Evaluating a multi-panel air cathode through electrochemical and biotic tests

R Rossi, D Jones, J Myung, E Zikmund, W Yang… - Water research, 2019 - Elsevier
To scale up microbial fuel cells (MFCs), larger cathodes need to be developed that can use
air directly, rather than dissolved oxygen, and have good electrochemical performance. A …

[HTML][HTML] Expanding the range of polyhydroxyalkanoates synthesized by methanotrophic bacteria through the utilization of omega-hydroxyalkanoate co-substrates

J Myung, JCA Flanagan, RM Waymouth, CS Criddle - Amb Express, 2017 - Springer
The first methanotrophic syntheses of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) that contain repeating
units beyond 3-hydroxybutyrate and 3-hydroxyvalerate are reported. New PHAs synthesized …

Identification of primary effecters of N2O emissions from full-scale biological nitrogen removal systems using random forest approach

…, WB Bae, J Lee, H Han, DD Kim, M Kwon, J Myung… - Water Research, 2020 - Elsevier
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have long been recognized as point sources of N 2 O,
a potent greenhouse gas and ozone-depleting agent. Multiple mechanisms, both biotic …

Production of nitrous oxide from nitrite in stable type II methanotrophic enrichments

J Myung, Z Wang, T Yuan, P Zhang… - … science & technology, 2015 - ACS Publications
The coupled aerobic–anoxic nitrous decomposition operation is a new process for wastewater
treatment that removes nitrogen from wastewater and recovers energy from the nitrogen …

[HTML][HTML] Bridging three gaps in biodegradable plastics: misconceptions and truths about biodegradation

S Choe, Y Kim, Y Won, J Myung - Frontiers in Chemistry, 2021 - frontiersin.org
In the wake of plastic pollution increasing around the world, biodegradable plastics are one
of the fastest-growing segments within the global plastics market. The biodegradation of …

Long-term cultivation of a stable Methylocystis-dominated methanotrophic enrichment enabling tailored production of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate)

J Myung, WM Galega, JD Van Nostrand, T Yuan… - Bioresource …, 2015 - Elsevier
Methane (CH 4 ) is a readily available feedstock for production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs).
The structure and PHA production capacity of a Methylocystis-dominated …

Methane or methanol-oxidation dependent synthesis of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) by obligate type II methanotrophs

J Myung, JCA Flanagan, RM Waymouth… - Process Biochemistry, 2016 - Elsevier
Obligate methanotrophs capable of producing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), a
sustainable alternative to non-biodegradable petroleum-based plastics, under nutrient-limited …

Biodegradation of 3D-printed biodegradable/non-biodegradable plastic blends

…, J Park, AT Mossisa, S Lee, J Myung - ACS Applied Polymer …, 2022 - ACS Publications
Thermoplastic blends are applied for three-dimensional (3D) printing to obtain improved
functionality. While thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties of 3D-printed blends are …

Low energy emulsion-based fermentation enabling accelerated methane mass transfer and growth of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate)-accumulating methanotrophs

J Myung, M Kim, M Pan, CS Criddle, SKY Tang - Bioresource technology, 2016 - Elsevier
Methane is a low-cost feedstock for the production of polyhydroxyalkanoate biopolymers,
but methanotroph fermentations are limited by the low solubility of methane in water. To …

Disassembly and reassembly of polyhydroxyalkanoates: Recycling through abiotic depolymerization and biotic repolymerization
