The Pilot Project - Developing a farmers’ toolbox for integrated pest management practices from across the Union, was commissioned by the European Commission - Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural...
The world production of marine macroalgae, or seaweed, has more than tripled since the turn of the millennium, increasing from 10.6 million tonnes in 2000 to 32.4 million tonnes in 2018. Increased...
In 2014, Linger presented a tandem process for lignin valorization by integrating chemical and biological catalysis. Chemical pretreatment of corn stover generated mixed lignocellulose-derived monomers that were...
Structure- and computational-aided engineering of an oxidase to produce isoeugenol from a lignin-derived compound
Various 4-alkylphenols can be easily obtained through reductive catalytic fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass. Selective dehydrogenation of 4- n-propylguaiacol results in the formation of isoeugenol, a valuable...
Lignin Nanoparticles as an Interfacial Modulator in Tough and Multi-Resistant Cellulose–Polycaprolactone Nanocomposites Based on a Pickering Emulsions Strategy
Free-standing nanocellulosic films (nanopapers) emerge as attractive sustainable materials to replace traditional plastics. However, the moisture sensitivity of cellulose and its poor dispersion in hydrophobic polymers...
Various materials have been used to remove environmental contaminants for decades and have been an effective strategy for environmental cleanups. The current nonrenewable materials used for this purpose...
Integrating catalytic CO 2 reduction with bioconversion could substantially advance carbon capture and utilization and mitigate climate change. However, the state-of-the-arts are limited by inefficient...
Planet Positive Chemicals - Pathways for the chemical industry to enable a sustainable global economy
The Planet Positive Chemicals report provides an unprecedented blueprint for the future of the industry, exploring how it can reinvent itself as a climate solution, operate within planetary...
For landowners and agencies seeking to implement grassland restoration projects and hazardous fuels reduction projects, biochar can be a key piece of the restoration-economics puzzle. Biochar plays...
