Biohydrogen is a green energy carrier with the potential to reduce our dependency on fossil
fuels. The production of biohydrogen from lignocellulosic materials may be low cost, but …

A critical factor which controls the socio-economic development of any nation is “energy”.
With depleting fossil fuels, there is a shift in focus to lignocellulosic biorefinery. The review …

Using choline chloride (ChCl) as hydrogen-bonded-acceptor (HBA) and oxalic acid (OA) as
hydrogen-bonded-donor (HBD), deep eutectic solvents (DESs) with different HBD-to-HBA …

The biorefinery concept is attracting scientific and policy attention as a promising option for
enhancing the benefits of agri-food biomass along with a reduction of the environmental …

With the rapid depletion of fossil energy and increasingly severe environmental pollution,
the development of biomass resources for biorefineries has become a new research focus …

The main purpose of this work was the development of a new citric acid assisted
hydrothermal pretreatment of cocoa pod husks (CPH), which has not yet been exploited for …

A microwave assisted hydrothermal pretreatment technology has been developed to recover
fermentable sugars from brewer's spent grain. Microwave hydrothermal pretreatment is …

Furfural has been identified as a valuable biobased platform chemical that can be further
converted into bioenergy and biochemicals. Furfural is derived from lignocellulosic biomass …

The complete valorisation of sugar beet pulp (SBP) through pectooligosaccharides (POS)
extraction and biobutanol production was studied. A central composite experimental design …

The interest in the use of non-noble metal catalysis is quite relevant to biomass processing
due to costs, environmental concerns and the substantial scale of these operations. The aim …
