  2. 16. Salix as a biorefinery feedstock : an inquiry into factors affecting conversion performance

    Author : Jonas Ohlsson; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the world’s greatest natural resources, with po-tential for replacing a considerable portion of current fossil resource use. Although lignocellulosic biomass can be readily utilized for generating heat and power via combustion, its conversion into storable fuels such as ethanol and biogas presents a greater challenge.

  4. 17. Process integration studies on Kraft pulp-mill-based biorefineries producing ethanol

    Author : Rickard Fornell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kraft pulp mill; Ethanol; Energy; Process integration; Biorefinery;

    Abstract : Large scale, sustainable production of biofuels will require commercialization ofprocesses using lignocellulosic feedstocks. These processes are still notcompetitive with existing pathways, however. The competitiveness oflignocellulosic biofuel production plants could potentially be improved if theywere integrated with already existing facilities. READ MORE

  5. 18. Improving the performance of combined heat and power plants through integration with cellulosic ethanol production

    Author : Fredrik Starfelt; Yan Jinyue; Eva Thorin; Simon Harvey; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : Combined heat and power; Polygeneration; biofuel; bioenergy; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

    Abstract : Today’s biomass-fired combined heat and power (CHP) plants have surplus heat production capacity during warmer times of the year. In order to allow them to increase their electricity production, it is essential to find a use for the surplus heat. READ MORE

  6. 19. Production of L-arginine by genetically modified Escherichia coli

    Author : Mireille Ginesy; Björn Alriksson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biokemisk processteknik; Biochemical Process Engineering;

    Abstract : In the recent years, the demand for environmental friendly produced L-arginine has risen with the increasing number of applications for this amino acid in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, animal feed and fertilizers. Members of the Corynebacteriaceae family are usually used for microbial L-arginine production. READ MORE
