Heterogeneous catalytic wet air oxidation of refractory organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters: a review.

TL;DR: The present review is concerned about the literatures published in this regard and discussions are made on the reaction mechanisms and kinetics proposed for heterogeneous CWAO and also on the typical catalyst deactivations in heterogeneousCWAO, i.e. carbonaceous deposits and metal leaching.

Commercializing lignocellulosic bioethanol: technology bottlenecks and possible remedies

TL;DR: In this paper, a review sheds light on some of the practical approaches that can be adopted to make the production of lignocellulosic bioethanol economically attractive, such as the use of cheaper substrates, cost-effective pre-treatment techniques, over-producing and recombinant strains for maximized ethanol tolerance and yields, improved recovery processes, efficient bioprocess integration, economic exploitation of side products, and energy and waste minimization.
