Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Energy security and sustainability drive the exploration of innovative conversion strategies for abundant biomass waste into energy‐dense products (solid, liquid, and gaseous biofuels). This study demonstrated the catalytic potential of a coal fly ash (CFA)‐derived ZSM‐5 zeolite in enhancing biomass pyrolysis, focusing on lignocellulosic ...

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is an extremely invasive aquatic plant with notable environmental and socioeconomic impacts; however, its unique physicochemical properties offer potential for wastewater treatment through adsorption. This study investigates the acid activation of water hyacinth using acetic, sulphuric, hydrochloric, and ...

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

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract The growing global demand for sustainable energy solutions has intensified the search for renewable alternatives to fossil fuels, with biodiesel emerging as a promising candidate due to its biodegradability and lower emissions. However, its large‐scale application is limited by low oxidative stability, which compromises storage and performance.

The Net Global Effects of Alternative U.S. Biofuel Mandates [PDF]
, 2012 One of the declared objectives of U.S. biofuel policy is the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from fossil fuel combustion, but many studies have questioned whether such a reduction would actually occur and, if so, how large it would be.

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Energy is the basis for socio‐economic development. The effects of fossil‐based energy sources underscore the urgent need for renewable and cost‐effective alternatives. Biofuels derived from non‐edible and low‐cost feedstocks are a promising alternative.

IMPACT OF US AND EUROPEAN BIOFUEL POLICIES ON FOREST CARBON [PDF]
This paper develops a dynamic, regional analysis of the effects of US and European biofuel mandates on land use, forestry stocks, and carbon emissions. The results suggest that these mandates may cause an additional 23-26 million hectares of forestland ...
