Emulsification of Bio-Oil and Diesel

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
With a rich biomass resource from palm oil industry, Malaysia has high potential in developing the biofuel industry. Fast pyrolysis of biomass provides bio-oil, which has a wide range of projected applications that are comparable to that of the crude oil. Storage and processing of lignocellulosic bio-oil are not economically successful yet. Bio-oil has

Technobiological Pathways for High‐CO₂ Capture Using Micro‐/Macroalgae: Genetic Engineering, Process Automation, and Value‐Added Bioproducts

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have emerged as one of the most critical drivers of climate change; this is primarily due to high concentrations and long atmospheric life of carbon dioxide (CO2). For a significant amount of time, various biological processes such as microalgal cultivation, cyanobacterial systems, photosynthetic microorganisms ...

Chlorella vulgaris biorefineries: sustainable biofuels and high‐value carbon capture

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Global reliance on fossil fuels has created urgent economic and environmental challenges, yet large‐scale use of algal biomass remains limited by production costs. Industrial scaling is constrained by inefficient harvesting and the technical challenges of processing recalcitrant cell walls.

Socioenvironmental implications of Jatropha curcas cultivation for biodiesel supply in postmining communities

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The long‐term viability of Jatropha curcas as a biodiesel feedstock has been widely debated. Many early initiatives failed to deliver consistent economic returns despite promising environmental attributes. This study re‐evaluated J. curcas‐based systems within an integrated environmental–economic framework, focusing on their potential role in ...
