This work presents a review of the main deterministic mixed‐integer nonlinear programming
(MINLP) solution methods for problems with convex and nonconvex functions. An overview …

Biomass can become the source for chemicals towards a sustainable production system.
However, the challenges it presents such as the variety of species, their widespread and …

In this work, we developed a framework for CO2 capture and utilization for energy products
(CCU4E) and examined techno-economic and environmental performance in different …

Solar energy driven processes with H2O and CO2 as basic feedstocks can produce “solar
fuels” that could substitute their fossil based counterparts. This article summarizes the main …

Carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) provides an appealing framework to turn carbon
emissions into valuable fuels and chemicals. However, given the vast energy required to …

The production of bio-succinic acid (bio-SA) from biomass has the potential to partially
replace some petrochemicals, reduce climate change by capturing carbon dioxide, and …

This article presents results from experimental studies and techno-economic analysis of a
catalytic process for the conversion of whole biomass into drop-in aviation fuels with …

The benefits of hydrogen as a clean and efficient fuel can be realized fully only when
hydrogen is produced from renewable energy sources (RES). In this study, a new …

Various countries and communities are defining strategic energy plans driven by concerns
for climate change and security of energy supply. Energy models can support this decision …

A techno-economic analysis was conducted for a simplified lignocellulosic ethanol
production process developed and proven by the University of Florida at laboratory, pilot …
