Two-Dimensional NMR Evidence for Cleavage of Lignin and Xylan Substituents in Wheat Straw Through Hydrothermal Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis

09-09-2012 | Daniel J. Yelle, Prasad Kaparaju, Christopher G. Hunt, Kolby Hirth, Hoon Kim, John Ralph, Claus Felby, BioEnergy Research, 2012

Solution-state two-dimensional (2D) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy of plant cell walls is a powerful tool for characterizing changes in cell wall chemistry during the hydrothermal pretreatment process of wheat straw for second-generation bioethanol production. One-bond 13C–1H ...

Bioethanol from Macroalgal Biomass: Utilization of Marine Yeast for Production of the Same

06-09-2012 | Yasmin Khambhaty, Devang Upadhyay, Yogesh Kriplani, Nidhi Joshi, Kalpana Mody, M. R. Gandhi, BioEnergy Research, 2012

The present study deals with the first systematic study on the isolation, characterization, and utilization of marine yeast for bioethanol production using seaweed biomass. The ability and efficiency of isolated marine yeast to grow and ferment sugar to ethanol in the presence of 2.5 % to 15 ...

Post-harvest Changes in Sweet Sorghum II: pH, Acidity, Protein, Starch, and Mannitol

31-08-2012 | Sarah E. Lingle, Thomas L. Tew, Hrvoje Rukavina, Deborah L. Boykin, BioEnergy Research, 2012

This experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of four harvesting methods on juice quality and storability in sweet sorghum. Three cultivars (Dale, Theis, and M81-E) were harvested at 90, 115, and 140 days after planting. Stalks were stripped of leaves and topped at the peduncle, then ...

The Effects of Local Biomass Availability and Possibilities for Truck and Train Transportation on the Greenhouse Gas Emissions of a Small-Diameter Energy Wood Supply Chain

17-08-2012 | E. Jäppinen, O. -J. Korpinen, T. Ranta, BioEnergy Research, 2012

The work presents a method of assessing the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of forest-based biomass supply chains on a site-specific level. The method includes biomass availability and transportation network assessments based on geographical information system data, and GHG emission assessment ...

Diffuse Reflectance, Near-Infrared Spectroscopic Estimation of Sugarcane Lignocellulose Components—Effect of Sample Preparation and Calibration Approach

15-08-2012 | Barrie Fong Chong, Deborah E. Purcell, Michael G. O’Shea, BioEnergy Research, 2012

Near-infrared spectroscopic calibrations for sugarcane lignocellulose composition (ash, lignin, and structural carbohydrates) have been developed on a total dry weight and extractives-free dry weight basis. Reference spectra were measured from crude preparations of bagasse and fibrated ...

Detoxification of Lignocellulose Hydrolysates: Biochemical and Metabolic Engineering Toward White Biotechnology

08-08-2012 | Anuj K. Chandel, Silvio Silvério da Silva, Om V. Singh, BioEnergy Research, 2012

Chemical hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass (LB) produces a number of inhibitors in addition to sugars. These inhibitors include lignin-derived phenolics, carbohydrate-derived furans, and weak acids that have shown a marked effect on the productivities of various metabolites and the growth ...

Integrated Strategies to Enhance Cellulolytic Enzyme Production Using an Instrumented Bioreactor for Solid-State Fermentation of Sugarcane Bagasse

04-08-2012 | Ursula Fabiola Rodríguez-Zúñiga, Sonia Couri, Victor Bertucci Neto, Silvio Crestana, Cristiane Sanchez Farinas, BioEnergy Research, 2012

The conversion of agro-industrial residues, such as sugarcane bagasse, into high-value products and renewable energy, within the biorefinery concept, is a potential alternative towards the sustainable management of these resources. This work evaluates the production of cellulolytic enzymes by ...

Biomass production potential of grasslands in the oak savanna region of Minnesota, USA

01-08-2012 | Peter A. Gillitzer, Donald L. Wyse, Craig C. Sheaffer, Steven J. Taff, Clarence C. Lehman, BioEnergy Research, 2012

Biomass harvested from grasslands formerly used for forage production or set aside for conservation has been identified as a potential source of bioenergy feedstocks. Our objective was to characterize yield and chemical composition of biomass harvested from existing grasslands in the oak ...

Compositional and Thermal Evaluation of Lignocellulosic and Poultry Litter Chars via High and Low Temperature Pyrolysis

26-07-2012 | J. M. Novak, K. B. Cantrell, D. W. Watts, BioEnergy Research, 2012

Inorganic elements in biomass feedstocks can influence thermochemical reactions as well as the resultant char’s elemental, compositional, and thermal characteristics. Chars were produced using slow pyrolysis under low (≤400°C) and high (≥500°C) temperature regimes from sugarcane bagasse, ...

Crop Management Impacts Biofuel Quality: Influence of Switchgrass Harvest Time on Yield, Nitrogen and Ash of Fast Pyrolysis Products

18-07-2012 | Danielle M. Wilson, Dustin L. Dalluge, Marjorie Rover, Emily A. Heaton, Robert C. Brown, BioEnergy Research, 2012

Although upgrading bio-oil from fast pyrolysis of biomass is an attractive pathway for biofuel production, nitrogen (N) and mineral matter carried over from the feedstock to the bio-oil represents a serious contaminant in the process. Reducing the N and ash content of biomass feedstocks would ...
