Efficiently Converting Waste Stream Carbon Into Products: FAME Biodiesel Residual Streams Valorisation By Carbon-Conserving, Gas-Neutral Fermentation
Short Introductive summary
A carbon-conserving, gas-neutral process converts biodiesel (FAME) residues such as crude glycerol and wash water into renewable ethyl acetate through combined fermentation and enzymatic esterification, achieving high carbon retention without gaseous emissions.
