This study comprehensively reviews biocementation-based soil stabilisation techniques for developing erosion-resilient landforms through an ecologically conscious strategy. The different pathways for biocementation occurring in nature are discussed with a focused view on the microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) technique. MICP relies on biogenic calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) precipitation via the urea hydrolysis route to bind the soil grains. The kinetics and factors affecting MICP are succinctly discussed to highlight the practical challenges associated with biocementation. This study emphasises the influence of MICP on erosion resistance (aeolian and hydraulic) and geotechnical properties of soils. The critical assessment of the previous studies revealed that aeolian and hydraulic erosion can be effectively controlled with a small to moderate quantity of biogenic CaCO₃ (2% to 10% of soil weight). MICP marginally influences the hydraulic conductivity of soils with a substantial improvement in compressive strength, making it desirous over traditional soil cementation agents for erosion control due to the limited intervention to natural groundwater flow. However, the scientific design and findings of the previous laboratory-scale and pilot-scale research are still inconsistent for standardising biocementation techniques to transition towards upscaling. This study presents critical insights to the researchers of the environmental, geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering domains to design their upcoming studies to tackle the challenges required for upscaling biocementation technology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":754,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Environmental Science and Bio/Technology","volume":"22 4","pages":"1059 - 1091"},"PeriodicalIF":14.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71909309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the oleaginous yeasts, <i>Yarrowia lipolytica</i> is a highly promising cell factory and microbial oil producer because of its high capacity to accumulate lipids for subsequent biofuel production. <i>Y. lipolytic</i>a also stands out for its ability to assimilate various carbon sources, even at low cost, reaching lipid concentrations of at least 30% by weight with non-genetically modified strains, and even much higher values with engineered organisms. Among others, fatty acids have attracted recent interest as substrates for their lower cost and possible production from pollutants compared to sugars. This review pays special attention to some of those emerging carbon sources, i.e., carboxylic acids and even greenhouse gases. Besides, another focus is to provide detailed up to date information on the main characteristics and factors that most influence the fermentation process of this yeast, with the ultimate aim of optimising the bioconversion process and the synthesis of useful metabolites. Besides, the reader will find comprehensive information on the industrial applicability of the synthesised lipids, in addition to the production of biofuels. Apart from lipids, other metabolites of interest that can be synthesised by <i>Y. lipolytica</i> are also discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":754,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Environmental Science and Bio/Technology","volume":"22 4","pages":"1131 - 1158"},"PeriodicalIF":14.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71909797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The whole process and large-scale CCS projects are still in the exploratory stage from project demonstration stage to commercialization stage because to the significant expenditure, prolonged operating term, and numerous technological connections involved. The investment cost of CCS, the advancement of CCS technology, and the safety of CCS operation are its primary points of emphasis. There are several ways to successfully absorb carbon dioxide (CO₂), but they all have the drawback of having large investment costs. For the smooth development of capturing technology, the issues of cost and efficiency must be resolved. Transporting CO₂ is usually necessary since its source and storage location are dispersed and far apart. This is seen to be the most challenging issue. The secret to ensuring the success of CCS projects is understanding how to perform efficient economic evaluation when making investment decisions in light of the high cost of CCS. The influence of measures like increased carbon taxes and government subsidies will hasten the commercialization of CCS projects. We advise a thorough assessment of CCS projects to support their strategic positioning with nations and investors and deepen decision-makers' understanding of the technical feasibility and economics of CCS projects to obtain a more thorough support.

In addition, the paper also reviewed the techniques that link microbial identity and activity to ecological function. Molecular biological techniques can identify microbial activity and AD process disturbance, but research on on-site analysis of microbial communities for a full-scale system is lacking. One of the most suitable methods for studying microbial communities in anaerobic digesters is fluorescence in situ hybridization, which does not require preparative isolation and cultivation. Another very important method is the use of physiological fluorescent probes to reveal the functional characteristics of methanogenic communities by CTC (5-cyano-2,3-ditolyl tetrazolium chloride)/DAPI (4'-6 diamino-2 phenylindole), which is a very rapid, sensitive and informative assay.
