Cellulases in the Biofuel Industry discusses how the properties of
cellulases affects the quality of the biofuels produced. Heralded
as the solution to humanity's energy problem and the savior of the
world's climate, extensive research is being carried out on
biofuels but there are still gaps in our understanding. This book
presents cost-effective and current scenarios for cellulase
production in the biofuel industry, including the most recent
advancements for obtaining cellulases with higher activity on
pre-treated biomass substrates by screening and sequencing new
organisms, engineering cellulases with improved properties, and by
identifying proteins that can stimulate cellulases. The mechanism
and efficiency of the cellulase enzyme system on cellulose is
discussed with the specific classification of each cellulase
enzyme, as well as explanations of the limitation of cellulases in
terms of their production processes, efficiency and practical
applications to biofuels. Various approaches to improve the
production and efficiency of the cellulase enzyme system are
evaluated, along with the current limitations that are hampering
cost-effective production of cellulase and guidance on how these
limitations might be resolved.
