  1. 16. Biochemical conversion of biomass : hydrothermal pretreatment, by-product formation, conditioning, enzymatic saccharification, and fermentability

    Författare :Dimitrios Ilanidis; Leif J. Jönsson; Carlos Martin; Björn Alriksson; Eulogio Castro; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lignocellulosic biomass; hydrothermal pretreatment; enzymatic digestibility; ethanolic fermentation; microbial inhibitors; conditioning;

    Sammanfattning : Lignocellulosic residues have great potential as feedstocks for production of bio-based chemicals and fuels. One of the main routes is biochemical conversion, which typically includes pretreatment, enzymatic saccharification, microbial fermentation of sugars, and valorization of hydrolysis lignin. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Mankind has to provide a sustainable alternative to its energy related problems. Bioenergy is considered as one of the potential renewable energy resources and as a result bioenergy market is also expected to grow dramatically in future. However, logistic issues are of serious concern while considering biomass as an alternative to fossil fuel. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Biogas from agricultural waste : Turning unavailable residues into accessible resources

    Författare :Mirjam Victorin; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biogas; Straw; Manure; Pretreatment; Process design;

    Sammanfattning : Moving from a fossil dependent to a fossil free economy requires increased energy production from renewable resources. This thesis discusses the utilization of agricultural waste streams, such as straw and manure, for biogas production. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Implications of feedstock diversity on forest-based ethanol production

    Författare :Balazs Franko; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ethanol; Lignocellulose; Softwood; Spruce; Bark; Forest residues; Steam pretreatment; Enzymatic hydrolysis;

    Sammanfattning : The utilization of lignocellulosic biomass to produce biofuels, such as bioethanol, has the potential to provide a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, and thus mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector.Forest biomass is expected to be a significant source of such biomass, as it can serve as an abundant and sustainable feedstock for bioethanol production.
