Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 1656-1676, April 2026.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

Techno‐economic analysis for hydroxy acids production from waste cellulose via alkaline digestion

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 904-914, April 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Alkaline digestion offers a promising route for converting low‐grade cellulosic wastes into valuable hydroxy carboxylic acids (HAs). However, the feasibility of producing HAs at process scale, particularly the influence of reactor design on product yields, energy demand, and production costs, remains less explored.

Designing the Future of Food: Challenges to Innovation in Microalgae‐Derived Blue Protein Systems

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
This image illustrates the key factors in protein extraction from microalgae, along with the main sustainability opportunities and associated risks. ABSTRACT Microalgae are emerging as promising sources of “blue proteins,” a term used to categorize aquatic proteins derived from marine and freshwater organisms.

Engineering Biology's Vital Role for Climate Mitigation

Engineering Biology, Volume 10, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the potential role of engineering biology in contributing to climate mitigation through the de‐fossilisation of fuels, chemicals, materials and food systems. Although significant progress is being made in de‐fossilising energy via renewable electricity generation, other more carbon‐centric sectors—notably transport ...

THE MIXTURE OF BIOBUTANOL AND PETROL FOR OTTO ENGINES

TRANSPORT, 2009
The expansion of production and the use of biofuels are determined by the legal acts of the European Commission and National legal acts encouraging such production and usage. It would be meaningful to use the mixtures of butanol and petrol in Otto engines.

A Critical Evaluation of Sustainability Practices, Waste Management Strategies, and Circular Economy Principles in Sago Processing Optimisation

Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This narrative review offers a critical, decision‐oriented synthesis of sustainability practices, waste management strategies, and circular economy levers for optimising Metroxylon sagu (sago) processing at mill scale. Evidence from 2000 to 2025 is organised against two frames: the circular economy principles (eliminate waste and pollution, circulate ...
