项目摘要
The doubling of the earth's population in the last 50 years poses several significant challenges for society including pressure for limited food supplies, shrinking availability of safe drinking water and increases in harmful algal blooms (HABs) on a global scale. ******The overall goals of the research program in this NSERC Discovery Grant application are to investigate the applications of microbes or their components for clean water and value recovery from waste.****** Two specific problems are being addressed in this proposal. ******First, wastewater streams from the bio-ethanol industry will be*investigated for the production of high value bio-polymer, pullulan from the black*yeast/fungus Aureobasidium pullulans. In particular, thin stillage,*which is generated from the distillation step will be targeted. This*thin stillage is a polluting stream due to low pH, high ash, large*volumes (20:1 per litre of ethanol produced) and high biochemical and*chemical oxygen demand. In this proposal, a two stage bioprocess will be*designed, investigated and developed for the recovery of lactic*acid and the production of pullulan. Both these byproducts have*commercial potential in the agri-food, pharmaceutical and biomedical*industries. ******The second research problem is concerned with the growing challenges with plastic wastes. Approximately 300 million tons of plastics are produced annually on a global scale. Only a fraction of these plastics are recycled and a much larger amount ends up as waste. Plastics in landfills, in water resources, lakes,rivers, and oceans are a serious issue. Of particular concern are micro-plastics (particles of plastic less than 5 mm in diameter), which can be ingested by marine organisms, endangering their life and leading to various downstream environmental problems. ******The second research project being addressed therefore will focus on the removal of micro-plastics using biosurfactant proteins as ligands. We will for the first time investigate how much micro-plastic is released in the effluent from conventional wastewater treatment plants. We will design strategies for tertiary treatment to investigate the removal of micro-plastics.****** This proposed research will train 5 PhDs, 3 M.E.Sc, 5 undergraduate students over five years of the proposed research. The HQP trained in this proposal will provide needed skills to industry with an understanding of how to manage the significant challenges of today and harness solutions based in Canada but applicable for a global society.
在过去50年中,地球人口翻了一番,给社会带来了几个重大挑战,包括有限的粮食供应压力、安全饮用水供应减少以及全球范围内有害藻华的增加。** 本NSERC发现资助申请中研究计划的总体目标是研究微生物或其组分在清洁水和废物价值回收中的应用。这项建议涉及两个具体问题。 ** 首先,将研究生物乙醇工业的废水流,用于从黑酵母/真菌出芽短梗霉生产高价值生物聚合物--普鲁兰。具体而言,目标是蒸馏步骤产生的稀酒糟。由于低pH值、高灰分、大体积(每生产一升乙醇为20:1)和高生化和化学需氧量,这种稀酒糟是一种污染流。本研究将设计、研究和开发一种两阶段生物工艺,用于乳酸的回收和普鲁兰多糖的生产。这两种副产品在农业食品、制药和生物医学行业都具有商业潜力。** 第二个研究问题涉及塑料废物日益增长的挑战。全球每年生产约3亿吨塑料。这些塑料中只有一小部分被回收,更多的塑料最终成为废物。垃圾填埋场、水资源、湖泊、河流和海洋中的塑料是一个严重的问题。特别令人关切的是微塑料(直径小于5毫米的塑料颗粒),它们可被海洋生物摄入,危及其生命,并导致各种下游环境问题。** 因此,正在解决的第二个研究项目将侧重于使用生物表面活性剂蛋白作为配体来去除微塑料。我们将首次调查传统污水处理厂的污水中释放了多少微塑料。我们将设计三级处理策略,以研究微塑料的去除。**这项拟议的研究将在五年内培养5名博士,3名M.E.Sc,5名本科生。在本提案中接受培训的HQP将为行业提供所需的技能,了解如何管理当今的重大挑战,并利用基于加拿大但适用于全球社会的解决方案。
