Advances in second‐generation biofuel production from rice straw and barley straw

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This review critically examines recent advances in the use of rice straw and barley straw as lignocellulosic feedstocks for second‐generation biofuel production. A comprehensive analysis of their chemical composition, including cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and ash content, reveals how these intrinsic properties affect the efficiency of ...

Influence of renewable energy trends on fossil fuel refining operations

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how renewable energy indicators such as biofuel prices, biofuel integration, electrification, and carbon allowance prices relate to refined fuel production in Portugal’s refining sector. This is set against the backdrop of the sector’s decarbonization efforts and the economic pressures to meet European Union climate targets.

Volumetric mass transfer and dilution rate as key parameters for sustainable industrial syngas fermentation to isopropyl alcohol: modeling and parametric assessment

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Synthesis gas fermentation is a promising route for the valorization of steel mill off‐gas and for replacing conventional fossil‐based isopropyl alcohol (IPA) production. A recent 120 L pilot‐scale study reported 85% gas conversion at 90% product selectivity and claimed a negative global warming potential (GWP) without detailed process design.

Early‐stage health technology assessment of a curative gene therapy for multiple sclerosis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with significant early morbidity, reduced life expectancy and substantial healthcare and societal costs. The primary objective of this study is to assess the early cost‐effectiveness potential of a novel gene therapy, IMMUTOL, for MS compared with current high‐efficacy treatment sequences.

Impact of extended insurance coverage on survival outcomes among patients with metastatic colorectal cancer in Taiwan

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Predetermined treatment duration limits (PTDLs) are often used by Taiwan's National Health Insurance Administration to contain healthcare costs, but they may compromise patient outcomes. Therefore, we studied Taiwan's 2017 extension of the bevacizumab PTDL from 24 to 36 weeks in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) to evaluate whether prolonged ...

‘Let's talk about the weather’: The activist curriculum and global climate change education

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Activist movements have garnered significant global attention on a range of sustainability issues, often involving collectives of citizens coming together. Invoked is the idea of citizens informed to act, emerging not from a common‐sense understanding of everyday life, but rather from a deep political understanding of the world—one that is ...
