4. Process development for combined pentose and hexose fermentation
Abstract : Second-generation ethanol from lignocellulose is a sustainable alternative that can partially replace fossil fuels. To be competitive with first generation ethanol from sugar and starch crops and fossil fuels, the conversion efficiency and ethanol yields of second-generation ethanol conversion processes must be improved.

5. Sustainable Energy Conversion from Biomass Waste Combustion
Abstract : Various biomass-type conversions into sustainable heat and power, from dedicated crops to solid biomass waste via the combustion process, are at the center of scientific and industrial focus today. However, biomass combustion contribution to global particulate matter (PM) emission has become one of the biggest challenges that remain in the development of sustainable biomass combustion systems.
