Kappaphycus alvarezii is a red macroalgae widely used to produce carrageenan. The carrageenan processing produces a by-product rich in glucan which has been reported as easily hydrolyzed with enzymes, but the hydrolysate ...

Depolymerization of cellulose in homogeneous acidic medium is analyzed on the basis of autocatalytic model of hydrolysis with a positive feedback of acid production from the degraded biopolymer. The normalized number of ...

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have a promising application in many advanced products, such as biomedical applications and hydrogels. In this research, industrial cotton waste was treated using alkali and bleaching to ...

The acid hydrolysis under ultrasound stimulation of solventless tetraethoxysilane(TEOS)-water mixtures was studied at 40 degrees C, by means of a heat flux calorimetric method, as a function of the initial water/TEOS molar ...

Brazil is the second-largest world producer of pineapple and generates almost 45% of its initial mass in wastes after industrialization, mainly due to the inappropriate deposition of peel and crown, which contribute to ...

A fuzzy logic feedback control system was developed for process monitoring and feeding control in fed-batch enzymatic hydrolysis of a lignocellulosic biomass, dilute acid-pretreated corn stover. Digested glucose from ...
