Bioconversion and characterization of watermelon rind waste‐based microcrystalline cellulose: A green alternative to synthetic reinforcements

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was extracted from watermelon rind using acid hydrolysis. MCC can be efficiently used as reinforcement in biofilms and biocomposites. Abstract The increasing accumulation of agricultural waste from watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) represents a substantial environmental concern, particularly in view of the extensive ...

Exploring the bioeconomy as discourse: identifying archetypical bioeconomy discourses and the emergence of a transformative bioeconomy

Ecology and Society
The bioeconomy is a major concept in both academic and policy debates, but what it actually means remains diverse across contexts. In this integrative literature review, I explore different onto-epistemological positions, societal relations to nature ...

Protocol monitoring materiaalstromen biobased economie

, 2014
De biobased economy staat aan het begin van haar ontwikkeling. Het is noodzakelijk en uitdagend om juist in deze fase de ontwikkelingen in kaart te brengen. Dat kan alleen als er een goede afstemming is over de definities, uitgangspunten en methode van monitoring. Voor u ligt het eerste monitoringsprotocol voor de biobased economy.

Unsaturated biobased polyesters from bicyclic α‐pinene‐based diols

Polymer International, EarlyView.
We present the synthesis of four biosourced unsaturated polyesters made from chiral terpene‐based diols and esters of renewable diacids. The resulting materials harbor a bicyclic pinene ring in their backbones which leads to enhanced thermal properties while still conferring susceptibility to enzyme hydrolysis for chains having a cis alkene.

Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...
