The development of biofuels has been considered as an important countermeasure to abate
anthropogenic CO 2 emissions, suppress deteriorated atmospheric greenhouse effect, and …

Alongside the development of pyrolysis processes aimed at converting solid biomass into
upgraded biofuels and biochemicals, interest has been growing in the analysis of the …

Biomass fast pyrolysis is potentially one of the cheapest routes toward renewable liquid
fuels. Its commercialization, however, poses a multi-scale challenge, which starts with the …

Lignin, an aromatic constituent of woody biomass, is a potential renewable aromatic
feedstock for a sustainable future carbon economy. Pyrolysis-based technologies, such as …

Biomass is increasingly perceived as a renewable resource rather than as an organic solid
waste today, as it can be converted to various chemicals, biofuels, and solid biochar using …

The conversion of biomass by thermochemical means is very promising for the substitution
of fossil materials in many energy applications. Given the complexity of biomass the main …

In this work about pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass, the individual reaction mechanisms of
cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin are initially described. The recent advances in the …

Metal oxide-biochar composites have been used for removing pollutants from aqueous
systems. In this work, optimized MgO-impregnated porous biochar was prepared using an …

Increasing energy demand, especially in the transportation sector, and soaring CO2
emissions necessitate the exploitation of renewable sources of energy. Despite the large …

The increasing demand for renewable chemicals and fuels requires the exploitation of
alternative feedstock to replace petroleum-derived chemicals and fuels. Lignocellulosic …
