This study characterized the hydro-char by-product from hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of
waste feedstocks at two operating temperatures (250 and 300○ C) and times (5 and 60 …

The lignocellulosic structure of agricultural biomass, which makes it resistant to microbial
attack, is the main obstacle in its anaerobic digestion. However, not all biomasses behave …

Abstract Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster, Ait.) is one of the most important trees in the Iberian
Peninsula forest. Its wood is mainly used in the wood-based panels production and for pulp …

Despite multiple research efforts, the current strategies for exploitation of lignocellulosic
plant matter are still far from optimal, being hampered mostly by the difficulty of degrading …

Industrial paper wastes are an underestimated source of lignocellulosic materials. In this
work cellulose nanostructures (CNS) were produced from this residue by acid hydrolysis …

The ionoSolv pretreatment generates a cellulose pulp by extracting hemicellulose and lignin
using low-cost ionic liquids. In this study, cellulose pulp was obtained from Miscanthus× …

The deteriorating environmental conditions due to increasing emerging recalcitrant
pollutants raised a severe concern for its remediation. In this study, we have reported …

Organic matter (OM) is a vital component for a healthy soil, its lack arise a major problem for
farmers who need to use commercialized fertilizers with high costs. Considering circular …

Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) is a promising technology to convert wet biomass into
carbon-rich materials. Until now, the chemical processes occurring and their influence on …

Natural fibres are regarded as a potential bio-based alternative to traditional fibre material
used in cement-based composites. A well-known complication of natural fibres is their …
