Direct Conversion of Minimally Pretreated Corncob by Enzyme-Intensified Microbial Consortia

Agriculture
The presence of diverse carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) is crucial for the direct bioconversion of lignocellulose. In this study, various anaerobic microbial consortia were employed for the degradation of 10 g/L of minimally pretreated corncob. The

Are Biofuels Good for African Development? An Analytical Framework with Evidence from Mozambique and Tanzania [PDF]

Many low income countries in Africa are optimistic that producing biofuels domestically will not only reduce their dependence on imported fossil fuels, but also stimulate economic development, particularly in poorer rural areas.

Sustainable biofuels in the EU : the costs of certification and impacts on new producers

, 2011
While certification aims to differentiate biofuels according to their sustainability, itcan also affect prospects for market access. While the final consumer ultimately bearsthe costs of certified biofuels, the split of certification costs along supply ...

Gender Implications of Biofuels Expansion: A CGE Analysis for Mozambique [PDF]

We use a gendered computable general equilibrium model to assess the implications of biofuels expansion in Mozambique. We compare scenarios with different gender employment intensities in producing jatropha for biodiesel.

Optimizing the implementation of biofuels in the Swiss energy and transport sector [PDF]

, 2022
Starting from Swiss available biomass potential, different pathways for producing biofuels in the Swiss territory have been analyzed. Furthermore, also the production of biofuels starting from algae cultivated abroad has been taken into account.

BIOFUELS AND LEAKAGES IN THE FUEL MARKET [PDF]

Leakage in the fuel market differs, depending on whether ethanol production is determined by a tax credit or consumption mandate. Two components of market leakage are distinguished: domestic and international.

Pulse electrodeposition of Ni on Ti substrates for hydrogen evolution across acidic, alkaline, and neutral electrolytes

Discover Electrochemistry
Electrodeposition offers a scalable, low-cost route to nanostructured electrocatalysts, yet the quantitative relationships between deposition parameters, and electrocatalytic function remain poorly established.

ANALYZING TRADE IMPLICATIONS OF U.S. BIOFUELS POLICIES IN A GENERAL EQUILIBRIUM FRAMEWORK [PDF]

As the biofuels are emerging as promising alternative transportation fuels across the world, they also offer huge potential for international trade in biofuels. A number of trade barriers such as import tariffs and domestic support have limited the scope
