Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is an emerging biofuel crop that serves as host for aphids. To discern the effects of plant age and possible resistance mechanisms, the feeding behavior of greenbugs (Schizaphis graminum Rondani.) and the yellow sugarcane aphid (Sipha flava Forbes.) was monitored on three diverse switchgrasses by the electrical penetration graph (EPG) technique. Callose deposition...... hiện toàn bộ
Vertical Distribution of Corn Stover Dry Mass Grown at Several US LocationsBioEnergy Research - Tập 4 - Trang 11-21 - 2010

Corn (Zea mays L.) stover was identified as a renewable non-food agricultural feedstock for production of liquid fuels, biopower, and other bioproducts, but it is also needed for erosion control, carbon sequestration, and nutrient cycling. To help balance these multiple demands, our objectives were to (1) determine height distribution of corn stover biomass, (2) quantify the percentage of stover t...... hiện toàn bộ
Three-Year Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Responses to Sugarcane Straw ManagementBioEnergy Research - Tập 11 - Trang 249-261 - 2018

Green harvest sugarcane management has increased soil organic C and N stocks over time. However, emerging sugarcane straw removal to meet increasing bioenergy demands has raised concerns about soil C and N depletions. Thus, we conducted a field study in southeast Brazil over nearly three years (1100 days) for assessing soil C and N responses to increasing sugarcane straw removal rates. In order to...... hiện toàn bộ

Biochar is recognized for its potential in mitigating climate change, especially through carbon sequestration and soil improvement. To this end, it is important to use all co-products from pyrolysis in a sustainable and economically viable way. In this study, the conversion of sugarcane bagasse at varying pyrolysis temperatures was investigated using 1H NMR spectroscopy and Chenomx for liquid frac...... hiện toàn bộ
Optimization of Cassava Pulp Pretreatment by Liquid Hot Water for Biomethane ProductionBioEnergy Research - Tập 14 - Trang 1312-1327 - 2021
Suppanut Varongchayakul, Warinthorn Songkasiri, Pawinee Chaiprasert
Cassava pulp (CP) is considered as a major and low-cost agro-industrial solid byproduct of cassava starch processing, where 48% of starch granules was still entrapped in its complex lignocellulosic matrix of cell wall structure with 21% cellulose and 8% hemicellulose. In this study, the liquid hot water (LHW) pretreatment was aimed to disrupt the cell wall structure of CP and solubilized hemicellu...... hiện toàn bộ
Pilot-Scaled Fast-Pyrolysis Conversion of Eucalyptus Wood Fines into Products: Discussion Toward Possible Applications in Biofuels, Materials, and PrecursorsBioEnergy Research - Tập 13 - Trang 411-422 - 2020

Based on a circular bioeconomy strategy, eucalypt wood fines rejected from a Kraft pulp line were used as starting material in a pilot-scaled fast-pyrolysis process. The bio-oil and its coproducts were characterized regarding their physical, chemical, and thermal aspects. We put in perspective their properties to bring forward considerations for applications on biofuels, materials, and precursors....... hiện toàn bộ
Topsoil Thickness Influences Nitrogen Management of SwitchgrassBioEnergy Research - Tập 10 - Trang 465-477 - 2017
Matt A. Yost, Newell R. Kitchen, Kenneth A. Sudduth, Allen L. Thompson, Eric Allphin
Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is an attractive bioenergy crop option for eroded portions of claypan landscapes where grain crop production is marginally profitable. Topsoil thickness above the claypan, or depth to claypan (DTC), can vary widely within fields, and little information exists on its impacts on N management of switchgrass. Therefore, a study was conducted at the University of Misso...... hiện toàn bộ
Cultivation of Microalgae in Media Added of Emergent Pollutants and Effect on Growth, Chemical Composition, and Use of Biomass to Enzymatic HydrolysisBioEnergy Research - Tập 14 - Trang 265-277 - 2020

The objective of this study was to determine the influence of various concentrations of emerging pollutants (EPs) on growth, cell composition, and enzymatic hydrolysis of biomass. The microalgae used were Spirulina platensis LEB-52, Chlorella homosphaera, and Scenedesmus obliquus. The EPs used were paracetamol, diazepam, fluoxetine, acetylsalicylic acid, and caffeine, added to the cultures in conc...... hiện toàn bộ
The Potential of Constructed Wetland Plants for Bioethanol ProductionBioEnergy Research - Tập 13 - Trang 43-49 - 2019

Five plant species from two Chinese constructed wetland (CW) environments were studied for the production of bioethanol using simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF). Fourteen CW plant species were found in the constructed wetlands and four species (Phragmites australis, Fargesia spathacea F., Thalia dealbata, and Juncus effusus L.) containing the highest contents of holocellulose (be...... hiện toàn bộ
