This work aimed to study the potential use of pyrolyzed orange peels as solid biofuels and biosorption of heavy metals. The dry biomass and the biofuel showed moderate levels of carbon (44-62%), high levels of oxygen ...

Argentina is one of the world's largest biodiesel producers and the largest exporter, using soybeans as feedstock. Using a computable general equilibrium model that explicitly represents the biofuel industry, this study ...

Advanced biofuels, when used as components in fuels, offer advantages over fossil-based hydro-carbons and conventional biofuels to realize highly efficient and clean propulsion systems. Among the several chemical routes ...

Liquid biofuels can be produced from a variety of feedstocks and processes. Ethanol and biodiesel production processes based on conventional raw materials are already commercial, but subject to further improvement and ...

Crambe is an important biofuel crop and its oil has unique traits such as high erucic acid content which can be used as industrial lubricant, corrosion inhibitor as well as ingredient in synthetic rubber manufacturing. ...

Biorefineries intends to utilize algal biomass and their by-products at industrial scale. The macroalgae Kappa-phycus alvarezii has high content of carrageenan, which is a polysaccharide hydrocolloid, serving as a raw ...
