U.S. Billion-ton Update: Biomass Supply for a Bioenergy and Bioproducts Industry
Mark Downing,Laurence Eaton,Robin L. Graham,Matthew Langholtz,Robert D. Perlack,Anthony F Turhollow Jr,Bryce J. Stokes,Craig C. Brandt +7 more
TL;DR: The report, Biomass as feedstock for a Bioenergy and Bioproducts Industry: The Technical Feasibility of a Billion-Ton Annual Supply (generally referred to as the 2005 BTS), was an estimate of “potential” biomass within the contiguous United States based on numerous assumptions about current and future inventory and production capacity, availability, and technology as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell‐wall carbohydrates and their modification as a resource for biofuels
Markus Pauly,Kenneth Keegstra +1 more
TL;DR: The main bottleneck for using wall materials is the recalcitrance of walls to efficient degradation into fermentable sugars as mentioned in this paper, which makes it difficult to use wall materials in the production of biofuel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Designing sorghum as a dedicated bioenergy feedstock
TL;DR: Sorghum is a highly productive, drought-tolerant species with a history of improvement and production of lignocellulose, sugar and starch as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of sweet sorghum for biodiesel production by heterotrophic microalga Chlorella protothecoides
TL;DR: The results indicate that sweet sorghum juice could effectively enhance algal lipid production, and its application may reduce the cost of algae-based biodiesel.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomass yield and changes in chemical composition of sweet sorghum cultivars grown for biofuel.

TL;DR: The effects of each factor of year, harvest time, and genotype on biomass, carbohydrates yield, and CEY are highly significant and the interaction of genotype with year (environment) has significant effects on the total CEY.

A simple and rapid preparation of alditol acetates for monosaccharide analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple and rapid method for the preparation of alditol acetates from monosaccharides is described, which can be performed in a single tube without transfers or evaporations.

Simplified method for the measurement of total non-starch polysaccharides by gas-liquid chromatography of constituent sugars as alditol acetates
Hans N. Englyst,John H. Cummings +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a procedure for the measurement and characterisation of total non-starch polysaccharides in plant foods by gas-liquid chromatography of individual sugars as alditol acetates is described.
Modified procedure to determine acid-insoluble lignin in wood and pulp.
TL;DR: In this paper, a modification of the standard procedure for much smaller sample amounts was developed, which is based on the procedure of Saeman and is used for lignin analysis.

TL;DR: Ferulic acid ethers accounted for 1.1% dry wt of alkali extracted lignin and might explain the high solubility of Gramineae lignins in soda.
