Novel pretreatment strategies of algal biomass for the production of bioethanol

, Qatar University, QA

Bioethanol is a liquid biofuel that is sustainable and environmentally friendly [19]. However, the production and commercialization of bioethanol is primarily focused on first-generation food crops such as sugarcane, maize and beet, which can lead [...]

Management of citric solid wastes to produce bioethanol

Ottati C., Ares F., Damboriarena A., Lopretti M., LATU, UY

Citrus peel wastes are partly used for cattle feed either fresh or after ensilage or dehydration, but considerable quantity of citrus pulp in the fresh state is lost as a result of the difficulty of [...]

Complete Microbiological Fuel Cell: A Photosynthetic Cathode Coupled to a Fermentative Anode

Powell E.E., Bolster J.C., Hill G.A., Evitts R.W., University of Saskatchewan, CA

A completely biological microbial fuel cell (MFC), using photosynthetic growth at the cathode and yeast fermentation at the anode, has been developed and operated successfully for the first time. The photosynthetic culture, Chlorella vulgaris, was [...]
