New technique to monitor contamination in bioethanol production could increase revenue in more than $1.6 billion USD and reduce CO2 emissions by 2 million tons. For the first time ever, researchers at ...

Most of the corn grown in the US has been improved using biotechnology to provide protection from insect damage and/or herbicide tolerance. The insect resistance trait has the additional benefit of ...

With the introduction of a single bacterial gene into yeast, researchers from Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands achieved three improvements in bioethanol production from agricultural ...

Sweden’s University of Borås doctoral student Ramkumar Nair has shown it is possible to produce bioethanol from agricultural and industrial waste in existing plants in a socioeconomically sustainable ...

A porous metal-organic framework sorbent could boost the efficiency of ethanol production from cellulosic biomass by trapping compounds that inhibit fermentation, according to a study (Chem. Commun.

MBI’s efforts with a biomass pretreatment technology will be coupled with SunEthanol’s fermentation product. SunEthanol and MBI International are collaborating to scale up a fermentation method for ...

A new technique to monitor contamination in bioethanol production could increase revenue by more than $1.6 billion USD and reduce CO2 emissions by 2 million tons. In the fight against global warming, ...

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is durable and holds up against moisture and corrosion. That makes it a good plastic for pipes, construction material, and medical devices. But its high chlorine content also ...

Hydrogen could be made using agricultural waste under a new production process that uses less energy than existing methods and emits no greenhouse gases. The novel process turns bioethanol into clean ...
