Recent advances on biobutanol productionSustainable Chemical Processes - Tập 2 - Trang 1-9 - 2014
Luiz J Visioli, Heveline Enzweiler, Raquel C Kuhn, Marcio Schwaab, Marcio A Mazutti
Recent studies have shown that butanol is a potential gasoline replacement that can also be blended in significant quantities with conventional diesel fuel. However, biotechnological production of butanol has some challenges such as low butanol titer, high cost feedstocks and product inhibition. The present work reviewed the technical and economic feasibility of the main technologies available to ...... hiện toàn bộ
Nano Cu-catalyzed efficient and selective reduction of nitroarenes under combined microwave and ultrasound irradiationSustainable Chemical Processes - Tập 2 - Trang 1-6 - 2014
Huangdi Feng, Yuan Li, Shengji Lin, Erik V Van der Eycken, Gonghua Song
In situ preparation of copper nanoparticles from a copper acetate precursor and its application as an efficient catalyst for the selective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds with hydrazine hydrate under combined microwave and ultrasound irradiation were described in detail. The results reveal the synergetic effect of microwave and ultrasound on the synthesis of copper nanoparticles, and formati...... hiện toàn bộ
Biomolecular assembly strategies to develop potential artificial cellulosomesSustainable Chemical Processes - Tập 2 - Trang 1-5 - 2014
Geisa AL Gonçalves, Yutaro Mori, Noriho Kamiya
Cellulosic biomass is a sustainable source for fuels and value-added chemicals, and is available in large quantities. One of the key challenges in biomass processing is associated with the establishment of an efficient enzymatic degradation of plant cell wall. A multi-enzymatic complex, cellulosome, was identified as a highly efficient biocatalyst for the hydrolysis of cellulosic biomass in nature...... hiện toàn bộ

Microwave assisted chemical pretreatment of Miscanthus under different temperature regimesSustainable Chemical Processes - Tập 3 - Trang 1-13 - 2015
Zongyuan Zhu, Duncan J. Macquarrie, Rachael Simister, Leonardo D. Gomez, Simon J. McQueen-Mason
Miscanthus is a major bioenergy crop in Europe and a potential feedstock for second generation biofuels. The most efficient and realistic method to produce fermentable sugars from lignocellulosic biomass is by enzymatic hydrolysis, assisted by thermo-chemical pretreatment. Recently, microwave technology has drawn growing attention, because of its unique effects and perf...... hiện toàn bộ
The use of combination of zeolites to pursue integrated refined pyrolysis oil from kraft ligninSustainable Chemical Processes - - 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
Tools and techniques for solvent selection: green solvent selection guidesSustainable Chemical Processes - Tập 4 - Trang 1-24 - 2016
Fergal P. Byrne, Saimeng Jin, Giulia Paggiola, Tabitha H. M. Petchey, James H. Clark, Thomas J. Farmer, Andrew J. Hunt, C. Robert McElroy, James Sherwood
Driven by legislation and evolving attitudes towards environmental issues, establishing green solvents for extractions, separations, formulations and reaction chemistry has become an increasingly important area of research. Several general purpose solvent selection guides have now been published with the aim to reduce use of the most hazardous solvents. This review serves the purpose of explaining...... hiện toàn bộ
Ionic liquids as a tool for lignocellulosic biomass fractionationSustainable Chemical Processes - 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
Combi-protein coated microcrystals of lipases for production of biodiesel from oil from spent coffee groundsSustainable Chemical Processes - Tập 1 - Trang 1-9 - 2013
Aditi Banerjee, Veena Singh, Kusum Solanki, Joyeeta Mukherjee, Munishwar Nath Gupta
Replacing chemical catalysts with biocatalysts is a widely recognized goal of white biotechnology. For biocatalytic processes requiring low water containing media, enzymes for example commercial preparations of lipases, show low catalytic efficiencies. Some high activity preparations for addressing this concern have been described. Protein coated microcrystals (PCMC) constitute one such preparatio...... hiện toàn bộ
High yield lactic acid selective oxidation into acetic acid over a Mo-V-Nb mixed oxide catalystSustainable Chemical Processes - Tập 3 - Trang 1-8 - 2015
Samadhan Lomate, Benjamin Katryniok, Franck Dumeignil, Sébastien Paul
In this paper, we report for the first time a one-pot reaction enabling total transformation of lactic acid to acetic acid over a Mo-V-Nb mixed oxide catalyst having an optimal atomic ratio 19:5:1. The mechanism of the reaction consists in two parallel ways leading to acetic acid: (i) oxi-dehydrogenation of lactic acid to pyruvic acid followed by decarboxylation and (ii) decarbonylation of lactic ...... hiện toàn bộ
