A grazing trial compared the effect of stocking rate on corn residue removal and nutrient quality over a 55 d period. Treatments included no removal (control), light grazing (2.5 animal unit months/ha), heavy grazing (4.9 animal unit months/ha), and baling (bale), that were applied to eight 6.6 ha paddocks (2 replications) on a 53 ha center pivot irrigated field of corn residue from mid-Decembe...

We synthesized mesoporous SiO2 nanomatrix using rice husks as a precursor through facile thermal combustion process. XRD, FTIR, EDX, and TEM analyses were used to validate the produced nanomatrix. Electrochemical measurements determine specific capacitance of nanomatrix, results showed that capacitances are 216, 204, 182, 163, 152, 142, 135, 133, 124.4, 124 F/g at current densities 0.5, 1, 2, 4...

The organosolv-fractionation process can act as a biorefinery because it separate the main components of biomass, such lignin and hemicellulose, with high purity. ethanol-based was applied to carbohydrates from rice husks, extraction behavior observed according various reaction variables. Various conditions different temperatures (150 °C, 170 190 °C), times (30 min, 60 120 min), ethanol concent...

In developing countries’ socio-environmental background, fossil fuel use is evolving at the same time as deforestation, resulting in desertification and global warming. There an urgent need to find alternative sustainable environmentally friendly sources such biomass briquettes. This study aims analyse effect of densification temperature on characteristics briquettes produced from rice husks. T...

Rice flour, corn flour and deoiled rice bran blends were used to prepare ready-to-eat extrudates
