The bioconversion of cellulose and hemicellulose to soluble sugars is important for global stabilization and a sustainable human society. Here, hundreds of cellulolytic bacteria were screened and isolated from soil, compost, and animal waste slurry in Jeju Island, South Korea. Among the isolates, three strains, SL9-9, C5-16, and S52-2, showing higher potential for practical uses were purified o...

Waste pulp residues are herein exploited for the synthesis of a sorbent for humic acid (HA), which is a major water pollutant. Cellulose pulp was etherified with a quaternary ammonium salt in water thereby introducing positive charges onto the surface of the pulp fibers, and subsequently mechanically disintegrated into high surface area cellulose nanofibers (CNF). CNF with three different charg...

Biofuels have emerged as one of the important sustainable fuel sources and are considered as a promising way to minimize Greenhouse Gas emissions and provide new energy sources [13]. Different countries have developed different strategies to introduce biofuels. The main concern is the economic drivers for each fuel, which varies with location and feedstocks. In addition, strategic and environme...

The management of solid waste is a major problem all over the globe. techniques available for are not so eco-friendly nor cheap, so, biological methods seems to be only way find solution this problem. termites have potential digest cellulose due presence diverse microbiota in their gut. Due large number and voracious feeding habit they can prove one best agents waste.

Lignocellulosic wastes are abundant, renewable and inexpensive sources of energy. This wastes contains large amount of residual plant biomass which is non edible material obtained from plant cell walls. Biomass could be obtained from crop, domestic liquid fuel, municipal solid waste and agricultural residuals. In nature, cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin are major component of plant biomass t...

Cellulose nanofibers (CNF) have been applied in various applications due to the abundant raw materials and excellent mechanical thermal properties. In this work, CNF from Cigarette butts (CNF-CB) was used as emulsion stabilized for oil water emulsion. prepared regenerated cellulose fibers that were produced by deacetylation of waste using autoclave then hydrolysis chemical treatment sulfuric ac...

Cellulose is the most abundant material in earth, it considered a renewable polymer of cell walls wood and plant cells, their interest use different field purpose extracting namely: cellulose native (cotton), transformation into sheets (paper filter paper), cupric cellulose, zinc (industrial applications), functionalization cellulosic materials printed electronics, textile, treatment, medicine,...

In order to evaluate the possibility use of palm waste cellulose as a substitute substrate for growing pot plants, an experiment was conducted in completely randomized block design with 6 replication and six treatments on Aglaonema sp. The treatments were 5 levels including 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 palm celluloid wastes mixed with different rates of some amendments such as peat, coconut coir, perl...

In order to protect the environment and cellulose resources, yarn wastes from textile industry, which contains a considerable amount of cellulose, can be used produce microcrystalline cellulose. this study, waste was milled via ball mill subjected acid hydrolysis using sulfuric hydrochloric at different times. It characterized through various tests determine particle size, degree polymerization...

AbstractOil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch (OPEFB) is a type of solid waste from the palm oil processing industry. The components OPEFB include cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. has large cellulose content, so it possesses potential to be used as bioplastic material. purpose this research was examine stages bioplastics' production process its characterization. content raw material during isolation ...
