متن کاملEngineering Plant Biomass Lignin Content and Composition for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Lignin is an aromatic biopolymer involved in providing structural support to plant cell walls. Compared to the other cell wall polymers, i.e., cellulose and hemicelluloses, lignin has been considered a hindrance in cellulosic bioethanol production due to the complexity involved in its separation from other polymers of various biomass feedstocks. Nevertheless, lignin is a potential source of val...
متن کاملAlgal biofuels: challenges and opportunities.
Biodiesel production using microalgae is attractive in a number of respects. Here a number of pros and cons to using microalgae for biofuels production are reviewed. Algal cultivation can be carried out using non-arable land and non-potable water with simple nutrient supply. In addition, algal biomass productivities are much higher than those of vascular plants and the extractable content of li...
متن کاملGreen biofuels and bioproducts: bases for sustainability analysis
Currently, the chemical industry is largely petroleum based and although the number of ongoing large-scale biocatalytic processes is relatively low, a trend in growth is expected and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and other agencies aim to have 30% of the total chemical industry based on renewable sources by 2050 (Philp et al., 2013). At present, a good number ...
متن کاملUtilization of Algal Consortium to Produce Biofuels and Byproducts For Reducing Pollution load
Algal biorefinery process utilizes every component of algal biomass to produce multiple useful fuel products. In this technique, acid pretreatment of algal biomass hydrolyzes microalgal carbohydrates into fermentable sugars, makes lipids more extractable and a protein part accessible for additional products. In the present study, Chlorella sorkiniana produced higher quantity of biodiesel than B...
