Chlorella micro algae strains offer sustainable biomass feedstocks in biofuel production because of their resilience, diversity, high adaptability to environmental stresses, flexible cultivation alternatives and high bio...

Today’s main topic is global warming and carbon neutrality. We therefore investigate biofuel (Bio-Energy) in our living space; its amount is comparable to fossil fuel. We analyze the production of hydrogen by processin...

Background: Microbial lipid production represents a potential alternative feedstock for the biofuel and oleochemical industries. Since Escherichia coli exhibits many genetic, technical, and biotechnological advantages ov...

The sustainable production of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from glucose remains a major challenge in advancing bio-based chemical platforms. Despite extensive research, achieving high HMF yields in environmentally frien...

The transesterification reaction of soybean oil with methanol is studied with different gAl2O3 heterogeneous catalysts. The catalysts used are K-gAl2O3, Na-gAl2O3, Li-gAl2O3, Ca-gAl2O3 and Ba-gAl2O3 both 5% and 10% in me...

Abstract Cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an important staple food in sub–Saharan Africa. Over 60% of the global cassava production occurs in Africa, with the southern African region contributing approximately 15% to thi...

The advancement of global endeavors to mitigate climate change is largely influenced by developments within China’s transportation sector. This study focuses on the crucial role of biodiesel as a biofuel in China’s t...

Increases in petroleum prices have affected the prices of its derived products. In addition, the interest in issues related to the environment and energy security at world-wide level has been increased. All of these fact...

Waste materials from agricultural and food packaging usage pose significant health and environmental challenges, where the main source of waste originates from plastics and protein-based amino acids, and their thermal de...

Abstract Accurate prediction of bio-oil yield from pyrolysis of organic solid waste is still the main problem in the field of biomass valorization, mostly because of high variability in the composition and the heterogene...

ABSTRACT Amphibians are excellent bioindicators because they are sensitive to chemical pollution and can indicate ecosystem changes due to the presence of or exposure to chemical compounds. Here we report evidence of the...

In the last three years, 2 billion tonnes of untreated and dismissed agricultural wastes have been accumulated without adequate management of reuse or final disposal, resulting in dumping or burning. The circular economy...

Arundo donax L. es un cultivo perenne, que ha demostrado, un buen rendimiento de biomasa por hectárea y su potencialidad como biocombustible sólido. En estetrabajo se evalúa la producción de biometano a partir de la ...

Abstract In this work, the intelligent Levenberg–Marquardt optimization approach is applied to evaluate the activation energy influence on thermo-bioconvection flow of a trihybrid nanofluid including oxytactic microbes...

During the last years, microorganisms (yeasts, fungi, microalgae and bacteria) have been receiving increasing attention as alternative lipid sources (also called single cells oils). Some lipid-accumulating bacteria, in p...

Fil: Martínez, María Laura. Universidad de la República. Facultad de Humanidades y Ciencias de la Educación; Uruguay. En el marco de un intento activo de promover el desarrollo agrícola e industrial del Uruguay, dur...

"A lo largo de esta tesis analizaremos las diferentes alternativas a los alimentos que pueden existir para la producción de biocombustibles. Se puede observar que si aumenta la emanda de alimentos para producir combus...

"El negocio del startup Algae Liquor consiste en la producción y venta de aceite vegetal como materia prima para la elaboración de biodiesel, conjuntamente con proteína vegetal como suplemento alimenticio para el merc...

"El presente estudio busca arrojar luz sobre las variables a tener en cuenta para diseñar una industria sustentable a largo plazo en el sector biocombustibles, específicamente en la producción de bioetanol carburante....

En la presente tesis se plantea el modelado del equilibrio entre fases de mezclas de importancia en biorrefinerías, y el desarrollo de módulos de simulación de procesos y productos. El modelo termodinámico empleado...
