In her PhD thesis Ruth Sanz-Barrio, an agricultural engineer of the NUP/UPNA-Public University of Navarre and researcher at the Institute of Biotechnology (mixed centre of the CSIC-Spanish National Research Council, Public University of Navarre and the Government of Navarre), has demonstrated, for the first time, the viability of using specific tobacco proteins (known as thioredoxins) as biotechnological tools in plants.
Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue: Advanced Biofuels Country Rankings
The widespread introduction of a clean-burning synthetic fuel, dimethyl ether (DME), is a step closer following the announcement of a A$6 million partnership between CSIRO and its Indian equivalent, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR).
Scientists report in Nature Communications that they have engineered yeast to consume acetic acid, a previously unwanted byproduct of the process of converting plant leaves, stems and other tissues into biofuels. The innovation increases ethanol yield from lignocellulosic sources by about 10 percent.
NextFuels, a pioneer in transforming agricultural residue into biofuels, is actively narrowing the search for a site for its initial pilot plant to Southeast Asia. The pilot plant will demonstrate how NextFuels can economically produce transportation and industrial fuels from wet, unprocessed agricultural waste from palm oil plantations.
Butamax™ Advanced Biofuels LLC, the leading biobutanol technology company, and Highwater Ethanol LLC, a leading producer of first generation ethanol, have begun to retrofit Highwater's ethanol plant in Lamberton, Minnesota for the production of biobutanol. Butamax's cutting edge technology package will include the installation of novel corn oil separation technology.
Modern gas turbine power plants represent one of the mostefficient and economic conventional power generation technologiessuitable for large-scale and smaller scale applications.
UCLA chemical engineering researchers have created a new synthetic metabolic pathway for breaking down glucose that could lead to a 50 percent increase in the production of biofuels.
Cellana, a leading developer of algae-based feedstocks for biofuels, animal feed/food, and Omega-3 nutritional oils, announced today that several key personnel will present at the upcoming 2013 Algae Biomass Summit.
Sept. 23, a group of qualified biomass technology contractors was identified and awarded 13 Multiple Award Task Order Contracts (MATOC) by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville, working with the Army Energy Initiatives Task Force (EITF).
