Phenols Removal from Hemicelluloses Pre-Hydrolysate by Laccase to Improve Butanol Production
Phenolic compounds are important inhibitors of the microorganisms used in the Acetone-Butanol-Ethanol (ABE) fermentation. The degradation of phenolic compounds in a wood pre-hydrolysate, a potential substrate for the production of ABE, was studied in ...

Influence of butanol addition on the CI engine performance fuelled with treated waste engine oil
Treated waste engine oil can be utilized as compression ignition fuel. An experimental study has been performed to overcome the limitations in fueling treated waste engine oil into diesel engine as fuel, by the addition of butanol, modification of nozzle

A Simplified Method for Butanol-Extractable Iodine and Butanol-Insoluble Iodine
Abstract A simplified method is presented for the determination of butanol-extractable iodine(BEI). The results compare favorably with the original method as described by Man et al. Also available, as part of the procedure for BEI, is a direct chemical determination for butanol-insoluble iodine (Bll) from the same specimen of serum ...

Progress of acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) as biofuel in gasoline and diesel engine: A review
The properties of butanol offer more promising results compared to those of lower chain alcohol such as methanol or ethanol. However, butanol as a biofuel has not yet been commercially produced due to its costly process. Butanol is generally produced via
