For each kilogram of food protein wasted, between 15 and 750 kg of CO2 end up in the
atmosphere. With this alarming carbon footprint, food protein waste not only contributes to …

Over the last 50 years, the use of wood adhesives in the manufacturing of wood-based
panel goods has increased the efficiency of wood resources. Wood adhesives are becoming …

To improve the adsorption efficiency, a H 3 PO 4-modified biochar (CFCP) was prepared
using chicken feather and applied to Cd 2+ and Pb 2+ adsorption. The pseudo-second …

Waste chicken feathers are the ideal precursor for the production of low-cost N-enriched
biochar. KOH-modified N-enriched biochar (KNB) containing 15.92 wt% N was successfully …

Keratin is a major structural protein with high sulphur content. It is predominantly found in
chicken feathers, wool, hair, hoof, and nails. Over the years, the accumulation of keratin …

The valorisation of keratinous wastes involves biorefining and recovering the bioresource
materials from the keratinous wastes to produce value-added keratin-based bioproducts …

Biopolymer processing and handling is greatly facilitated by the use of ionic liquids, given
the increased solubility, and in some cases, structural stability imparted to these molecules …

Residual biomass is acknowledged as a key sustainable feedstock for the transition towards
circular and low fossil carbon economies to supply whether energy, chemical, material and …

An updated review of emerging plant proteases with potential biotechnological application is
presented. Plant proteases show comparable or even greater performance than animal or …

In parallel to the rapid growth in economic and social activities, there has been an
undesirable increase in environmental degradation due to the massively produced and …
