Article Abstract
7-Dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC) is an important precursor of vitamin D. The microbial synthesis of 7-DHC has attracted substantial attention. In this study, multiple strategies were developed to create a sustainable green route for enhancing 7-DHC yield from kitchen waste by engineered . strains were engineered and combined with various Δ-dehydrocholesterol reductases. Overexpressing all the genes in the mevalonate pathway improved the precursor pool, increasing the 7-DHC titer from 21.8 to 145.6 mg/L. Additionally, optimizing medium components using the response surface method significantly raised the 7-DHC titer to 391.0 mg/L after shake flask cultivation. The engineered strain yielded a record 7-DHC titer of 3.5 g/L in a 5-L bioreactor when kitchen waste was used as a carbon source. Overall, these results demonstrate that engineered efficiently synthesizes 7-DHC from waste lipid feedstock, offering a promising route for its bioproduction.

Background: Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production from food waste by photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) face the bottleneck of low production efficiency. Metal ions have the potential to enhance the PHB production by PSB. Thus, for the first time, this study explored the effect of Fe and Mn on the enhancement of PHB production from kitchen waste digestate by PSB and their enhancement mechanism.

Access to pure and clean water is an upcoming challenge globally due to increased pollution by household waste and industrial effluents, specifically artificial dyes, which are not biodegradable and pose toxicity. Low-cost, mass-producible, and efficient technologies, particularly in developing environments, are highly needed. In this study, Kitchen waste derived biochar was prepared from orange peels (OP), potato peels (PP), banana peels (BP), and coffee residue (CR) via pyrolysis in a muffle furnace at 400 °C for 1 h.

Kitchen waste (KW), comprising 30 %-60 % of municipal solid waste, could be converted to bio-oil via alkaline-catalyzed solvothermal liquefaction (STL) without energy-intensive drying. This study systematically investigated six catalysts (KCO, NaCO, KHCO, NaHCO, KOH, NaOH) for product distribution and nitrogen migration in STL versus hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL). Results demonstrate KCO's superiority in ethanol-water co-solvent, synergistically enhancing bio-oil yield to 57.
