An indigenous locally isolated white rot fungal strain Phanerochaete chrysosporium IBL-03 was investigated for the hyper-production of ligninolytic enzymes from different agro-industrial wastes including wheat straw, rice straw, banana stalks, corncobs, corn stover, and sugarcane bagasse as substrate material in still culture fermentation technique. Screening experiments were performed at 30C f...

Sugarcane bagasse (SCB), one of the major lignocellulosic agro-industrial waste products, was used as a substrate for biosynthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) by halophilic archaea. Among the various wild-type halophilic archaeal strains screened, Halogeometricum borinquense strain E3 showed better growth and PHA accumulation as compared to Haloferaxvolcanii strain BBK2, Haloarcula japonica ...

Field studies that address the production of lignocellulosic biomass as a source of renewable energy provide critical data for the development of bioenergy crop models. A literature survey revealed that 14 models have been used for simulating bioenergy crops including herbaceous and woody bioenergy crops, and for crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) crops. These models simulate field-scale produc...

Abstract Sugarcane bagasse is an agro-industrial waste available in enormous quantities Egypt. It rich of organic carbon which makes it a potential feedstock for activated production. This study provides optimized pyrolysis method production from bagasse. samples impregnated with sulfuric acid, 24 h, and carbonized at 500 °C, two hours, yielded the best surface area 431.375 m 2 /g. The impregna...

BACKGROUND The development of 'energycane' varieties of sugarcane is underway, targeting the use of both sugar juice and bagasse for ethanol production. The current study evaluated a selection of such 'energycane' cultivars for the combined ethanol yields from juice and bagasse, by optimization of dilute acid pretreatment optimization of bagasse for sugar yields. METHOD A central composite de...

The article discusses the aspects of establishment of food sovereignty from the regional point of view. Herewith, it is mentioned that the established food sovereignty of a state should be based on food sovereignty of regions as separate administrative and territorial units. The most prioritized field of development of agro-industrial complex is rational distribution and efficient specializatio...

A feasibility analysis of the agro photovoltaic approach applied in sugarcane energy sector is presented. tailored architecture implementation was designed to be installed above and on same area plot without reduction planted area, respecting agronomic requirements crop. Were analyzed mutual influences, necessary adjustments crop handling, life cycle management, cross effects agro-industrial co...

In this work, the techno-economic and exergy analyses of two gasification technologies with integration into heat power combined cycles are presented: i). Circulating fluidized bed (CFB) ii). Dual (DFB) systems. As feedstock, lignocellulosic biomass (sugarcane bagasse, SCB) was considered . The process fluidized-bed systems (circulating dual bed) syngas conversion were performed using Aspen Plu...
