Advancements and Challenges in Second‐ and Third‐Generation Biofuels: A Comparative Analysis of Lignocellulosic and Algal Feedstocks

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced biofuels derived from nonfood biomass are increasingly recognized as strategic components of low‐carbon energy systems, particularly for sectors where direct electrification remains difficult. Second‐generation biofuels from lignocellulosic residues and third‐generation biofuels from algal and aquatic biomass offer complementary ...

Simulating competition in the US bioeconomy to produce hard‐to‐electrify transportation fuels using limited biomass resources

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 20, Issue 4, Page 1895-1910, July/August 2026.
Abstract This study presents a novel bioeconomy optimization framework, BiOpt, designed to address critical questions regarding the strategic use of limited US biomass resources for biofuel production. By integrating detailed techno‐economic analyses, life cycle assessments, and resource assessment data, BiOpt optimizes resource distributions across ...

Hydrodeoxygenation of Black Liquor HTL Oil Model Compounds in Supercritical Water

open access: yesReactions
Black liquor, the side stream from Kraft pulping, is a promising feedstock for the production of renewable fuels via hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL). However, further upgrading of the black liquor HTL oil is required to reduce the oxygen content for fuel

Mechanically Stable Algal Biochar‐Alginate Hydrogels as Bio‐Based Adsorbents for Resource‐Efficient Heavy Metal Removal

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 3, July 2026.
Biochar derived from Cyanidioschyzon merolae via hydrothermal liquefaction was encapsulated in an alginate hydrogel matrix, yielding a biodegradable adsorbent (Bio‐H) for the removal of Cu2+ and Fe3+ from aqueous solution. ABSTRACT Bio‐based materials that valorize waste streams while enabling resource conservation are central to advancing circular and

From Citrus to Cymene: Understanding the Hydrothermal Conversion of Limonene

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
When life gives you limonene… Hydrothermal conversion and pyrolysis of limonene give two distinct sets of products, arising from differing reaction cascades. While p‐cymene dominates in the presence of water, indicative of an isomerisation/aromatisation pathway, pyrolysis favours cracking and loss of carbon affording an m‐xylene rich aromatic mix.
