Life Cycle Assessment of Thermochemical Conversion of Empty Fruit Bunch of Oil Palm to Bio-Methane

Edgard Gnansounou, Paolo Montafia

The energy demand is increasing as well as the GHG emissions and the fossil fuels depletion. Public awareness on this topic significantly raised up in last decades. Nowadays conversion of residual biomasses in energy represents a real opportunity. However, ...

Towards an Integrated Sustainability Assessment of Biorefineries

Edgard Gnansounou, Daniel Tuazon

The sustainability of biofuel operations encompasses several issues which are key to promoting uptake in a global environment. However, much of the analysis of biofuel production tends to be dominated by life cycle assessment (LCA) for assessing environmen ...

Life Cycle Assessment of Algal Biorefinery

Edgard Gnansounou, Jegannathan Kenthorai Raman

Only biodiesel production from algae would not be economically favorable. Other co-products such as animal feed and biochemical from algae have to be produced to utilize the full potential of algae nutrient composition and to fulfill the growing demand of ...
