A rapid and facile laboratory-scale assay that can differentiate among different feedstocks with respect to reactivity (for example, the amount of soluble carbohydrates produced per unit biomass) can help identify highly reactive or recalcitrant feedstock samples, which could then be investigated in more detail.
However, powder characteristics tend to deviate from their pre-process state following different stages of the process which could affect feedstock behaviour and final part quality.
However, the European chemical industry is dependent on access to feedstock from sources outside of Europe, which could cause the companies to compete for essential raw materials.
The slurry-phase hydrocracking is a promising technology, which could process inferior feedstock oils with the characteristics of high metal content, high sulphur content and high carbon residue, etc., [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6].
The model simulation results also emphasize the benefit of using co-culture system in terms of its adjustability to match with each type of feedstock composing of different sugar ratio, which could not be achieved if the single-strain culture is used.
SS has high bagasse yield, which could be a feedstock for cellulosic ethanol production and biopower generation.
Due to limitations on sugar manufacturing in EU countries, the capacity of sugar factories is not fully utilized and they are ready to increase the processing of sugar beet into intermediates, which could serve as feedstock for bioethanol factories.
Some researchers are exploring renewable feedstocks as a source for novel materials, which could provide another economic incentive to companies to pursue biobased chemical production.
These products, which could be useful as feedstocks for industrial chemicals, contained 70% of the carbon originally present in the crude bio-oil.
