Extraction of carotenoids from Chlorella vulgaris using green solvents and syngas production from residual biomass

Christof Holliger, Christian Ludwig, Shivom Sharma, Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Dominik Refardt

A combined process for carotenoids extraction and efficient bioenergy recovery from the wet microalgae biomass is proposed. High added-value products could thus be extracted prior a hydrothermal gasification of the algal biomass into synthetic natural gas. ...

Comparative techno-economic assessment and LCA of selected integrated sugarcane-based biorefineries

Edgard Gnansounou, Elia Mercedes Ruiz Pachon, Pavel Vaskan

This work addresses the economic and environmental performance of integrated biorefineries based on sugarcane juice and residues. Four multiproduct scenarios were considered; two from sugar mills and the others from ethanol distilleries. They are integrate ...

Opportunities for Switzerland to Contribute to the Production of Algal Biofuels: the Hydrothermal Pathway to Bio-Methane

Christian Ludwig, François Richard Vuille, Mariluz Bagnoud, Dominik Refardt

Microalgae have a significant potential to be a sustainable source of fuel and thus are of interest in the transition to a sustainable energy system, in particular for resource-dependent countries such as Switzerland. Independence of fossil fuels, consider ...

New proposal for production of bioactive compounds by supercritical technology integrated to a sugarcane biorefinery

François Maréchal, Adriano Viana Ensinas

The construction of a supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) plant inside or in close proximity to a sugarcane biorefinery producing first and second generation ethanol demonstrated to be very promising, increasing the economic potential of the SFE process i ...

Biofuel greenhouse gas calculations under the European Renewable Energy Directive - A comparison of the BioGrace tool vs. the tool of the Roundtable on Sustainable Biofuels

The European Renewable Energy Directive (EU RED) requires biofuels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) by 35% compared to fossil fuels in order to count towards mandatory biofuel quota or to be eligible for financial support schemes. This reduction ta ...

Thermo-Economic Optimization of Integrated First and Second Generation Sugarcane Ethanol Plant

François Maréchal, Adriano Viana Ensinas, Victor Codina Gironès, Juliana Queiroz Albarelli

The sugarcane industry has been responsible in some countries for the production of most of the sugar and ethanol available in the world for internal and external markets. In this sector, ethanol can be produced by fermentation of sugars obtained directly ...

Increasing Efficiency of Fuel Ethanol Production from Lignocellulosic Biomass by Process Integration

François Maréchal, Martin Gassner

The conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to ethanol is currently one of the most popular options for sustainable production of transportation fuel from renewable resources. Due to the resistance of lignin compounds to biological degradation and the import ...

Impact of biofuels production on land-use change and greenhouse gas emissions : methodological framework and system dynamics modeling applied to soybean-based biodiesel production in Argentina

Luis Alberto Panichelli

This research assesses the effect of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission constraints imposed in biofuel importing countries on the export potential of biofuel producing countries. Several countries are promoting the introduction of biofuels on their energy matri ...
