This paper reviews the application of ionic liquids to the deconstruction and fractionation of
lignocellulosic biomass, in a process step that is commonly called pretreatment. It is divided …

Miscanthus represents a key candidate energy crop for use in biomass‐to‐liquid fuel‐
conversion processes and biorefineries to produce a range of liquid fuels and chemicals; it …

Developing technologies for the production of alternative fuels from biorenewable resources
is a field of interest for many researchers. Adequate substitute to diesel fuel is biodiesel that …

Biomass pretreatment using certain ionic liquids (ILs), such as 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium
acetate ([C2mim][OAc]), can be highly effective at reducing the recalcitrance of …

Transesterification is the most common method for producing biodiesel. Known as a suitable
substitute to diesel fuel, the synthesis involves renewable sources as feedstock. Application …

Lignocellulosic biomass has been used as starting materials in the process of producing
biofuels and chemicals. A pretreatment step is necessary to mitigate the inherent …

Current bottlenecks in the large-scale commercial use of many ionic liquids (ILs) include
their high costs, low biodegradability, and often unknown toxicities. As a proactive effort to …

Ionic liquids (ILs) can play multiple roles in lignocellulose biorefineries, including utilization
as agents for the separation of selected compounds or as reaction media for processing …

A novel, simple and reliable electrochemical method for simultaneous determination and
direct electro-oxidation behaviors of guanine (G), adenine (A) and thymine (T) was …

Objective Oxidative stress has a major role in development of diabetic complications. In this
study we investigated whether clinoptilolite and nano-sized clinoptilolite could reduce …
