Biofuel production methods and compositions
TL;DR: In this article, a method for increasing the level of fermentable carbohydrates in a biofuel crop plant such as alfalfa or switchgrass, by modification of the lignin biosynthetic pathway was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled silencing of 4-coumarate:CoA ligase alters lignocellulose composition without affecting stem growth.
TL;DR: It is suggested that it is possible to alter lignocellulose composition in plants without negative effects on plant growth, and transgenic Arabidopsis plants that contain a gene that confers inducible silencing of both 4CL1 and 4CL2 genes are generated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical syntheses of caffeoyl and 5-OH coniferyl aldehydes and alcohols and determination of lignin O-methyltransferase activities in dicot and monocot species
TL;DR: To investigate the substrate preferences of O-methyltransferases in the monolignol biosynthetic pathways, caffeoyl and 5-hydroxy coniferyl aldehydes were synthesized by a new procedure involving a Wittig reaction with the corresponding hydroxybenzaldehydes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a fast crystallization at high temperatures (200-240 °C) was proposed for high-temperature synthesis of zeolite. But this method requires the use of a large amount of water solvent, which hinders the enhancement of the Zeolite space-time yields.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solvent-free synthesis of zeolite catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, a review describes the solvent-free synthesis of zeolites and the combination of solvent free synthesis and organotemplate free synthesis can open the pathway to a highly sustainable zeolite synthesis protocol in industry.
