Biorefinery and Engineering lab
The Biorefinery and Engineering laboratory is an integral component of Department of Food Research, School of Chemistry | Autonomous University of Coahuila and this laboratory has been established as a central point in the field of research biorefineries. The strategy of Biorefinery and Engineering lab focuses on the development and consolidation on bioconversion of lignocellulose and marine biomass using environmental friendly processes for the production of biofuels (bioethanol) and high added-value compounds.
Biorefinery and Engineering lab use a variety of methodologies for characterization of raw materials (lignocellulose and marine biomass), quantification of sugars and the compounds of high added-value.
– DNS method
– Anthrone Method
– Characterization of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin
– Determination of sugars by HPLC
– Procedure and strategies for enzymatic hydrolysis and bioethanol fermentation process (simultaneous saccharification and fermentation)
– Production and extraction of high added-value compounds
– Procedure for hydrothermal pretreatment
– Procedure for solid state fermentation process
Principal Infrastructure
– Hydrothermal pressurized reactor for pretreatment (0.75 L) with temperature and stirring rate controls
– Gas lift and column bioreactor at the laboratory for fermentation (2.7 L)
– Orbital shaker with temperature and speed controls
– Autoclave
– HPLC with RI and UV detectors
– Ovens and muffle
– Refrigeration and freezing
– Thermostats
– pHmeters
– Reactors and microwave equipment
– Software for modeling
