Kinetic studies of thermal decomposition of sugarcane bagasse and cassava bagasse
Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2016The thermal decomposition of sugarcane bagasse and cassava bagasse was investigated by the use of the non-isothermal thermogravimetric technique. The experiments were performed with the following heating rates: 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 °C min−1. The kinetic parameters of thermal decomposition were estimated by the Flynn–Wall–Ozawa and the Kissinger methods.

Etherification of hemicelluloses from sugarcane bagasse
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2007AbstractConditions for the preparation of etherified hemicelluloses from sugarcane bagasse with 2, 3‐epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (ETA) using sodium hydroxide as a catalyst in aqueous solution were studied comparatively. The extent of the etherification was measured by yield percentage and degree of substitution.

Characterization of sugarcane bagasse by autofluorescence microscopy
Cellulose, 2013The spatial distribution of chemical compounds in sugarcane bagasse is an important issue in its use as a raw material for second generation ethanol production from cellulose hydrolysis. Lignocellulosic materials including whole bagasse, fiber, pith, and respective samples obtained after chemical bleaching were investigated using confocal fluorescence ...

Use of Sugarcane Bagasse for Particleboard Production
Key Engineering Materials, 2014The use of agricultural residues for particleboard manufacturing increases their value-add and help meet the growing demand of raw materials for the panel industry. Accordingly, the aim of this study was to assess the quality of particleboards produced only with sugarcane bagasse or along with Pinus and Eucalyptus wood.

Hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse in subcritical water
The Journal of Supercritical Fluids, 2014Abstract In this work, a subcritical water process was used for the hydrolysis of sugarcane bagasse with the aim of producing fermentable sugars. Hydrolysis kinetics was determined using a semi-batch unit equipped with a 50 mL reactor. Different sample loads (2 and 11 g), flow-rates (11, 22, 33, 44 and 55 mL/min) and temperatures (213, 251 and 290 °C)

Sugarcane bagasse cogeneration in Belize: A review
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2018Abstract Sugarcane is the most important crop for the economy of Belize. Sugar is Belize's largest contributor to the agricultural sector with exports approximating US$70,000,000 for the year 2015. The biomass residue from the sugar production process, bagasse, is used to generate electricity through cogeneration. The single cogeneration plant in the

Optimization of sugarcane bagasse cellulose acetylation
Carbohydrate Polymers, 2007Abstract In this work we performed an optimization process of the acetylation reaction of sugarcane bagasse cellulose. The optimization was carried out varying acetic acid, acetic anhydride and catalyst volume, as well as reaction and activation times.

Conversion of sugarcane bagasse into a resource
2012The purpose of this chapter is to provide the reader, through a review article, with a baseline information about the use of sugarcane waste fiber, known as bagasse, as a raw material resource for various productions. Sugarcane contains 14% fiber that generates huge amounts of wastes in sugar manufacturing.

Biodegradation of sugarcane bagasse by Pleurotus citrinopileatus.
Cellular and molecular biology (Noisy-le-Grand, France), 2013The chemically as well as hot water treated agrowaste sugarcane bagasse was subjected to degradation by Pleurotus citrinopileatus. The fungus degraded lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose, and carbon content of both chemically as well as hot water treated waste and produced in turn the edible and nutritious fruiting body.
