Developing Cellulolytic Organisms for Consolidated Bioprocessing of Lignocellulosics
TL;DR: This chapter assesses the status quo for CBP organismal development either by enabling noncellulolytic organisms to grow on cellulosic substrates, by improving product forming abilities of native cellulose utilizing organisms, or by engineering organisms with improved cellulolytic andproduct forming abilities.

Nickel–Iron/Gadolinium‐Doped Ceria (CGO) Composite Electrocatalyst as a Protective Layer for a Solid‐Oxide Fuel Cell Anode Fed with Biofuels
Massimiliano Lo Faro,S. Trocino,Sabrina Campagna Zignani,Cristina Italiano,Rafael M. Reis,Edson A. Ticianelli,Antonino S. Aricò +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance and reliability of a commercial solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC) with the anode coated by a protective catalytic layer is demonstrated. But the performance of the SOFC was not evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural, morphological, and thermal characterization of kraft lignin and its charcoals obtained at different heating rates
TL;DR: In this paper, the physicochemical characterization of two Kraft lignin samples with different purities and the study of its thermal conversion into charcoal was performed, based on chemical, TGA, DSC, FT-IR, particle sizes, and FEG-SEM analyses.

Green farming systems for the Southeast USA using manure-to-energy conversion platforms
Keri B. Cantrell,Kyoung S. Ro,Ariel A. Szogi,Matias B. Vanotti,Matt C. Smith,Patrick G. Hunt +5 more
TL;DR: In the southeastern USA, livestock operations face issues with both manure management and energy. Both issues can be advanced by implementing holistic solutions to manure treatment that involve resourceful energy management and green farming systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar Decreases Atrazine and Pendimethalin Preemergence Herbicidal Activity
TL;DR: It is suggested that the use of biochar as a soil amendment in cropping system could decrease PRE herbicide efficacy, and mitigating practices such as theUse of higher rates or reliance on POST herbicides and cultivation might be necessary to ensure proper weed control.

Energy production from biomass (Part 1): Overview of biomass.
TL;DR: The potential of a restored landfill site to act as a biomass source, providing fuel to supplement landfill gas-fuelled power stations, is examined, together with a comparison of the economics of power production from purpose-grown biomass versus waste-biomass.
An assessment of thermochemical conversion systems for processing biomass and refuse
A Bridgwater,G D Evans +1 more
TL;DR: A survey of gasification, pyrolysis and liquefaction technologies for biomass and waste has been conducted to identify processes suitable for opportunities in the UK and Denmark as discussed by the authors.
Bioconversion assessment study
TL;DR: The ENERGIE RENOUVELABLE Reference Record created on 2004-09-07, modified on 2016-08-08 as discussed by the authors was created for the BIOMASSE project.
