Feedstock Platform
نویسنده
چکیده
The size of the U.S. bioindustry will, to a large degree, be determined by the quantity and quality of biomass available. As the starting material in the biomass-to-biofuels supply chain, a sufficient and secure supply of affordable feedstocks is a critical step in accomplishing the Program goals. The Feedstock platform therefore relates strongly to all other facets of the program portfolio; it is, however, specifically linked to the Conversion platform as feedstock is the substrate for conversion technologies.

An Efficient Utilization of Waste Date Pit Oil for Ethyl Ester Production
As a green material, used date pits oil is increasingly utilized as inexpensive feedstock for ethyl ester (biodiesel) production. Waste date pits as a raw material are one of the highly produced agricultural wastes in Iran. This study investigated the effect of several procedure parameters including the ethanol/oil molar ratio, reaction temperature and amount of catalysts on the yield of the pr...
متن کاملImplementation and initial evaluation of a decision support platform for selecting production routes of biomass-derived chemicals
A decision support platform is developed to evaluate and screen options for producing chemicals from biomass feedstock. The platform is based on the modelling of the socalled compartmental processing blocks (CPBs) and their connections. It includes a simulation tool and a synthesis/optimisation tool, both based on a central database which holds process and economic information about individual ...
متن کاملOleaginous yeast platform for producing biofuels via co-solvent hydrothermal liquefaction
BACKGROUND Oleaginous microorganisms are attractive feedstock for production of liquid biofuels. Direct hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is an efficient route that converts whole, wet biomass into an energy-dense liquid fuel precursor, called 'biocrude'. HTL represents a promising alternative to conventional lipid extraction methods as it does not require a dry feedstock or additional steps for ...

متن کاملDesign of a tailor‐made platform for syngas bioconversion into polyhydroxybutyrate
Biodegradable polymers such as polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) are part of the emerging portfolio of renewable materials, which are addressing the issue of plastic waste. Syngas, as a cheap, renewable and sustainable resource that can be obtained from biomass or waste, is viewed as an excellent feedstock for different bioprocesses, including syngas to PHB bioconversion. However, due to the hazardous ...
