Scarcity of the non-renewable energy sources, global warming, environmental pollution, and
raising the cost of petroleum are the motive for the development of renewable, eco-friendly …

Microwave alkali pretreated wheat straw was used for in-house enzyme production by
Aspergillusflavus and Trichodermareesei. Produced enzymes were concentrated, pooled …

Rice husk is one of the abundant lignocellulosic feed stocks in the world. It contains mixtures

Cellulose-rich agricultural residues are promising renewable sources for producing various
value-added products such as 2 nd generation biofuels. However, the efficiency of the …

Sugar beet pulp, a byproduct of sugar beet processing, can be used as a feedstock in
second‐generation ethanol production. The objective of this study was to investigate the …

Green biotechnology offers a promising approach to convert most of the solid agricultural
wastes particularly lignocellulosic biomass into liquid biofuels. In this study, pretreatment of …

Polyhydroxybutyrate is a type of biopolymer that can be produced from hydrolyzed
polysaccharide materials and could eventually replace polypropylene and polyethylene …
