Medium-chain carboxylates production from plant waste: kinetic study and effect of an enriched microbiome

Abstract Background The need for addition of external electron donors such as ethanol or lactate impairs the economic viability of chain elongation (CE) processes for the production of medium-chain carboxylates (MCC). However, using feedstocks with inherent electron donors such as silages of waste b...
