Abstract Sugarcane is among the principal agricultural crops cultivated in tropical countries. The annual world production of sugarcane ∼1.6 billion tons, and it generates ∼279 million metric tons (MMT) biomass residues (bagasse leaves). residues, particularly bagasse (SB) leaves (SL) have been explored for both biotechnological non‐biotechnological applications. For last three decades, SB SL use lignocellulosic bioconversion, which offers opportunities economic utilization residual...
Abstract The emergence of lignocellulosic biorefineries (LBRs) over the past few decades has shown tremendous potential for development sustainable renewable resources. Lignocellulosic not only meet energy needs but also mitigate environmental problems by replacing conventional petroleum sources. Round year availability biomass (LCB) with affordable price is a major factor in biorefineries. It consists primarily sugar polymers (cellulose and hemicellulose) lignin, which can be used to...
Heavy usage of gasoline, burgeoning fuel prices, and environmental issues have paved the way for exploration cellulosic ethanol. Cellulosic ethanol production technologies are emerging require continued technological advancements. One most challenging is pretreatment lignocellulosic biomass desired sugars yields after enzymatic hydrolysis. We hypothesized that consecutive dilute sulfuric acid-dilute sodium hydroxide would overcome native recalcitrance sugarcane bagasse (SB) by enhancing...
Abstract Biorefineries can upgrade waste lignocellulosic biomass (LB) into soluble (C 5 and C 6 ) sugars that be fermented second‐generation (2G) ethanol‐based biofuels a range of valuable byproducts derived from lignin. Research advances made in various laboratories worldwide have not been easy to translate large‐scale operations. Here, we performed simple economic analysis cellulosic ethanol production stand‐alone 100ton dry sugarcane bagasse per day process, Brazilian market perspective,...
The excessive consumption of petroleum resources leads to global warming, fast depletion reserves, as well price instability gasoline. Thus, there is a strong need for alternative renewable fuels replace petroleum-derived fuels. striking features an fuel include the low carbon footprints, renewability and affordability at manageable prices. Biodiesel, made from waste oils, animal fats, vegetal totally non-toxic liquid which has gained significant attraction in world. Due technological...
