Valorization of biomass: deriving more value from waste.
Most of the carbon-based compounds currently manufactured by the chemical industry are derived from petroleum. The rising cost and dwindling supply of oil have been focusing attention on possible routes to making chemicals, fuels, and solvents from biomass instead. In this context, many recent studies have assessed the relative merits of applying different dedicated crops to chemical production...
متن کاملMetal Carbides for Biomass Valorization
Transition metal carbides have been utilized as an alternative catalyst to expensive noble metals for the conversion of biomass. Tungsten and molybdenum carbides have been shown to be effective catalysts for hydrogenation, hydrodeoxygenation and isomerization reactions. The satisfactory activities of these metal carbides and their low costs, compared with noble metals, make them appealing alter...
متن کاملPost-print version submitted to Waste and Biomass Valorization Suggested Citation M.Varman and S. Saka. "A Comparative Study of Oil Palm and Japanese Beech on Their Fractionation and Characterization as Treated by Supercritical Water" Waste and Biomass Valorization
13 Supercritical water treatment (380ºC/100MPa/8s) was applied to extractives-14 free oil palm trunk and sapwood portion of Japanese beech and their fractionated 15 products were comparatively characterized, for water-soluble portion and water-16 insoluble portion composed of methanol-soluble portion and methanol-insoluble 17 residue. As a result, the water-soluble portion was determined to be ...
متن کاملValorization of Agroforest Crops for Biomass Utilization
There is a growing need to consider alternative agricultural strategies that move an agricultural industry focused on food production to one that also supplies the needs of other industrial sectors, such as paper, textiles, biofuels or added-value chemicals, in the context of the so-called lignocellulose biorefinery. Biorefineries use renewable raw materials to produce energy together with a wi...
متن کاملValorization of Sargassum muticum Biomass According to the Biorefinery Concept
The biorefinery concept integrates processes and technologies for an efficient biomass conversion using all components of a feedstock. Sargassum muticum is an invasive brown algae which could be regarded as a renewable resource susceptible of individual valorization of the constituent fractions into high added-value compounds. Microwave drying technology can be proposed before conventional etha...
