  2. 1. Production and engineering of a xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase from Populus tremula x tremuloides

    Author : Maria Henriksson; Tuula Teeri; KTH; []
    Keywords : AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase; retaining glycoside hydrolase; glycosynthase; Pichia pastoris; fed-batch fermentation; expanded-bed adsorption; Plant biotechnology; Växtbioteknik;

    Abstract : The aim of this work was to develop a production process for the enzyme xyloglucan endo-transglycosylase from Populus tremula x tremuloides (PttXET16-34). The natural transglycosylating activity of this enzyme has previously been employed in a XET-Technology. READ MORE

  4. 2. Synthesis gas from black liquor : trace components and methanol synthesis

    Author : Caroline Häggström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical Technology; Kemisk teknologi;

    Abstract : The common European Energy and Climate policy states that in 2020 the share of biofuels for inland transports should be 10 %. Such a stipulation calls for a commercially sustainable biofuel production. READ MORE

  5. 3. Turbomachinery in Biofuel Production

    Author : Martin Görling; Mats Westermark; Simon Harvey; Bengt Hylander; KTH; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bio-Methanol; Biomass; Gasification; Humidification; Hybrid Cycle; SNG; Chemical energy engineering; Kemisk energiteknik;

    Abstract : The aim for this study has been to evaluate the integration potential of turbo-machinery into the production processes of biofuels. The focus has been on bio-fuel produced via biomass gasification; mainly methanol and synthetic natural gas. The research has been divided into two parts; gas and steam turbine applications.

  6. 4. Direct conversion of methane-to-methanol in Cu-exchanged small-pore zeolites

    Author : Unni Engedahl; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; NATURAL SCIENCES; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; partial methane oxidation; SSZ-13; density functional theory; catalysis; micro-kinetic modeling; zeolites; CHA; copper;

    Abstract : Fossil fuel consumption continuous to increase worldwide and of all the fossil fuels, natural gas is growing the most. The combustion of natural gas, which mainly contains methane, is more environmentally friendly than oil or coal thanks to its high specific energy. READ MORE

  7. 5. GASIFICATION-BASED BIOREFINERY FOR MECHANICAL PULP MILLS

    Author : Jie He; Engstrand Per; Zhang Wennan; Olof Björkqvist; Dahlquist Erik; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gasification; Mechanical Pulping; Bio-fuels; Power Generation; Biomass Residues; ASPEN Plus;

    Abstract : The modern concept of "biorefinery" is dominantly based on chemical pulp mills to create more value than cellulose pulp fibres, and energy from the dissolved lignins and hemicelluloses. This concept is characterized by the conversion of biomass into various biobased products. READ MORE
