Ultrasonic assisted amaranth stem pretreatment for bio-ethanol production
(ETA-Florence Renewable Energies, 2015)
An investigation was undertaken to determine the effect of ultrasound on enzymatic hydrolysis rate and enhanced bioethanol yields. Compositional analysis of the feedstock reveals that amaranth lignocellulose contains 36.35% ...
Bio-butanol fermentation using clostridium acetobutylicum and clostridium tetanomorphum in modified bioreactor flasks
(ETA-Florence Renewable Energies, 2015)
An alternative new generation biofuel to bio-ethanol has attracted researchers to investigate various approaches for optimization of traditional ABE fermentation to enable bio-butanol to be produced cheaper at an industrial ...
Production of value-added products from biodiesel derived crude glycerol
(ETA-Florence Renewable Energies, 2015)
Crude glycerol, a by-product of biodiesel production which contain impurities such as methanol, triglycerides and catalysts, would represent a huge challenge to the environment if disposed. Thus the best opportunity is to ...
Enhancement of bio-methane production by lignocellulose substrates
(ETA-Florence Renewable Energies, 2015)
In this study, water hyacinth, sweet sorghum bagasse and amaranth stems were used in a pig manure matrix to produce biogas with a high methane content. The anaerobic digestion was monitored over a period of 40 days, after ...
