A review of environmental life cycle assessments of liquid transportation biofuels in the Pan American Region
(2015-12)Life-cycle assessment (LCA) has been applied to many biofuel and bioenergy systems to determine potential environmental impacts, but the conclusions have varied. Different methodologies and processes for conducting LCA of ... -
Bioprospecting of microbial strains for biofuel production: metabolic engineering, applications, and challenges
(BMC, 2021-01)The issues of global warming, coupled with fossil fuel depletion, have undoubtedly led to renewed interest in other sources of commercial fuels. The search for renewable fuels has motivated research into the biological ... -
Clean Biofuel Production and Phytoremediation Solutions from Contaminated Lands Worldwide
(ETA Florence Renewable Energies (ETA Srl), 2022-05-09)The overall objective of the H2020 Phy2Climate project is to build the bridge between the phytoremediation of contaminated sites with the production of clean drop-in biofuels. As the project aims for the production of ... -
Combining empirical and theory-based land-use modelling approaches to assess economic potential of biofuel production avoiding iLUC: Argentina as a case study
(Elsevier, 2014-03)In this paper, a land-use modelling framework is presented combining empirical and theory-based modelling approaches to determine economic potential of biofuel production avoiding indirect land-use changes (iLUC) resulting ... -
Downgrading recent stimates of land available for biofuel production
(2013-02)Recent estimates of additional land available for bioenergy production range from 320 to 1411 million ha. These estimates were generated from four scenarios regarding the types of land suitable for bioenergy production ... -
Identificación de certificación de sustentabilidad de Biomasa para lograr insertarse en mercados internacionales
(edUTecNe, 2014-10)El objetivo principal es identificar los esquemas de certificación de sustentabilidad requeridos en mercados mundiales. Identificar las falencias y fortalezas dentro de la agroindustria argentina. Al mismo tiempo, se busca ... -
Percepción pública: relevamiento sobre bioenergía en la Argentina
(INTA Ediciones, 2016-03)La aceptación social de las tecnologías energéticas (Wüstenghagen et al., 2007) puede considerarse como un consentimiento socio-político, por el público y los responsables políticos, aceptación por el mercado donde el ... -
Phytoremediation of Contaminated Sites to Produce Feedstock for Sustainable Biofuels
(ETA Florence Renewable Energies (ETA Srl), 2023-06-05)Biomass can play a higher role for energy availability and security in the context of decarbonisation; but land scarcity is a critical and limiting factor for the global biofuel production from energy crops. At the same ... -
Policies for the sustainable development of biofuels in the Pan American region: a review and synthesis of five countries
(Springer, 2015-12)Rapid growth of biofuel production in the United States and Brazil over the past decade has increased interest in replicating this success in other nations of the Pan American region. However, the continued use of food-based ... -
Purification and characterization of a GH43 β-xylosidase from Enterobacter sp. identified and cloned from forest soil bacteria
(Elsevier, 2014-03)The use of lignocellulosic biomass for second generation biofuels requires optimization of enzymatic breakdown of plant cell walls. In this work, cellulolytic bacteria were isolated from a native and two cultivated forest ...
