Abstract BACKGROUND Brewers' spent grain (BSG) is an abundant lignocellulosic byproduct of the brewing industry with strong potential as a renewable substrate for biotechnological production of lactic acid (LA). This study evaluated integrated pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, and fermentation strategies to enable efficient production of optically ...

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Electrical Breakdown Analysis of Emerging Oil–Paper Insulation Systems
ABSTRACT This investigation addresses the effect of particulate additives on the electrical breakdown strength of the oil impregnated insulation paper system. The morphological complexity is addressed by converting data from scanning electron microscope images to a data set suitable for numerical simulation analysis. Then, by using the conventional oil‐

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Home‐Field Advantage (HFA) theory—positing that litter decomposes faster at its site of origin—allows us to disentangle the respective influences of litter quality, soil biota composition, and microclimate on shifts in litter decomposition following land use conversion.

Bioresorbable Scaffolds for Coronary Arteries: Where Do We Stand Today?
Bioresorbable coronary scaffolds are moving from thick strut pitfalls to thinner, stronger, healing‐oriented designs. Integrating advances in materials, guided implantation with preparation, size, and postdilation steps, and resorption aligned to healing, we synthesize clinical evidence and chart a roadmap toward intelligent, transient platforms ...

Lignocellulose Biocomposites– A Comparison of Wood Fibers and Microfibrillated Lignocellulose
All-lignocellulose composites, meaning densified fiber or fibril materials without added binder, show interesting mechanical properties and can be eco-friendly. Composites based on hot-pressed microfibrillated lignocellulose (MFLC) and lignocellulosic wood fiber (WF) reinforcements are compared with respect to processing, structure, mechanical ...
