The aviation sector is responsible for at least 2% of the anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The production and use of new sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) appear as the most relevant strategy to achieve significant GHG emissions reductio...

Webb (Eds.), Food Industry Wastes : Assessment and Recuperation of Commodities (201-221). (2nd ed.). London: Academic Press. https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-817121-9.00010-3

The goal of the present study is to exemplify ways to valorize lignocellulosic food waste within the biorefinery concept. Rice straw was selected as the feedstock of focus, but the presented methodologies can be extended to other similar materials su...
