Lignin Utilization To Cultivate Engineered Microalgae For Polysaccharides Accumulation

Organisation/Company: Dipartimento di Ingegneria Industriale - Università degli Studi di Padova Research Field: Engineering Researcher Profile: Recognised Researcher (R2), Leading Researcher (R4), First Stage Researcher (R1), Established Researcher (R3) Country: Italy Application Deadline: 17 Jan 2025 - 23:59 (UTC) Type of Contract: To be defined Job Status: Not Applicable Is the job funded through the EU Research Framework Programme? Not funded by a EU programme Is the Job related to staff position within a Research Infrastructure? No Offer Description The project is focused on the exploitation of technical lignins to boost the production of polysaccharides by microalgae. Technical lignins (TL), produced in huge amounts as by-products of pulp and paper industries and modern biorefineries, are largely burned for energy production, mainly due to their structural complexity and variability that hamper a full valorization into marketable products.
