Microwave heating processing as alternative of pretreatment in second-generation biorefinery: An overview

TL;DR: An overview of the various risk-based approaches that are used for isolation, containment, separation, restoration reclamation and remediation of soil, sediments, surface water and groundwater contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons and organic compounds can be found in this article.

TL;DR: In this article, a review focusing on recent applications of microwave processing technologies including microwave drying, heating, and sterilizing in fruit (banana, apple, olive, sour cherries, pomegranate arils, blueberries, kiwifruit, aronia, strawberry, and grape tomato), vegetables (potato, bamboo shoot, purslane leaves, onion, green bean, pumpkin, eggplant, edamame, sea tangle, garlic, kale, red cabbage, tomato, cassava, lentils, chickpea, broccoli, Brussels spr

TL;DR: Challenges and strategies for solutions are highlighted and unit integration and system optimization are needed to maximize economic and environmental benefits for cellulosic ethanol production.

TL;DR: In this article, a review focuses on pretreatment techniques for improving sewage sludge AD, which include mechanical, chemical, thermal, and biological processes, and various pretreatment process effects are discussed in terms of advantages and disadvantages.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of pretreatment process by combining chemical and irradiation to OPEFB's properties as raw materials in the hydrolysis reaction producing sugars which will be fermented into ethanol.

TL;DR: In this article, a high frequency electromagnetic field and thermal fluid model were developed in ANSYS multiphysics to calculate the temperature change in water flow using a 915MHz microwave unit.

TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of a monomode and a multimode microwave device for substrate screening in a multimodal environment is evaluated. But the authors focus on the effects of differences in microwave absorptivity of reaction mixtures on the product conversions in screening multiple substrates simultaneously in a multi-modal microwave apparatus.

TL;DR: Ruiz et al. as discussed by the authors reported the current use and future potential of renewable sources in the production of renewable energy, which included solar, hydroelectric, geothermal and wind energy, and bioenergy.
