Abstract

Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. hybrids) is an economically important crop for both sugar and biofuel industries. Fiber and sucrose contents are the two most critical quantitative traits in sugarcane breeding that require multiple-year and multiple-location evaluations. Marker-assisted selection (MAS)...

Abstract

The EC 2019/187 shows the rules for the usage of ethyl alcohols to fortify wines. These must be obtained from products derived from agriculture and the use of alcohols of mineral or chemical origin is not authorized. The ethyl alcohols authorized for the fortification in the D.O. Sherry have wine...

Abstract

India is the largest producer of sugarcane in Asia and its sugar industry represents the second largest agro-based industry. Sugarcane bagasse (SCB), a major waste from sugar industries, is indisputably lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) embedding ~60% carbohydrates, making it a renewable source of...

Abstract

The commentary focuses on the current state of bioethanol production and lists some of the big bioethanol-producing facilities. Currently, starch and sugarcane molasses, which compete for their use in human food, are the major source of industrial ethanol. Cellulosic ethanol is discussed which is...

Abstract

Exposure to sugar cane operations around the world has led to conclusions about what distinguishes an excellent operation from an average or mediocre one. This article evaluates the hallmarks of a mill that lead to efficient performance, from cane harvesting through the individual unit operations...

Abstract

Open burning of agricultural residues causes numerous complications including particulate matter pollution in the air, soil degradation, global warming and many more. Since they possess bio-conversion potential, agro-industrial residues including sugarcane bagasse (SCB), rice straw (RS), corncob...

Abstract

PH is notably known as the main variable defining distinct metabolic pathways during sugarcane vinasse dark fermentation. However, different alkalinizing (e.g. sodium bicarbonate; NaHCO3) and/or neutralizing (e.g. sodium hydroxide; NaOH) approaches were never directly compared to understand the...

Abstract

This study conducted mild organosolv pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse with acetone/phenoxyethanol/water (APW) solutions to improve sugar production in the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis step. The Box-Behnken design was used to optimize pretreatment conditions based on lignin removal. Further...

Abstract

In the context of a biorefinery, lignocellulosic materials represent an important source of raw material for the bioconversion of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin into value-added products, such as xylose for fermentation, oligosaccharides, and bioplastics for packaging. Among the most abundant ...

Abstract

Saccharification of lignocellulosic biomass might contribute to the bioethanol production, positively impacting energy security and sustainability. Lignin reduces polysaccharide saccharification and needs to be depolymerized and separated to improve fermentable sugar yield. Here, we report a...
