Brassica carinata as an alternative oil crop for the production of biodiesel in Italy: agronomic evaluation, fuel production by transesterification and characterization
Massimo Cardone,Marco Mazzoncini,Stefano Menini,Vittorio Rocco,Adolfo Senatore,Maurizia Seggiani,Sandra Vitolo +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the use of Brassica carinata oil for biodiesel production was investigated, and the results showed that B. carsinata adapted better and was more productive both in adverse conditions (clay-and sandy-type soils and in semi-arid temperate climate) and under low cropping system when compared with B. napus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brassica carinata as an alternative oil crop for the production of biodiesel in Italy: engine performance and regulated and unregulated exhaust emissions.
Massimo Cardone,Maria Vittoria Prati,Vittorio Rocco,Maurizia Seggiani,and Adolfo Senatore,Sandra Vitolo +5 more
TL;DR: The analysis and speciation of the soluble organic fraction of biodiesel particulate suggest that the carcinogenic potential of the biodiesel emissions is probably lower than that of petroleum diesel.

Biochar characteristics and early applications in anaerobic digestion-a review
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review biochar characteristics and study early applications so far demonstrated and carried out, for the use of biochar in the anaerobic digestion processes, by acting both as support for bacteria colonies, conductor for electron transfer among species, sorbent for indirect inhibitors, and reactant in biochars labile carbon methanization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spent coffee enhanced biomethane potential via an integrated hydrothermal carbonization-anaerobic digestion process.
Fábio Codignole Luz,Maurizio Volpe,Luca Fiori,Alessandro Manni,Stefano Cordiner,Vincenzo Mulone,Vittorio Rocco +6 more
TL;DR: This study reports the implications of using spent coffee hydrochar as substrate for anaerobic digestion (AD) processes by investigating their biomethane potential in AD process inoculated with cow manure.
