High performance green barriers based on nanocellulose
- 2014
Sandeep S. Nair, Jiaqing Zhu, Yulin Deng, Arthur J. Ragauskas
Abstract With the increasing environmental concerns such as sustainability and end-of-life disposal challenges, materials derived from renewable resources such as nanocellulose have been strongly advocated as potential replacements for packaging materials. Nanocellulose can be extracted from various plant resources through mechanical and chemical ways. Na...... hiện toàn bộ
Recent developments in maleic acid synthesis from bio-based chemicals
Tập 3 Số 1 - 2015
Robert Wojcieszak, Francesco Santarelli, Sébastien Paul, Franck Dumeignil, Fabrizio Cavani, Renato V. Gonçalves
Experimental and modelling studies on the uncatalysed thermal conversion of inulin to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and levulinic acid
- 2015

The use of combination of zeolites to pursue integrated refined pyrolysis oil from kraft lignin
- 2014
Fang Huang, Haoxi Ben, Shaobo Pan, Yunqiao Pu, Arthur Ragauskas
A mixture of Y and M type zeolites were applied to pyrolyze kraft softwood (SW) lignin with the objective of studying the combination effect of different types of zeolite on pyrolysis. The chemical structures of the subsequent pyrolysis oils were examined. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy including 13C, 31P of phosphitylated bio-oils, Heteronuclear Single-Quantum Correlation (HSQC)-NM...... hiện toàn bộ
An astute synthesis of locked nucleic acid monomers
Tập 3 - Trang 1-6 - 2015
Vivek K Sharma, Pallavi Rungta, Vipin K Maikhuri, Ashok K Prasad
Novel attributes of Locked Nucleic Acid (LNA) makes it preferable over most of the other classes of modified nucleic acid analogues and therefore, it has been extensively explored in different synthetic oligonucleotide based therapeutics. In addition to five oligonucleotides of this class undergoing clinical trials, a healthy pipeline in pre-clinical studies validates the tenacity of LNA. Due to t...... hiện toàn bộ
Thermochemical processes for biofuels production from biomass
Tập 1 - Trang 1-10 - 2013
Nicholas Canabarro, Juliana F Soares, Chayene G Anchieta, Camila S Kelling, Marcio A Mazutti
The contribution of biomass to the world’s energy supply is presently estimated to be around 10% to 14%. The conversion of biomass to biofuels can be achieved primarily via biochemical and thermochemical processes. Recently, the use of thermochemical processes as pyrolysis and gasification has received great attention. The biomass composition and form of process conduction can affect greatly the e...... hiện toàn bộ
Nano-catalysts with magnetic core: sustainable options for greener synthesis
Tập 2 - Trang 1-8 - 2014
Rajender S Varma
Author’s perspective on nano-catalysts with magnetic core is summarized with recent work from his laboratory. Magnetically recyclable nano-catalysts and their use in benign media is an ideal blend for the development of sustainable methodologies in organic synthesis. Water or polyethylene glycol (PEG) provides good medium to perform such chemical reactions with magnetic nano-catalysts, as this com...... hiện toàn bộ
The biochemistry behind biopesticide efficacy
Tập 2 - Trang 1-8 - 2014
Michelle Hubbard, Russell K Hynes, Martin Erlandson, Karen L Bailey
Biopesticides have the potential to play an important role in sustainable, environmentally safe pest control. A diverse range of biopesticides employ chemical modes of action. This review explores three such biopesticides: a fungus used in weed control, beneficial bacteria controlling fungal and bacterial disease and a virus active against insect pests. Through these case studies, we demonstrate t...... hiện toàn bộ
Production of cellulosic ethanol from steam-exploded Eucalyptus urograndis and sugarcane bagasse at high total solids and low enzyme loadings
Tập 4 - Trang 1-9 - 2016
Luana M. Chiarello, Carlos Eduardo A. Ramos, Priscila V. Neves, Luiz P. Ramos
Cellulosic ethanol is one of the most important biotechnological products to mitigate the consumption of fossil fuels and to increase the use of renewable resources for fuels and chemicals. By performing this process at high total solids (TS) and low enzyme loadings (EL), one can achieve significant improvements in the overall cellulosic ethanol production process. In this work, steam-exploded mat...... hiện toàn bộ
Ionic liquids as a tool for lignocellulosic biomass fractionation
Tập 1 - Trang 1-31 - 2013
Andre M da Costa Lopes, Karen G João, Ana Rita C Morais, Ewa Bogel-Łukasik, Rafał Bogel-Łukasik
Lignocellulosic biomass composes a diversity of feedstock raw materials representing an abundant and renewable carbon source. In majority lignocellulose is constituted by carbohydrate macromolecules, namely cellulose and hemicellulose, and by lignin, a polyphenilpropanoid macromolecule. Between these biomacromolecules, there are several covalent and non-covalent interactions defining an intricate,...... hiện toàn bộ
