The conversion of sugarcane, the world's largest crop, to energy vectors, namely first and second-generation ethanol and electricity, is an ongoing scientific endeavor. This conversion makes use of complex processes with numerous unit operations and proces ...
The application of methodologies for the optimal design of integrated processes has seen increased interest in literature. This article builds on previous works and applies a systematic methodology to an integrated first and second generation ethanol produ ...
The application of systematic methodologies for the optimal design of integrated processes has seen increased interest in literature, namely for bioprocesses. The development and application of such a methodology to ethanol and power production from sugarc ...
This article applies a systematic methodology to the optimization and comparison of two sugarcane conversion processes of great potential: the production of first generation ethanol and electricity in an integrated distillery and cogeneration plant (1G+COG ...
