Integrated biorefineries - biorefinery processes
Continuous Processing in Oscillatory Flow Bioreactor as a part of a Biorefinery Approach
Short Introductive summary
This abstract presents a study of a Continuous Oscillatory Flow Bioreactor (COFB) design and its application in on two substrates of different particle characteristics; a-cellulose and Brewers Spent Grain (BSG). A continuous liquid-solid flow behaviour throughout the examined reactions, enzymatic and basic hydrolysis, was achieved. The study assessed the potential valorisation of BSG’s sugars, proteins, and phenols for applications in the food industry, as gels, carrier materials, medical applications, and biogas. Energy and mass balances are presented. The experimental results are integrated into a biorefinery concept for a brewery of 1 million hectoliter brewing capacity.
