Challenges of Cellulosic Ethanol Production from Xylose-extracted Corncob Residues
Xylose-extracted corncob residue (X-ER), a byproduct from the xylose production industry, is a potential cellulose-rich energy resource. However, attempts to achieve large-scale production of cellulosic ethanol using X-ER have been unsatisfactory due to a lack of understanding of the substrate. This study presents the first characterization of the X-ER to evaluate its potential utilization in t...
متن کاملChiral nematic mesoporous carbon derived from nanocrystalline cellulose.
Template synthesis based on the self-assembly of lyotropic liquid crystals offers access to mesoporous solids with high specific surface areas and periodic structures. Incorporating mesopores (i.e., pores ranging from 2 to 50 nm in diameter) into carbonaceous materials may be advantageous for certain applications, including the adsorption of large molecules, electrochemical double-layer capacit...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of the cellulose gene of the pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, using RNA interference.
Cellulases are pathogenic substances suspected to be responsible for the development of the early symptoms of nematode disease. The pine wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Parasitaphelenchidae), is the causal agent of pine wilt disease, which kills millions of pine trees. We used RNA interference (RNAi), a reverse genetic tool, to analyze the function of the endo-β-1,4-glucanase ge...
متن کاملProduction and Characterisation of Cellulose and Nano- Crystalline Cellulose from Kenaf Core Wood
Natural fibers such as kenaf have been studied extensively as a reinforcing phase and received major attention recently due to their renewability, biodegradability, and high strength comparable to other synthetic fibers. In this study, nano-crystalline cellulose (NCC) was produced from kenaf core wood using the acid hydrolysis method. Kenaf core was alkali treated with a 4 wt% of sodium hydroxi...
متن کاملRheological properties of nanocrystalline cellulose suspensions.
Rheological behavior, including linear and nonlinear, as well as transient rheology of nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) suspensions was studied in this work. Two kinds of polymer solutions, aqueous poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with flexible chain structure and aqueous carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) with semi-rigid chain structure, were used as the suspension media to further explore the role that th...
