Energy demands, pollution and global warming induced by globalization are rising, thus
calling for alternative sources of energies. In particular, biofuels are increasingly used for …

Pyrolysis and liquefaction are widely accepted methods used for the synthesis of bio-oil
using biomass. The quality and quantity of the bio-oil, produced either from pyrolysis or …

Potato is the fourth most abundant crop harvested annually worldwide. Potato peel waste
(PPW) is the main waste stream of potato-processing industries which is generated in large …

Growing environmental concerns, increased population, and the need to meet the
diversification of the source of global energy have led to increased demand for biofuels …

Liquefaction, a useful method of turning whole biomass into liquids, provides advantages for
energy and polymers and finds applications in many sectors. This paper reviews the …

Bio-oil, although rich in chemical species, is primarily used as fuel oil, due to its greater
calorific power when compared to the biomass from which it is made. The incomplete …

Bio asphalt is an organic polymer derived from biomass resources, which has the potential
to partially or completely replace petroleum asphalt. This study used lignocellulose to …

With increasing interest in renewable energy sources, particularly on biomass, and on the
technologies to transform them into liquids fuels comes the need to assess its properties …

This study focused on bio-oil production by thermochemical liquefaction. For the reaction,
the burnt pine heartwood was used as feedstock material, 2-Ethylhexanol (2-EHEX) was …

This paper presents the findings of a study of the pelleting process of pine sawdust with the
addition of waste in the form of potato pulp (as a natural binder), in the context of producing …
