TL;DR: In this paper, the sustainability of algal biomass as a feedstock for bio-fuels, due to differences in data aggregation, life cycle boundaries, technical and life cycle assumptions, environmental metrics considered, and use of experimental, modeled or assumed data, is compared.

TL;DR: In this paper , a carbon-negative fermentation route was proposed to produce the industrially important chemicals acetone and isopropanol from abundant, low-cost waste gas feedstocks, such as industrial emissions and syngas.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a life-cycle assessment to determine the energy input-to-output ratios for each unit operation in the use of these residues for power generation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a model to estimate project-specific energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) in major recovery and extraction processes in the oil sands, namely surface mining and in-situ production.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the potential contribution of recycling methods and alternative sources of nutrients to reduce the synthetic fertilizer requirement for bio-fuel production from microalgae, and showed that the amount of nitrogen required for biofuel production in the gulf region of the United States is not a limitation if recycling methods within the process chain are utilized.
