Application of Hydrodynamic Cavitation for Improving Methane Fermentation of Sida hermaphrodita Silage [PDF]

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.

Effect of the Aqueous Quercetin Solution on the Physiological Properties of Virginia Mallow (<i>Ripariosida hermaphrodita</i>) Grown Under Salt Stress Conditions. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
The current increase in energy demand, along with the deepening climate crisis, has led to the need for alternative energy sources. One of these is the cultivation of energy crops. In turn, issues related to the deepening problem of soil salinization are an important aspect of environmental protection on a global scale.

Quantitative Low‐Field 19F Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Analysis of Carbonyl Groups in Pyrolysis Oils

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 16, Issue 17, September 8, 2023., 2023
Simpler, cheaper, accurate: Low‐field, or benchtop, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometers prove capable of quantitative analysis of pyrolysis oils from a range of lignocellulosic feedstocks. The NMR estimates of total carbonyl content compare favorably with titrations while the acquired spectra allow for the quantification of carbonyl groups ...

Pest categorisation of Hoplolaimus galeatus

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of Hoplolaimus galeatus (Nematoda: Hoplolaimidae) for the EU. H. galeatus belongs to the order Rhabditida, subfamily Hoplolaiminae. This nematode is not reported from the EU and is not included in the EU Commission Implementing Regulation 2019/2072.

Large Ensemble Diagnostic Evaluation of Hydrologic Parameter Uncertainty in the Community Land Model Version 5 (CLM5)

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Land surface models such as the Community Land Model version 5 (CLM5) seek to enhance understanding of terrestrial hydrology and aid in the evaluation of anthropogenic and climate change impacts. However, the effects of parametric uncertainty on CLM5 hydrologic predictions across regions, timescales, and flow regimes have yet to be explored in
