Production of volatile fatty acids from food waste and lignocellulosic materials has potential to avoid emissions their production petrochemicals provide valuable feedstocks. Techno-economic life cycle assessments using grass produce through anaerobic digestion have been conducted. Uncertainty sensitivity analysis for both were done enable a robust forecast key-aspects the technology deployment at industrial scale. Results show low environmental impact acid with wastes being most beneficial...
One of the main challenges second generation (2G) ethanol production is high quantities phenolic compounds and furan derivatives generated in pretreatment lignocellulosic biomass, which inhibit enzymatic hydrolysis fermentation steps. Fast monitoring these inhibitory could provide better control pretreatment, hydrolysis, processes by enabling implementation strategic process actions. We investigated feasibility ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy associated with partial least squares...
Controlled-environment agriculture in agro-industrial systems, where carbon dioxide, heat, and other wastes are recovered or recycled, has potential to be an environmentally friendly approach with economic feasibility. However, such approaches need careful exploration ensure that environmental benefits maximised. Techno-economic, life cycle assessment were applied evaluate the synergy of producing crops (tomato hemp) recovering industrial (e.g., heat dioxide) glasshouses robust uncertainty...
Abstract Purpose This research aims to critically assess the suitability of current ISO life cycle assessment standards and practices for challenges decarbonisation through use carbon capture circular economy. Currently, handling wastes, including dioxide, in varies from sector sector. We propose several methodological innovations improve transparency comparability assessments aid transition. Methods Three approaches have been used analyse shortcomings practices: Recent assessed determine...
The overarching purpose of carbon accounting is to reduce emissions meet net-zero targets and minimize the impact climate change. However, plethora methods approaches used means that products systems sometimes cannot easily be compared. mix regional life cycle-based can mean we lack global oversight our impact. In some situations where a approach used, industry/business/regions are incentivized their own/territorial emissions, which an optimal solution not adopted. Countries grid higher...
The production of volatile fatty acids from food waste and lignocellulosic materials has potential to avoid emissions their petrochemicals provide valuable feedstocks. We have conducted techno-economic life cycle assessments using grass produce through anaerobic digestion. considered three main steps: pre-treatment, digestion, purification. Uncertainty sensitivity analysis for both were done enable a robust forecast key-aspects the technology deployment at industrial scale. results show...
