Stéphane Cadoux,Stéphane Cadoux,Fabien Ferchaud,Charlotte Demay,Hubert Boizard,Jean-Marie Machet,Emilie Fourdinier,Matthieu Preudhomme,Brigitte Chabbert,Brigitte Chabbert,Ghislain Gosse,Bruno Mary +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a modified version of the cost/benefit approach proposed by Crutzen et al. (2008) was applied to these "optimized" situations to calculate a posteriori 'optimized' fertilization practices, which would ensure a sustainable production with a nil balance of nutrients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current trends and possibilities for exploitation of Grape pomace as a potential source for value addition.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review on value-added by-products that are used for societal benefits concerning the potential for human health and a sustainable environment, and summarize the existing information/knowledge on several green technologies for the recovery of value added byproducts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potentials of agricultural and agro-industrial crop residues for the displacement of fossil fuels: A Philippine context
TL;DR: In this article, a retrospective review of the available crop residues in the Philippines was presented, and their potentials in displacing fossil fuels like that of coal, gasoline, diesel, and natural gas were estimated and assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrasound-catalyzed tempo-mediated oxidation of native cellulose for the production of nanocellulose: effect of process variables
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used ultrasound in oxidizing native cellulose for the production of nanocellulose, and showed a ca. 10% increase in the yield when compared to the TEMPO-system without sono-catalysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coupled production of single cell oil as biodiesel feedstock, xylitol and xylanase from sugarcane bagasse in a biorefinery concept using fungi from the tropical mangrove wetlands.
TL;DR: This biorefining approach of SCB utilization for co-production of xylitol, xylanase and SCO gains importance in terms of sustainability and eco-friendliness.

Hydrolysis of lignocellulosic materials for ethanol production: a review.
Ye Sun,Jiayang Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation effectively removes glucose, which is an inhibitor to cellulase activity, thus increasing the yield and rate of cellulose hydrolysis, thereby increasing the cost of ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials.

Fast pyrolysis processes for biomass
TL;DR: Fast pyrolysis for production of liquids has developed considerably since the first experiments in the late 1970s as mentioned in this paper, leading to significant advances in process development and a wide range of reactor configurations that have been developed to meet the stringent requirements for high yields of useful liquids, for use as a fuel in boilers, engines and turbines and as a source of chemical commodities.
