Removal of recalcitrant organic compounds from an industrial complex effluent by heterogeneous Fenton-type treatment
(Wiley, 2016-12-30)
Because of their chemical complexity, industrial chemi-mechanical pulping effluents are evaporated and burned, in spite of the high associated cost involved in these processes. The aim of this study was to remove recalcitrant ...
Hydrothermal treatments applied to agro- and forest- industrial waste to produce high added-value compounds
(North Carolina State University. Department of Wood and Paper Science, 2017-01-01)
Agro- and forest-industrial wastes are abundant and low cost sources of carbohydrates and phenolic compounds, which can be converted into biofuels, biomaterials, and high added-value compounds by different pathways in small ...
Key role of anionic trash catching system on the efficiency of lignocellulose nanofibers in industrial recycled slurries
(Springer, 2017-11-29)
The processing of recycled paper into packaging materials is becoming one of the most important activities of paper mills. However, the use of recycled paper as a raw material causes an important increase of dissolved ...
Second-generation bioethanol from industrial wood waste of South American species
(Green Wave Publishing of Canada, 2017-09-01)
There is a global interest in replacing fossil fuels with renewable sources of energy. The present review evaluates the significance of South-American wood industrial wastes for bioethanol production. Four countries have ...
Lignocellulosics as sustainable resources for production of bioplastics : a review
(Elsevier, 2017-09-20)
The bio-based economy requires a sustainable utilization of bioresources for production of a range of products, including pulp, paper, chemicals, biofuel and bioplastics. Currently, various types of bioplastics are produced ...
Caracterización química y morfología de la madera de Moringa oleifera como materia prima potencial para biorrefineríasChemical characterization and morphology of moringa oleifera's wood as potential raw material for biorefineries
(Universidad Nacional de Misiones. Facultad de Ciencias Exactas, Químicas y Naturales. Secretaria de Investigación y Posgrado, 2018-11-14)
La creciente demanda de biomasa forestal ha motivado el cultivo de plantaciones forestales de corta rotación en países desarrollados y en desarrollo.La Moringa oleifera es una especie de rápido crecimiento que se adapta a ...
Kinetic modeling of a heterogeneous Fenton‐type oxidative treatment of complex industrial efuent
(Springer Nature, 2018-09-17)
This work proposes a kinetic model for the reactions involved in the heterogeneous copper-based Fenton-type oxidation of mixed recalcitrant compounds in a real industrial effluent from the alkaline sulfite treatment of ...
Techno‐economic assessment of carboxylic acids, furfural, and pellet production in a pine sawdust biorefinery
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2018-08-19)
Pine sawdust is an important lignocellulosic waste from the primary industrialization of wood, and its valorization using the biorefinery concept could add new value chains to the forest industry. Compared with large‐scale ...
Studies on lignin extraction from rice husk by a soda-ethanol treatment : kinetics, separation, and characterization of products
(Elsevier, 2018-01-01)
The delignification kinetics of lignocellulosic waste is an important tool for the study of the technical-economic viability of biorefinery processes. The aim of this work was to study the kinetic of lignin extraction by ...
Alternatives of small-scale biorefineries for the integrated production of xylitol from sugarcane bagasse
(Scrivener Publishing LLC, 2018-03-01)
Small-scale biorefinery from sugarcane bagasse offers new possibilities to the sugar and ethanol industries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of a small-scale biorefinery for the production of xylitol ...
