Valorization of Rice Straw for Ethanol Production and Lignin Recovery Using Combined Acid-Alkali Pre-treatment
TL;DR: In this paper, rice straw was sequentially pre-treated with sulphuric acid (3% v/v) and sodium hydroxide (4% w/v), which resulted in the removal of ~90% hemicelluloses and ~55% lignin, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life cycle assessments of bio-based sustainable polylimonene carbonate production processes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the environmental impacts associated with the production of the newly proposed biopolymer polylimonene carbonate, and concluded that future process designs should combine polymer production with the co-generation of energy from waste biomass.
