Renewable Petrochemicals From Biomass by Catalytic Fast Pyrolysis

Nov 9, 2010

George W. Huber

Lignocellulosic biomass has tremendous potential as a feedstock to make renewable fuels and petrochemicals from biomass. The current impediment to the utilization of our biomass resources is that most processes to convert biomass are not currently economical because of long residence times, the...

Desensitizing near-Infrared Calibration Models for Physical Interferences in Tablets During Formulation/Process Development

Nov 9, 2010

Benoit Igne

During formulation/process developments, experimental designs are often used to minimize the number of experiments and maximize the necessary information on the chemical and physical stability of the drug, the flow properties, the process parameters, and the process monitoring tools, etc. As a...

Sustainably Produced Sugars From Biomass: The Key to Commercialization

Nov 9, 2010

Sarah A., Teter

Novozymes has launched the first commercially viable product for conversion of complex biomass to fermentable sugars. Continued enzyme improvement and integration of key process steps are the driving force enabling biorefineries to commercialize production of fuels and chemicals. On the enzyme...

Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) and CuIn(SeS)2 (CISS) Nanocrystals and Their Use as Printable Photovoltaic Media and Medical Imaging Contrast Agents

Nov 9, 2010

Dariya K. Reid

We have developed the colloidal synthesis of I-III-VI2 semiconductor nanocrystals of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) and CuIn(SeS)2 (CISS). These nanocrystals can be spray-deposited into photovoltaic devices (PVs) with power conversion efficiencies of up to 3% without the use of high temperature annealing...

Quality-by-Design (QbD): Integration of Design of Experiments (DOE) and Real-Time PAT Monitoring for Pharmaceutical Powder Blending Process Evaluation

Nov 9, 2010

Huiquan Wu

Although pharmaceutical powder blending process as an important unit operation has received significant attention, our understanding to some of the critical issues such as blending homogeneity assessment and blending kinetics evaluation is limited. As highlighted in the FDA's PAT Guidance,...

Probabilistic Integrative Modeling of Genome-Scale Metabolic and Regulatory Networks in Escherichia Coli and Mycobacterium Tuberculosis

Nov 9, 2010

Sriram Chandrasekaran

Systems biology seeks to understand the cell by studying interactions between its various components and the properties that emerge from these interaction networks. The integration of diverse network types has several important applications including diagnosing metabolic disorders and discovering...

Photocatalytic Activity of TiO2 and TiO2-xCxNy Thin Films From Polymer Assisted Deposition

Nov 9, 2010

Stacy Baber

Since the 1972 discovery of Fujishima and Honda detecting the occurrence of water splitting on TiO2 electrodes, titanium dioxide's use as a photocatalyst has provoked a broad range of research studies and applications. Applications like air and water-purifying, deodorizing, anti-bacterial use and...

The Implications of Bioenergy Derived From Forests for Net Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Nov 9, 2010

Werner A. Kurz

Greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting systems consider bioenergy from forests as carbon neutral because, under international greenhouse gas accounting rules, the carbon contained in wood is deemed emitted to the atmosphere at the time of transfer out of the forest ecosystem. This accounting...

Risk Based Roadmap for the Approval of Biosimilar Biologics

Nov 9, 2010

Henry Y. Wang

The development of biologics has grown significantly in recent years, due in part to the profitability for innovator companies, which currently enjoy exclusivity in the absence of “generic” biologics. In the U.S. There is currently no guideline in place for the approval of “biosimilar” biologics...
