Optimisation of pressed pericarp fibre delignification for glucose recovery using response surface methodology
In this study, pressed pericarp fibres (PPFs) were subjected to chemical pretreatment for bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable sugars. The effectiveness and comparison between pretreatments using acid (HCl) and alkaline (NaOH) to reduce the lignin content was studied. Alkali pretreatment showed better lignin removal than acid pretreatment. Subsequent experiments were then ...

Hydrogen Production and Carbon Capture by Gas-Phase Methane Pyrolysis: A Feasibility Study
In order to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas must be replaced by climate-neutral alternatives in the medium and long term. In this regard, hydrogen (H2) is considered as one of the most promising carbon-free energy carriers, since it is already nowadays vastly used in the chemical industry, for instance for refining processes or the production of key ...

Dreyer & Bosse deliver renewable energy CHP project to Sofia in Bulgaria
The Sofia council decided to invest in renewable energy to make use of the many tons of biowaste (vegetative material), 20,000 tons per annum, from the waste removal collections that take place daily in Sofia and surrounding area. To make this possible it was decided to go for wet fermentation where the substrate or raw material ferments and the biogas is collected. After three weeks the ...
