Journal ArticleDOI
Utilisation of poultry litter as an energy feedstock.
Deirdre Lynch,Anne Marie Henihan,Barry Bowen,Declan Lynch,Kevin McDonnell,Witold Kwapinski,James J. Leahy +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined poultry litter (PL) as a resource in fuel quality terms and illustrates how the small scale application of fluidized bed technology solves both energy and waste problems, while producing a nutrient rich ash.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microwave-induced torrefaction of rice husk and sugarcane residues
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used microwave irradiation to induce torrefaction of rice husk and sugarcane residues by varying different parameters, including microwave power level, processing time, water content, and particle size of biomass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microalgae biofuel potentials (Review)
Younes Ghasemi,Sara Rasoul-Amini,A. T. Naseri,Nima Montazeri-Najafabady,Mohammad Ali Mobasher,Fatemeh Dabbagh +5 more
TL;DR: It is worthwhile to say that algal biofuel production is thought to help stabilize the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and decrease global warming impacts.
Journal ArticleDOI
A critical comparison of pyrolysis of cellulose, lignin, and pine sawdust using an induction heating reactor
TL;DR: In this paper, fast pyrolysis of pinewood sawdust and two major components, namely lignin and cellulose, was carried out using a laboratory scale induction-heating reactor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial strategies for limiting bacterial contaminants in fuel bioethanol fermentations
TL;DR: In this paper, a review examines the contamination problems, various intervention methods, emergence of antibiotic resistance in contaminant bacteria, and potential alternative options to elucidate antimicrobial products from various natural sources.

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.
