Optimization of small-scale anaerobic digesters for on-site organic waste processing

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a microbial process where organic materials (sugars, starches, hemicellulose, etc) are broken down into renewable natural biogas and nutrient-rich biodigestate byproducts (roughly 5-10% solids in water). The performance of AD systems is heavily dependent on careful control of digester conditions, including pH, temperature, and health and proportions of the bacterial populations […]

Enzymatic nano-immobilisation facilitated by 2D materials for antifouling coatings

Enzyme immobilisation is crucial for preserving the enzyme activity while enabling the enzymes to be recovered and reused for multiple applications in biocatalysis. However, immobilisation can change the structure and functionality of enzymes. Therefore, immobilisation of enzymes needs to be carefully investigated and controlled at fundamental levels. The emerging two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene […]
