Techno-Economic Assessment of a Chopped Feedstock Logistics Supply Chain for Corn Stover
Storing corn stover in wet, anaerobic conditions is an active management approach to reduce the risk of significant aerobic degradation and catastrophic loss due to fire. An estimated 50% of the corn stover available in the U.S. is too wet at the time of

Chamber‐based root exclusion partitions total soil respiration (RT) into autotrophic (RA) and heterotrophic (RH) components in switchgrass and corn systems. Biometric carbon intensity (CI) estimated from RH reveals switchgrass as a net soil C sink (−1.95 Mg CO2‐eq Mg−1 harvested biomass) and corn as a net source (+0.68 Mg CO2‐eq Mg−1).

Sustainability of Corn Stover Harvest for Biomass [PDF]
Off-farm demand for crop residues is expected to grow as bioenergy policies become effective. Demand for residues will provide farmers with an additional source of revenue but it may also trigger losses in soil organic carbon and increases in fertilizer ...

Abstract Kentucky producers have sought to add industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) for grain, fiber, and/or floral material to their cropping systems since hemp's legalization in the 2018 Farm Bill. This study sought to quantify hemp's impact on ecosystem services provisioned by the traditional corn (Zea mays L.)–soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr ...

The Viability of Harvesting Corn Cobs and Stover for Biofuel Production in North Dakota [PDF]
This study examines the impact of stochastic harvest field time, corn cob and stover harvest technologies, increases in farm size, and alternative tillage practices on profit maximizing potential of corn cob and stover collection in North Dakota.

ABSTRACT Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the most important grain legumes and provides a major source of protein, vitamins and minerals worldwide. Despite decades of traditional breeding delivering significant genetic gains in disease resistance and adaptation, seed yield improvement has advanced only incrementally, constrained by the highly ...

The Structure of Lignin of Corn Stover and its Changes Induced by Mild Sodium Hydroxide Treatment
Corn stover is an abundant feedstock in the US that can be used for second generation bioethanol production. However, there is little useful data on structure of the lignin of corn stover.

Production of Terephthalic Acid from Corn Stover Lignin.
Funneling and functionalization of a mixture of lignin-derived monomers into a single high-value chemical is fascinating. Reported herein is a three-step strategy for the production of terephthalic acid (TPA) from lignin-derived monomer mixtures, in ...
