From refuse to resource: exploring technological and economic dimensions of waste‐to‐energy

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 19, Issue 2, Page 570-592, March/April 2025.
Abstract Waste valorization offers a sustainable approach to waste management and the generation of biofuels and bioenergy, mitigating the environmental impact of fossil fuel production and use. Carbon emissions and food‐source competition associated with first‐generation biofuels production can be mitigated.

Energia da biomassa de cana-de-açúcar sob influência de hidrogel, cobertura vegetal e profundidade de plantio Biomass energy from sugarcane under influence of hydrogel, vegetation cover and planting depth

Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2013
A colheita mecanizada é melhor executada em sulcos rasos. O palhiço promove maior retenção hídrica, diminui a evaporação superficial mas compromete a brotação. Polímeros alteram a fisiologia disponibilizando água e nutrientes.
