Comparative field‐scale assessment of TLUD and Kon‐Tiki biochar systems: agronomic performance and net CO2e‐based techno‐economics

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐harvest agricultural residues in Latin America are commonly underutilized, leading to greenhouse gas emissions and lost opportunities for bio‐based value creation. This study tests the hypothesis that decentralized, farmer‐scale pyrolysis technologies can deliver comparable agronomic benefits while exhibiting distinct techno‐economic and ...

Enzymatic synthesis of acylglycerides from agroindustrial residues: process design and simplified techno‐economic assessment

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This study developed an enzymatic process to add value to palm oil fatty acid distillate (PFAD) and glycerol, resulting in the production of monoacylglycerides (MAG) and diacylglycerides (DAG). The biocatalyst loading (Novozym 435) and molar ratio of reagents were evaluated to obtain a suitable reaction condition in terms of space–time yield ...

Some Effects of Photoperiod and Cold Storage on Oviposition of the Cereal Leaf Beetle Oulema Melanopus (Coleptera: Chrysomelidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An expanded program of research on the cereal leaf beetle, Oulema melanopus (L.), in various north-central states has made it necessary to develop methods of rearing all stages of the beetle for laboratory use. Because the insect survives diapause in the
