TL;DR: The results in this study indicate that fast growing algae are a promising source of feedstock for advanced renewable fuel production via microwave-assisted pyrolysis (MAP).

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of catalysts on product selectivity of microwave-assisted pyrolysis of corn stover and aspen wood were evaluated using GC-MS analysis.

TL;DR: Chen et al. as mentioned in this paper provided an overview of the biological and engineering aspects in the production and processing technologies and recent advances in research and development in the algae to fuels approach, covering biology, selection and genetic modification of algae species and strains, production systems design, culture media and light management, harvest and dewatering, downstream processing, and environment and economic assessment.

TL;DR: Investigation of the applicability of nonthermal plasma (NTP) technology for the pasteurization of almonds found it to be effective on reduction of E. coli on almond evidenced by almost 5-log reduction after 30-sec treatment at 30 kV and 2000 Hz.

TL;DR: The results showed that pH was the key factor affecting formation of fungi–algae pellet, and pH could be controlled by adjusting glucose concentration and fungal spore number added, and the best pelletization happened when adding 20 g/L glucose and approximately 1.2E8/L spores in BG-11 medium.
