Cropping pattern choice with proximity to ethanol production and animal feeding operations

Growing demand for corn due to the expansion of corn ethanol production has increased concerns that corn demand will be met by growing corn more intensively and shifting cropland from cropping...

Conversion of biomass to sugars via ionic liquid hydrolysis: process synthesis and economic evaluation

Replacement of fossil fuels with new sustainable resources is becoming crucial due to depleting petroleum reserves, increasing global energy demand, and arising environmental concerns....

Spatiotemporal cost‐supply curves for bioenergy production in Mozambique

The objective of this study is to assess how bioenergy costs and supply potential in Mozambique develop over time in a spatially explicit way. The land availability for energy crops was explored...

Industry expectations regarding the transition toward a biobased economy

The transition from a fossil‐input‐based economy toward a bio‐based economy is not an easy process. Although policy‐makers in the European Union (EU) advocate this transition, still most companies...

Biomass recalcitrance. Part I: the chemical compositions and physical structures affecting the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose

Lignocellulosic biomass is recalcitrant to biodegradation due to the rigid and compact structure of plant cell wall. The recalcitrance of biomass is mainly constructed by its chemical compositions...

Life cycle assessment of biomethane from offshore‐cultivated seaweed

Algae are a promising source of industrial biomass for the future. In order to assess if aquacultured seaweed (macroalgae) could be considered an environmentally friendly source of biomass for...

Chemicals from biobutanol: technologies and markets

This review provides a technical description of the range of commercial products that can be accessed from n‐butanol, with specific emphasis on n‐butanol derived from renewable sources (biobutanol)....
