Abstract On the centennial of higher education in Chemical Engineering in Mexico, it is pertinent to revisit the key stages that have contributed to its consolidation as a vital discipline for the nation's scientific and technological advancement. Although the initial mission of chemical engineering education was primarily oriented toward the training ...

Can Dispersed Biomass Processing Protect the Environment and Cover the Bottom Line for Biofuel? [PDF]
This paper compares environmental and profitability outcomes for a centralized biorefinery for cellulosic ethanol that does all processing versus a biorefinery linked to a decentralized array of local depots that pretreat biomass into concentrated ...

Sustainable hydrogen production can be obtained from hydogen‐rich biomass‐derived organic molecules through Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) reactions. Glycerol and sugars are available in large quantities from industry and can be successfully used as substrates in AD protocols, in the presence of tailored, selective, easily tunable and thermally ...

Catalytic Cleavage of Lignin C–C Bonds and Subsequent Amination: A Valorization Roadmap
By systematically integrating the reaction pathway and mechanisms underlying lignin C–C bond cleavage and the subsequent product amination, this review aims to provide guidance for the rational design of multifunctional catalytic systems capable of coupling bond cleavage and amination reactions.

Biorefineries - Selected Processes
This book presents selected processes that can be applied in contemporary and future biorefinery systems. It discusses the indicators characterizing the level of sustainable development for these systems as well as the methods of segregation and purification of biorefinery products, the use of enzymes, the possibility of obtaining bioplastics, ethyl ...
