Lignocellulosic fermentation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to produce medium chain fatty alcohols
… they produce. The microbial production of fatty acid-derived chemicals allows for the opportunity to reduce petroleum-based chemicals in the marketplace. However, for microbial produced chemicals to be industrially competitive, significant work is needed to improve the production capacity …

Preparation of green non-ionic surfactants from 2,3-epoxy-1-propanol
… prepared by reacting glycidol with a range of fatty alcohols. High yields were achieved after optimising different experimental conditions e.g. addition rate, reaction time, temperature and catalyst. Highly hydrophilic polyglyceryl ether-based non-ionic surfactants were obtained by increasing …

Wax extraction and characterization from full-fat and defatted rice bran
… Saponified rice bran wax esters (RBWE) generate fatty acids, long chain alcohols, and phytosterols. Phytosterols and long chain fatty alcohols (policosanol) are known to reduce serum cholesterol and inhibit hepatic cholesterol synthesis. The yields and RBWE contents of RBO and RBW extracted from …
