Japan’s Ocean Research and Development Agency announced on the 16th that the agency’s researchers found enzymes that could effectively break down sawdust, paper and other substances in a deep-sea shrimp. If you can use this enzyme, dead wood and waste paper can become Raw Materials for bioethanol production.
Researchers reported in the latest edition of the American online scientific journal Scientific Public Library Integrated Volume that they collected a large number of short-horned lobsters in the depths of the Mariana Trench in 2009. In order to study the diet of this shrimp, the researchers analyzed digestive enzymes in their bodies and found four enzymes that could break down the plant. This kind of shrimp can eat plant debris that has settled on the seabed and take nutrients from it.
The researchers found that one of the previously unknown enzymes was able to break down the cellulose in the plant and turn it into sugar, which is the raw material for making ethanol.
The researchers confirmed by experiments that sawdust and paper react under the action of this enzyme, sawdust and paper can be decomposed into sugar at room temperature.
Bioethanol is considered the next-generation fuel and is currently manufactured mainly from corn, but it consumes large amounts of food and affects the food supply. The cellulose contained in dead wood or wood waste is expected to be high because it does not consume food, but it is very difficult to decompose it. (Reporter Lan Jianzhong)
