Full assessment of Sida (Sida hermaphrodita) biomass as a solid fuel

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 12, Issue 8, Page 618-635, August 2020., 2020
The perennial plant Sida hermaphrodita (Sida) has high potential as an alternative biomass plant for energy purposes. We tested different density cultivation scenarios of Sida to evaluate best growing conditions, cost–benefit ratios, and biomass yield, over a 3 year period under agricultural conditions.

Application of Hydrodynamic Cavitation for Improving Methane Fermentation of Sida hermaphrodita Silage

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Hydrodynamic cavitation was recently applied as a biomass pretreatment method. Most of the studies which used hydrodynamic cavitation were applied to pretreated sugarcane bagasse or reed.

Converting an Established Sida hermaphrodita Field into Arable Farming

open access: yesAgronomy
The long-term performance of perennial energy crops and their elimination is important for long-term planning and use of agricultural land. In this study, the elimination of a six-year-old Sida hermaphrodita (hereafter referred to as Sida) stock for ...
