Efficient Adsorption of Methylene Blue by Polyaminocarboxylated Modified Hydrochar Derived from Sugarcane Bagasse Open
Sugarcane bagasse (SCB) was transformed into polyaminocarboxylated modified hydrochar (ACHC) by hydrothermal carbonization (HTC), which was then followed by activation, etherification, amination, and carboxylation successively. ACHC was sy…
Improved prediction of biomass gasification models through machine learning Open
Gasification of lignocellulosic biomass can be used to produce syngas used as a biorefinery feedstock. To facilitate the commercialisation of the gasification process, models are used to predict the outputs, simulate the impacts of irregul…
Conceptual Process Design, Techno-Economics, and Greenhouse Gas Analysis of Furfuryl Alcohol Production via Transfer Hydrogenation Open

Unveiling sustainable synergy and ageing stability of bio-oils from cotton gin trash and plastic waste co-liquefaction for an integrated waste-to-energy solution Open
Co-liquefaction is an emerging technology aimed at enhancing bio-oil yield and quality, compensating for decrease in feedstock, increasing productivity, and adding revenue to bio-refineries. This study delves into the influence of plastic …
Advancing precision fermentation: Minimizing power demand of industrial scale bioreactors through mechanistic modelling Open
Minimizing power consumption in large-scale aerobic fermentation is essential for cost-effective operations. A mechanistic model of aerobic precision fermentation was developed integrating microbial growth parameters, thermodynamic data, a…
Technology comparison for sequential extraction of fucoidan and sodium alginate from Ascophyllum nodosum using a glycerol and choline chloride solvent Open
Brown algae are the main source of polysaccharides such as fucoidan and alginate, which can be used to develop a wide range of bioactive and polymer materials. In this study, sodium alginate and fucoidan were sequentially extracted using t…
A review on modelling of thermochemical processing of biomass for biofuels and prospects of artificial intelligence-enhanced approaches Open
Biofuels from lignocellulosic biomass converted via thermochemical technologies can be renewable and sustainable, which makes them promising as alternatives to conventional fossil fuels. Prior to building industrial-scale thermochemical co…
Wastes to profit: a circular economy approach to value-addition in livestock industries Open
The livestock sector is a fundamental part of the modern global economy and provides food, clothing, furnishings, and various other products. So as to ensure its resilience to changes in consumer expectations, cost of production, and envir…
Quantifying the impact of MLA’s Supply Chain Sustainability Program in contributing to the Australian red meat industry’s social license to operate Open
In order to assess the impact of the Supply Chain Sustainability Program, an evaluation of projects within its scope was conducted. A framework that identifies priority aspects aligned with strategy and links aspects to impacts and measura…
Energy and chemical conversion of five Australian lignocellulosic feedstocks into bio-crude through liquefaction Open
Thermal liquefaction of five potential feedstocks namely, banana bunch stems (BBS), pineapple tops (PT), Forage sorghum (FS), bagasse (Ba) and Arundo donax (AD) were examined from an energy perspective at a large laboratory scale.
