Supercritical Fluids Technology in Lipase Catalyzed Processes
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-1-138-89320-7 (ISBN)
Comprised of six compact chapters, this comprehensive guide introduces:
Immobilization techniques and immobilized lipases that allow repeated use (which is essential from an economic point of view)
Different bioreactor configurations using immobilized lipases
The latest information on the available technologies in lipolytic reactions
The advantages of nonaqueous media in biochemical synthesis over aqueous and solvent-free systems
Material on the use of lipases in nonaqueous media to overcome the drawbacks usually encountered with the use of conventional chemical catalysts
The use of supercritical fluids (SCFs) as a green alternative reaction medium
Factors affecting the physical properties of lipases in this medium and, hence, their activity and stability
A case study using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) for biodiesel production
Novel, cutting-edge technology, using immobilized enzymes to reduce the overall production cost
Supercritical Fluids Technology in Lipase Catalized Processes
outlines the main industrial applications of common enzymes and discusses relevant challenges and innovations emerging in the field.
Sulaiman Al-Zuhair is a professor of chemical engineering at UAE University. Prior to joining UAE University in 2006, Al-Zuhair worked as an assistant professor in the School of Chemical and Environmental Engineering at Nottingham University, Malaysia Campus. He obtained his PhD in biochemical engineering from the University of Malaya in 2003, his MSc degree in chemical and environmental engineering from University Putra Malaysia in 1998, and his BSc degree in chemical engineering from the Jordan University of Science and Technology in 1996. Al-Zuhair has published more than 50 peer-reviewed journal papers, two patents, and two book chapters. Hanifa Taher is an assistant professor of chemical and environmental engineering at the Masdar Institute of Science and Technology. She earned her PhD in chemical engineering from the UAE University in June 2014. Taher’s research work is focused on the enzymatic production of biodiesel from lipids extracted from different feedstocks using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2). Taher developed a novel integrated continuous biodiesel production process in SC-CO2. Taher has reviewed a number of research articles submitted for publication to international journals.
