Two important challenges need to be addressed to realize a practical biorefinery for the
conversion of biomass to fuels and chemicals:(i) effective methods for the degradation and …

Ultrasound irradiation has been gaining increasing interests over the years to assist
biological conversion of lignocellulosic biomass and waste materials to biofuels. As such …

To evaluate the impact of fermentation with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens U304 on nutritional
quality and bioactivity of soybean meal (SBM), we analyzed the solid-state fermentation …

The conversion of lignocellulosic biomass for biofuels and biorefinery applications is limited
due to the cost of pretreatment to separate or access the biomass's three main usable …

Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to optimize alkaline pretreatment
condition for maximum glucose yield of rice straw with respect to NaOH concentration (1.0 …

Wheat is grown in most of the Indian and Chinese regions and after harvesting, the
remaining straw offers considerable promise as a renewable source most suitable for …

Extraction has been used probably since the discovery of fire. Egyptians and Phoenicians,
