A sustainable lignocellulosic biodiesel production integrating solar- and bio-power generation
(2016-06-04)
A solar-bio-powered refining concept has been developed to establish sustainable lignocellulosic biodiesel production. The refining concept applies a combined hydrolysis process without detoxification to release sugars ...
A mechano-biocatalytic one-pot approach to release sugars from lignocellulosic materials
(2020)
A novel, mechano-biocatalytic one-pot process was developed by this study to efficiently release monosaccharides from lignocellulosic materials in an environmentally-friendly manner. The process synergistically integrates ...
Techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment of algal cultivation on liquid anaerobic digestion effluent for algal biomass production and wastewater treatment
(2022-03-24)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate techno-economic feasibility and life cycle impact of algal cultivation to produce algal biomass and recover nutrients in liquid anaerobic digestate. Two pretreatment methods, namely ...
Techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment of pineapple leaves utilization in Costa Rica
(2022-06-30)
Pineapple production around the world creates large amounts of wasted organic residue, mainly in the form of pineapple leaves. Current management practices consist of in situ decomposition or in situ burning, both of which ...
Production of renewable fuel and value-added bioproducts using pineapple leaves in Costa Rica
(2020-10)
Pineapple, Ananas comosus, is one of the most important cash crops in Costa Rica with more than 44,500 ha of plantation. The pineapple industry contributes approximately 1.7% of the gross domestic product (GDP) of Costa ...
Small-scale solar–Bio-hybrid power generation Using Brayton and rankine cycles
(2021-01-17)
