screening design was applied to identify the most significant inducers of xylanase and cellulase activities production by G. applanatum MR-56. The most significant effect on xylanase and cellulase activities production was exercised by cellulose, even if xylose and CMC were also effective at some times. The combined effect of cellulose, yeast extract, and pH was analyzed by a 2(3) factorial experimental design with four central points that showed that the maximum tested cellulose (1 % w/v) and yeast extract (5 g L(-1)) concentrations gave the maximum production of xylanase (8.24 U mL(-1)) and cellulase (3.29 U mL(-1)) activity at pH 6 and 4, respectively. These values achieved for cellulase and xylanase activity represent 12-25 fold and 36 fold higher values than the maximum so far reported for other strains of G. applanatum, respectively.

Abstract
The National Alcohol Program--PróAlcool, created by the government of Brazil in 1975 resulted less dependency on fossil fuels. The addition of 25% ethanol to gasoline reduced the import of 550 million barrels oil and also reduced the emission CO(2) by 110 million tons. Today, 44% of the Brazilian energy matrix is renewable and 13.5% is derived from sugarcane. Brazil has a land area of 851 million hectares, of which 54% are preserved, including the Amazon forest (350 million hectares). From the land available for agriculture (340 million hectares), only 0.9% is occupied by sugarcane as energy crop, showing a great expansion potential. Studies have shown that in the coming years, ethanol yield per hectare of sugarcane, which presently is 6000 L/ha, could reach 10,000 L/ha, if 50% of the produced bagasse would be converted to ethanol. This article describes the efforts of different Brazilian institutions and research groups on second generation bioethanol production, especially from sugarcane bagasse.
