Recent Trends in the Pretreatment of Lignocellulosic Biomass for Value-Added Products

Julie Baruah, B.K. Nath, Ritika Sharma et al. · 18 Dec 2018

Lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) is the most abundantly available bioresource amounting to about a global yield of up to 1.3 billion tons per year. The hydrolysis of LCB results in the release of various reducing sugars which are highly valued in the production of biofuels such as bioethanol and biogas, various organic acids, phenols, and aldehydes.…

Sustainable Energy Transition for Renewable and Low Carbon Grid Electricity Generation and Supply

Moses Jeremiah Barasa Kabeyi, Oludolapo Akanni Olanrewaju · 24 Mar 2022

The greatest sustainability challenge facing humanity today is the greenhouse gas emissions and the global climate change with fossil fuels led by coal, natural gas and oil contributing 61.3% of global electricity generation in the year 2020. The cumulative effect of the Stockholm, Rio, and Johannesburg conferences identified sustainable energy development (SED) as a very…

The Sabatier Principle in Electrocatalysis: Basics, Limitations, and Extensions

Hideshi Ooka, Jun Huang, Kai S. Exner · 4 May 2021

The Sabatier principle, which states that the binding energy between the catalyst and the reactant should be neither too strong nor too weak, has been widely used as the key criterion in designing and screening electrocatalytic materials necessary to promote the sustainability of our society. The widespread success of density functional theory (DFT) has made…

Sustainable Ammonia Production Processes

Seyedehhoma Ghavam, Maria Vahdati, Grant Wilson et al. · 29 Mar 2021

Due to the important role of ammonia as a fertilizer in the agricultural industry and its promising prospects as an energy carrier, many studies have recently attempted to find the most environmentally benign, energy efficient, and economically viable production process for ammonia synthesis. The most commonly utilized ammonia production method is the Haber-Bosch process. The…

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Plastic Waste: Moving Toward Pyrolysis Based Biorefineries

R. Miandad, Mohammad Rehan, M.A. Barakat et al. · 19 Mar 2019

Pyrolysis based biorefineries have great potential to convert wastes such as plastic and biomass waste into energy and other valuable products to achieve maximum economic and environmental benefits. In this study, the catalytic pyrolysis of different types of plastics waste (PS, PE, PP, and PET) as single or mixed in different ratios in the presence…
