The Brazilian energy sector is fundamental on the national scene. In this sense, the National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels plays a leading role. The important role of expanding the supply of natural gas and biofuels to the market is highlighted. Specifically in the case of biofuels, the goal is for them to make up approximately 18% of the energy matrix by 2030. In the ca…
The lipopeptide produced by Bacillus subtilis are one of the most studied biosurfactants. Within this group is surfactin, which is one of the most effective agents for surface activity. This compound retains its properties even when subjected to extremes of temperature pH and salinity, and shows several biological activities. The application of industrial waste as a substrate for biosurfa…
Biosurfactants are amphiphilic compounds produced by living organisms. Bacillus subtilis produces surfactin, a natural powerful surface-active agent. Interest in its industrial and environmental applications constantly increases, however due to high production costs, its commercial use is impracticable. Agroindustrial wastes could be an alternative of low cost substrates, besides, the pur…
