Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Biochemistry

His scientific interests lie mostly in Bagasse, Pyrolysis, Biochemistry, Waste management and Chemical engineering. His research on Bagasse concerns the broader Pulp and paper industry. He combines subjects such as Yield, Activation energy and Thermokinetics with his study of Pyrolysis.

The various areas that Johann F. Görgens examines in his Waste management study include Pulp and Product distribution. His study looks at the relationship between Heterologous and topics such as Heterologous expression, which overlap with Xylanase and Amino acid. His Biomass research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cellulose and Biofuel.

His most cited work include:

  • Role of cultivation media in the development of yeast strains for large scale industrial use (157 citations)
  • Fungal β-mannanases: Mannan hydrolysis, heterologous production and biotechnological applications (137 citations)
  • Production of char from vacuum pyrolysis of South-African sugar cane bagasse and its characterization as activated carbon and biochar (129 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Johann F. Görgens mainly focuses on Pulp and paper industry, Bagasse, Pyrolysis, Biochemistry and Biorefinery. His studies deal with areas such as Raw material and Biomass, Biofuel, Biotechnology, Ethanol fuel as well as Pulp and paper industry. His research integrates issues of Cellulose, Lignin, Sugar, Steam explosion and Enzymatic hydrolysis in his study of Bagasse.

His Pyrolysis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Heat of combustion and Thermogravimetric analysis. His is doing research in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Fermentation, Heterologous, Amino acid and Xylanase, both of which are found in Biochemistry. In his research on the topic of Biorefinery, Fossil fuel is strongly related with Life-cycle assessment.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Pulp and paper industry (31.28%)
  • Bagasse (23.79%)
  • Pyrolysis (18.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Pulp and paper industry (31.28%)
  • Raw material (13.22%)
  • Biorefinery (14.54%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Pulp and paper industry, Raw material, Biorefinery, Pyrolysis and Bagasse are his primary areas of study. His Pulp and paper industry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Furfural, Ethanol fuel, Biofuel, Sugar and Biomass. Johann F. Görgens has researched Raw material in several fields, including Waste management, Aviation fuel and Newsprint.

His Biorefinery study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Jerusalem artichoke, Sustainability, Environmental impact assessment and Succinic acid. His specific area of interest is Pyrolysis, where Johann F. Görgens studies Char. His work deals with themes such as Wet oxidation, Hydrolysis, Ammonia, Organosolv and Steam explosion, which intersect with Bagasse.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Production of an upgraded bio-oil with minimal water content by catalytic pyrolysis: Optimisation and comparison of CaO and MgO performances (8 citations)
  • Economic evaluation and comparison of succinic acid and electricity co‐production from sugarcane bagasse and trash lignocelluloses in a biorefinery, using different pretreatment methods: dilute acid (H2SO4), alkaline (NaOH), organosolv, ammonia fibre expansion (AFEX™), steam explosion (STEX), and wet oxidation (7 citations)
  • Synergistic codon optimization and bioreactor cultivation toward enhanced secretion of fungal lignin peroxidase in Pichia pastoris: Enzymatic valorization of technical (industrial) lignins. (6 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Organic chemistry
  • Biochemistry

Pyrolysis, Pulp and paper industry, Biomass, Steam explosion and Food science are his primary areas of study. His Pyrolysis study combines topics in areas such as Heat of combustion, Diesel fuel, Catalysis, Condensation and Fraction. The concepts of his Pulp and paper industry study are interwoven with issues in Combustion, Biorefinery, Low-density polyethylene, Polyethylene and Organosolv.

His work carried out in the field of Biomass brings together such families of science as Bagasse, Carbon, Municipal solid waste and Char. His Steam explosion study incorporates themes from Succinic acid, Lignin, Wet oxidation and Ammonia. His Food science research includes elements of Extraction and Response surface methodology.
