Journal ArticleDOI

Biomass pretreatment: fundamentals toward application

TL;DR: A survey of biomass pret treatment technologies with emphasis on concepts, mechanism of action and practicability, and the potential for industrial applications of different pretreatment technologies are the highlights of this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biohydrogen production: prospects and limitations to practical application

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the hydrogen production rates of various bio-hydrogen systems by first standardizing the units of hydrogen production and then calculating the size of biohydrogen system that would be required to power proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells of various sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oleaginous yeasts for biodiesel: current and future trends in biology and production.

TL;DR: This review examines aspects of oleaginous yeasts not covered in depth in other recent reviews, and proposes standardized terms for units that describe yeast cell mass and lipid production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Challenges for renewable hydrogen production from biomass

TL;DR: The increasing demand for H 2 for heavy oil upgrading, desulfurization and upgrading of conventional petroleum, and for production of ammonium, in addition to the projected demand for h 2 as a transportation fuel and portable power, will require H 2 production on a massive scale as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrogen production by Clostridium thermocellum 27405 from cellulosic biomass substrates

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated hydrogen (H2) and endproduct synthesis by Clostridium thermocellum in batch cultures using cellulosic sources (α -cellulose, shredded filter paper, and delignified wood fibers (DLWs)) and cellobiose.
