This makes it an invaluable tool in the field of biomass processing and biofuel production. By efficiently hydrolyzing cellulose and hemicellulose, Driselase can help convert lignocellulosic feedstocks, such as agricultural residues and forestry waste, into fermentable sugars. ...
The Reactor The reactor will be the heart of your continuous pyrolysis plant, where biomass is transformed into biofuels. There are two types of reactors that can be used within this process: the rotary kiln as well as the fluidized bed. ...
If you utilize burnable fuel, made from organic materials, it is likely that this originated from a pyrolysis plant or machine. Pyrolysis references this process where biofuels can be done by making use of goods like plastic, rubber, and organic materials. ...
On our blog, you have learned about different types of biofuel, the process for creating biofuel, and the global benefits of using biomass technology. ...
A: We developed a novel bioprocess for converting waste gases containing carbon dioxide and a reducing gas such as hydrogen or carbon monoxide into biofuels. Our process uses bacteria to convert waste gases into acetic acid — vinegar — which is subsequently converted to oil by an engineered yeast. ...
DOE's Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) has announced the extension of the response deadline for a request for information (RFI) about public and private sector capabilities in pilot scale verification of biofuels and bioproducts processes. The RFI, originally posted on February 12, 2016, with a due date of March 4, 2016, requests information on facilities ...
On May 18, 2015, the American Council On Renewable Energy (ACORE) issued a white paper arguing that "Co-location Requirements under the RFS Impede Advanced Biofuels Development." The paper was sent to EPA. It requests that EPA clarify its definition of feedstock material under the federal Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) so that biofuels producers that ...

In the present study, two strains of green algae named S1 and S2, categorized as the same species of Pseudo-coccomyxa ellipsoidea but showing 99% homology, were cultivated under the same conditions and filtrated with a microfiltration membrane. On the basis of the results of the extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) characteristics of these two green algae and the degree of fouling, the ...
The proposed model, fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (FAHP) is integrated with elimination et and choice translating reality (ELECTRE) to evaluate the optimum blend. Here the FAHP is used to determine the relative weights of the criteria, whereas ELECTRE is used for obtaining the final ranking of alternative blends.Keywords: decision support systems, DSS, fuel blends, diesel ...
The RED target, for 10% of transport fuel to be from renewable sources by 2020, is anticipated to stimulate a major increase in the use of conventional biofuels up to 2020, contributing up to 92% of total predicted biofuel use or 24.3 Mtoe in 2020. ...
Biomass Drying For Bioenergy A DRY-REX low temperature biomass drying system was installed at a Uniforet pulp and paper mill in Quebec to dry sludge produced during the paper making process into a high efficiency biofuel. Prior to the DRY-REX project, the mill was spending millions of dollars to treat and landfill the sludge as waste. The DRY-REX system ...
