BIOFUELS, CLIMATE POLICY, AND WATER MANAGEMENT: ASSESSING POLICY-INDUCED SHIFTS ON AGRICULTURE’S EXTENSIVE AND INTENSIVE MARGINS [PDF]
Biofuel expansion efforts and climate mitigation policy could fundamentally alter land management trends in U.S. agriculture and forestry (AF) by mandating biofuel feedstock production and providing incentives for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction

This study offers a sustainable approach for converting soft tissue waste into bioethanol, promoting the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Employing hybrid hydrolysis and the yeast Hanseniaspora uvarum, a glucose yield of 10.86 g L−1 is attained, with optimal bioethanol production reaching 7.55 g L−1, highlighting the potential of soft ...

In this work, the copper‐binding histidine brace (His‐brace) motif found in lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) enzymes was engineered in de novo designed peptides that fold as β‐hairpins (HisPins). Cu‐HisPins complexes showed LPMO‐like activity, including light‐stimulated melanin‐mediated oxidative cellulose degradation.

Contributions of U.S. Crop Subsidies to Biofuel and Related Markets [PDF]
The U.S. crop subsidies provide incentives for farmers to expand feedstock production, which benefits the biofuel producers by lowering input costs. This study develops a general equilibrium model to analyze the effects of a reduction in the U.S.
