Suitability of agroindustrial residues for cellulose-based materials production

2017
The depletion of fossil resources and negative environmental impact related to conventional polymeric materials life cycle have fostered the search for renewable raw materials suitable for their manufacturing. This work aims to present a methodology for the selection of agroindustrial residues with potential to be used as feedstock in cellulose-based ...

Valorization of tequila agroindustrial residues for ruminants feeding

2012
The aim of this study was to investigate a suitable technology for the use of bagasse of Agave tequilana W. var. azul in food ratios for ruminants. Physical and chemical characteristics of bagasse were evaluated. According to these characteriztics, bagasse can be used as a supplement in ruminant feeding.

Assessment of the fertiliser potential of digestates from farm and agroindustrial residues

Biomass and Bioenergy, 2012
The sustainability of biogas production systems depends greatly on the appropriate disposal of the digestates produced. The main agrochemical characteristics of 12 digestates from the anaerobic co-digestion of farm and agroindustrial residues were determined and compared with quality standards to assess their potential use as fertilisers.
