Description

Application

Isobutyl alcohol is a water-soluble aliphatic alcohol that is widely used as a solvent in organic synthesis. It is used in the preparation of vanadium phosphate catalysts for the efficient dehydration of xylose into furfural and selective oxidation of n-butane to maleic anhydride.

Synergistic microbial communities are ubiquitous in nature and exhibit appealing features, such as sophisticated metabolic capabilities and robustness. This has inspired fast-growing interest in engineering synthetic microbial consortia for biotechnology development. However, there are relatively few reports of their use
