Date palm trees, being an important source of nutrition, are grown at a large scale in Saudi Arabia. The biomass waste date palm, discarded non-environmentally-friendly manner present, can be used for biofuel generation through the fast pyrolysis technique. This technique is considered viable thermochemical conversion solid into biofuels terms initial investment, production cost, and operationa...

Balancing the needs of current and future generations stimulates investment for sustainable development such as converting waste biomass into biorenewables. Sugar-based ethanol production is a well-investigated established process, researchers are now focusing on transformation cellulosic to sugar application non-conventional methods production. The State Qatar generates date palm fruit approxi...

Many high-value added recombinant proteins, such as therapeutic glycoproteins, are produced using mammalian cell cultures. In order to optimize the productivity of these cultures it is important to monitor cellular metabolism, for example the utilization of nutrients and the accumulation of metabolic waste products. One metabolic waste product of interest is lactic acid (lactate), overaccumulat...
