Acid hydrolysis is a key process for the production of platform chemicals from biomass, however solid residues by-products can amount to 50 wt% starting biomass material. In this study, biofuel precursor levulinic acid were generated via microwave-assisted Miscanthus x Giganteus and investigated supplementation anaerobic reactors digesting Chicken Manure. The addition increased methane yields b...

As a standard for the exchange, transmission, and reporting of accounting and financial data, XRBL goes a long way toward standardization. However, as the extent of contemporary financial markets is now global, XBRL reporting must transcend or accommodate differences in reporting standards. While XBRL has been of great help in standardizing the presentation of the U.S. GAAP and IASB standards, ...

Proteomics will contribute greatly to the understanding of gene functions in the post-genomic era. In proteome research, protein digestion is a key procedure prior to mass spectrometry identification. During the past decade, a variety of electromagnetic waves have been employed to accelerate proteolysis. This review focuses on the recent advances and the key strategies of these novel proteolysi...

water-pollution control analysis. It is closely related to the organic contamination level of a water or wastewater sample. The Cr-COD method is used as the standard in USA and Taiwan. Compared to Japanese Mn-COD method, it has a higher detection limit and severe chloride ion interference because of the stronger oxidant and the longer digestion time. In order to reduce the chloride-ion interfer...
