Using Microorganisms for Biofuel Production
Fermentation of yeast on
plant sugars is currently
used to produce
bioethanol
Engineered bacteria are
being developed for the
production of biodiesel by
fermentation of plant
sugars (Steen, Nature,
2010)

Lignin Component of Plant Biomass
•  Lignin constitute up to
30% of plant biomass
•  Highly stable and
heterogeneous polymer
consisting of aromatic
building blocks
•  Lignin interferes with
utilization of cellulose
for the production of
biofuels
•  Lignin can be
enzymatically
depolymerized by some
bacteria and fungi
