Abstract Biochar yield prediction plays a critical role in optimizing pyrolysis processes and advancing sustainable biomass utilization. This study introduces a hybrid machine learning framework that integrates Decision ...

Abstract Sustainable batteries necessitate high-performance hard carbon negative electrodes derived from abundant biomass. However, realizing their full potential is significantly limited by the inherent diversity of bio...

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...

Alkaline treatment is well -suited for extracting high-molecular-weight hemicelluloses, specifically hardwoods xylans, which, due to their polymer structure and chemical characteristics, enable the production of films wi...

Xylans are essential components of wood cell walls, composed of β-(1 → 4)-linked d-xylopyranosyl units with diverse substitutions, including 4-O-methyl-α-D-glucuronic acid. Industrial pruning of Moringa oleifera gene...

The palm oil industry plays a key socio-economic role in tropical countries but generates waste with untapped economic potential. This work aims to advance sustainable solutions through valorization of plantation waste, ...

The catalytic degradation of toxic synthetic dyes in wastewater remains a pressing environmental concern due to their adverse effects on ecosystems and public health. In this study, we present a green and sustainable met...

The valorization of fishery-derived wastes through microalgal biotechnology provides a practical route to integrate wastewater remediation with high-value bioproduct generation. This study demonstrates an integrated proc...

The valorization of carbon dioxide (CO₂)-rich streams is emerging as a key pillar of a circular, climate-neutral bioeconomy. Biological platforms such as microalgae cultivation, anaerobic fermentation and microbial pol...

Processing residues from adult Tenebrio molitor were evaluated as a sustainable source of chitin and chitosan through an optimized enzyme-assisted extraction strategy. Preliminary proximate analysis revealed a high chiti...

This study examines the fast pyrolysis of rosehip seed waste (RSW) in a fluidized bed reactor, evaluating its potential for syngas production and effective waste valorization. The fluidization behavior of sand/RSW mixtur...

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with potential for the development of multi-product processes are necessary for the valorization of side streams obtained during the biotechnological production of lactic acid (LA). In this stu...

Abstract Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) transforms wet or dry biomass into hydrochar, generating a nutrient-rich process water, hereafter termed HTC-PW, which is often overlooked as waste. This review synthesizes curre...

Lignin, a renewable aromatic polymer found in lignocellulosic biomass, has several potential uses due to its antioxidant, antibacterial, and UV-absorbing qualities. The aim of this work was to extract soda lignin for sun...

Secondary products from the agro-industrial complex in the Republic of Moldova are potential resources for biorefineries, that is, which process secondary bioproducts into raw materials for the production of value-added ...
