Future Fuels and Chemicals: Grand Challenges and Opportunities

Apr 2, 2012
To insure a Sustainable Future, CO 2 emissions must be reduced despite strong future growth in demand. “Easy oil” from conventional production will be less abundant, though coal and natural gas, as well as unconventional hydrocarbon reserves will remain in strong supply for decades to come. Carbon...

Comparison of Chemical and Biological Delignification of Cardboard

Oct 18, 2011
Estefania Isaza
Some processes aimed to biofuels production, use lignocellulosic wastes as feedstocks for fermentative conversion. If this is the case, pretreatment is required to make these resources fully digestible. Among a wide range of pretreatment options, this study focuses and compares oxidative-alkaline...

Pyrolytic Pathways to Advanced Biofuels

Oct 18, 2011
R. C. Brown
Pyrolysis is the thermal conversion of carbonaceous materials in the absence of molecular oxygen to liquids, solids and gases. In the most general sense, pyrolysis can occur in an inert or reducing atmosphere or within a solvent (including water); it can occur at atmospheric or elevated pressure;...
