Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the rapid development of global economy, the amount of organic waste has been sharply increasing. However, traditional treatment techonolgies face many problem, such as the low added-value of products. Therefore, it has become a promising trend to develop high-valued conversion technologies for organic waste. The main purpose of this special issue is to report novel technologies and new principles about the high added-value biotransformation of organic waste via fermentation, or to review the relevant technologies and principles. The scope of this special issue mainly includes anaerobic or aerobic fermentation of organic waste to produce high value-added products, including volatile fatty acids, medium chain fatty acids, polyhydroxyalkanoates, etc.
