Palm Biomass to Furfural
Date palm trees produce huge amount of agricultural wastes in the form of dry leaves, stems, pits, seeds etc.
| It’s chemical composition is suitable to make furfural.
Australia: Sugar set for ‘Energycane’ Reinvention
Sugarcane is ideal for renewables because it is fast-growing with abundant biomass.
Besides sugar and cellulose, its hemicelluloses (or the so called 5-carbon sugars, Pentoses) are an ideal feedstock to make furfural (one of the oldest bio-based chemical building blocks).
Plastics from sugar: the end to petrochemicals?
Europe is determined to positively transform its chemical production by replacing oil based for innovative bio based production methods
Bioenergy crops could store more carbon in soil
Bioenergy crops lets much more carbon accumulate in the soil.
Two More Factsheets: Biobased Products
There are already a wide range of commercially available bio-based products on the market offering a diverse range of functionalities.
Why should the public sector purchase them?
Factsheet #1: What are biobased products?
Sustainability of bio-based products is dependent on multiple factors, such as sourcing of feedstock, design of the production process, adequate choice of disposal option, etc.
Defining Moment for Bioplastic Feedstock Developments
The decline of crude oil prices during 2015 forward has hampered the growth of bioplastics, but there are remarkable technology achievements to make biochemical building blocks.
Furfural Market on the Move: Double Digit Growth
Increasing penetration of furfural derivatives in various industry level application markets are driving solid growth.
A Well Kept Secret: How To Add (More) Value To Biomass
Furfural is today recognised as one of the most import biobased chemical building blocks
