Effective pretreatment of wet microalgal biomass to enhance lipid extraction in biodiesel production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiesel is a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Identifying and evaluating nonedible sources is essential to address ecological concerns and meet energy demands. Microalgae are effective for lipid production but their rigid cell walls hinder bioproduct release making the process energy‐intensive and costly.

The Role of Irrigation in Determining the Global Land Use Impacts of Biofuels [PDF]

open access: yes
In recent years there has been a flurry of activity aimed at evaluating the land use consequences of biofuels programs and the associated carbon releases. In this paper we argue that these studies have tended to underestimate the ensuing land use change,

Sustainable and cost‐effective process design for energy‐self‐sufficient ethyl lactate production from sugar mill feedstocks: a techno‐economic approach

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Bio‐based ethyl lactate (EL) can replace several fossil‐derived products owing to its low toxicity, high solvent functionality, and environmental advantages. This study assesses the techno‐economic viability and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction potential of producing EL from sugarcane A‐molasses and lignocelluloses in an energy self‐sufficient ...

Process development priorities for scaling up direct microbial conversion of sugars into value‐added biochemicals

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The study identified process development priorities toward the feasible production of five value‐added biochemicals in a sugarcane biorefinery based on achievable bioconversion performances. Multiple process scenarios using A‐molasses as feedstock were simulated in Aspen Plus® via direct microbial conversions.

Integrated bioconversion of starchy and hemicellulosic fractions of macauba oil presscake into ethanol by nonconventional yeasts

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Co‐fermentation of hexoses and pentoses from plant biomass to ethanol is a strategy to increase ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials and add value to residues from agroindustrial chains. The macauba (Acrocomia aculeata) is an oleaginous palm‐tree species considered to contribute to development in some regions of Brazil.
