Biorefineries processes and integration
Spent Mushroom Substrate - Potential Feedstock for Biorefinery Exploitation
Short Introductive summary
We show the potential of spent mushroom substrate (SMS), the main residue from the mushroom industry, as substrate for biorefineries. We have developed a biorefinery approach for valorizing SMS. Our valorization concept includes recovery of bioactive compounds from SMS, enzymatic saccharification of the polysaccharides, bioconversion of obtained sugars into valuable products, and upgrading lignin from the saccharification residue. Our preliminary trials with SMS from shiitake and oyster mushrooms reveal that the proposed approach is a suitable alternative for upgrading the residual substrate from mushroom cultivation.
