Biorefinery model for the production of biofuels and bioproducts from lignocellulosic biomass

Vela-García N., (Corresponding) Bolonio D., J. Chuck C., García-Martínez M.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
This work studies advanced biofuel and biomaterials production using lignocellulosic biomass from poplar crops. In this sense, lignocellulosic biomass transformation into biojet fuel, bioLPG, green diesel and High-Density Polyethylene (HPDE) was studied through an exhaustive evaluation, including a...Read more

Enrichment of mesophilic syngas-converting consortia for methane production

García S., Muñoz R., (Corresponding) Lebrero R.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
The use of waste biomass as raw material for syngas production has emerged as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to the conventional gasifiable feedstock. In addition, syngas bioconversion into value-added compounds could be an interesting approach for carbon fixation and syngas...Read more

Direct upgrading of biogas produced by anaerobic digestion: preliminary results at laboratory scale

Bonaccorsi L., Fazzino F., Fotia A., Malara A., Pedullà A., (Corresponding) Calabrò P.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
The present study investigated, at laboratory scale, the possibility of achieving biogas upgrading with a single step of treatment, namely without involving any pre- or post-treatment or multiple stage recirculation. In this respect, three commercial molecular sieves (i.e., Honeywell 13X, 4A, and...Read more
