From:Biotechnology for Biofuels (Vol. 14, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground High-temperature bioethanol production benefits from yeast thermotolerance. Salt stress could induce obvious cross-protection against heat stress of Pichia kudriavzevii, contributing to the improvement of...
-
From:Chemical Engineering (Vol. 116, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedEthanol from plant and forestry waste and dedicated energy crops could replace approximately one-third of U.S. gasoline requirements by 2030 on a sustainable basis, according to a study by Sandia National Laboratories...
-
From:Biotechnology for Biofuels (Vol. 5, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Historically, acid pretreatment technology for the production of bio-ethanol from corn stover has required severe conditions to overcome biomass recalcitrance. However, the high usage of acid and steam at...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 6, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedBiofuels derived from lignocellulosic biomass offer promising alternative renewable energy sources for transportation fuels. Significant effort has been made to engineer Saccharomyces cerevisiae to efficiently ferment...
-
From:Journal of Nanomaterials (Vol. 2021) Peer-ReviewedThe present work carries out an experimental comparative analysis of the performance and emission of exhaust gases of the Otto cycle with four automotive times. The comparison was made between alternative fuels such as...
-
From:Biotechnology for Biofuels (Vol. 2) Peer-ReviewedAuthors: Raphael Slade (corresponding author) [1]; Ausilio Bauen [1]; Nilay Shah [2] Background The production of transport fuels from lignocellulosic biomass using so-called second-generation conversion...
-
From:The Energy Journal (Vol. 36, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedWe develop an analytical and numerical multi-market model that integrates land, fuel, and food markets, and link it with an emissions model to quantify the importance of carbon leakage relative to the intended emissions...
-
From:Nature (Vol. 491, Issue 7426) Peer-Reviewed"A new moment for mankind." That was ZA how Brazil's former president, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, described his country's biofUel boom in March 2007. Back then, Brazil was the poster child of ethanol fuel, its output...
-
From:Contemporary Economic Policy (Vol. 27, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedGasohol has received considerable governmental financial support because it is alleged to have important ecological and economic advantages. It is, for instance, supposed to reduce our extraction of nonrenewable energy,...

From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 5, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedObjectives Binge alcohol drinking often triggers myocardial contractile dysfunction although the underlying mechanism is not fully clear. This study was designed to examine the impact of cardiac-specific...
-
From:Agricultural Research (Vol. 55, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedA robot recently reported to work at ARS's National Center for Agricultural Utilization Research (NCAUR) in Peoria, Illinois, and its arrival was met with enthusiasm by many scientists there. The robot in question...
