A research team led by Prof. WANG Qinggang from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), developed a novel organocatalytic ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of lactones Biomedical materials traditionally defined as materials used in medical devices. They are often used to diagnose, treat, repair or replace damaged tissues, organs or enhance their functions. Aliphatic polyester materials are an important class of ...

Recently, the Industrial Biogas Group led by Professor GUO Rongbo from Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), proposed a method to accelerate the composting process and improve the compost quality by using the porous ceramsite as the bulking agent. Composting is an economical and environmentally friendly method for the disposing of organic solid wastes by which the waste could be degraded and converted into stable and mature compost with few readily degradable organic matter content and rich...

In a new study published on Metabolic Engineering, a team of scientists led by Professor XU Jian from Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), China has developed a way to improve the tolerance to high level of CO2 in the industrial oil-producing microalgae Nannochloropsis. The rapid elevation of atmospheric carbon dioxide level has led to global warm and ocean acidification. Microalgae, which together account for nearly 40% of global carbon dioxide fixation on Earth, have found themselves on the forefront of mankind...

Recently, the research team led by Prof. YANG Chao from Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), have systematically investigated the influences of orifice diameter, liquid viscosity, surface tension force, and orifice superficial gas velocity on bubble diameter of gas sparger under industrial jetting conditions. Gas-liquid and gas-liquid-solid reactors have been widely applied in fermentation, photosynthetic culture, metallurgy, and many other processes in chemical industries. Bubble size is one of the most important parameters for accurate design of gas-...

Recently, the Metabolomics Group from Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) developed a novel strategy termed consolidated bio-saccharification (CBS) for cost-efficient lignocellulose conversion, which combines cellulase production and hydrolysis but separates fermentation from the integrated process and takes fermentable sugar as the target product to couple various downstream fermentation processes The industrial conversion of biomass to high-value biofuels and biochemical is mainly restricted by lignocellulose solubilization. Currently, three strategies are reported for lignocellulose bioconversion: separate enzymatic hydrolysis and fermen...

Recently,a research team led by Prof. CUI Guanglei from Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), exploited a novel rigid-？exible coupling gel polymer electrolyte (PTB@GF-GPE) coupling with significantly improved comprehensive performance. It was synthesized via in situ crosslinking reaction of magnesium borohydride and hydroxyl-terminated polytetrahydrofuran.
Electronic products, electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage closely related to human life put up an ever-growing demand for rechargeable batteries.
Lithium-ion batteries, which are currently widely used, perform not well in terms of ...
