This paper compares the cost and life cycle environmental performance of renewable diesel produced from upgraded catalytic fast pyrolysis (CFP) and fast pyrolysis (FP) bio-oils produced from forest residues. Integrating zeolite catalyst into the pyro

Biodiesel fuel has received considerable attention as a more sustainable alternative to traditional fuel. This paper presents a life cycle assessment (LCA) for producing biodiesel fuel from waste vegetable oil (WVO). Comparisons are made for differen
Biofuels have received considerable attention as a more sustainable solution for transportation fuels. Used vegetable oil, normally considered a waste product, has been suggested as a possible candidate. Herein we perform a life cycle assessment to d

The tire industry is currently considering natural rubber from guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray) as a viable alternative to imported Hevea natural rubber, or petroleum-based synthetics, to meet expanding materials needs of the industry. However, o

Horse manure, the improper disposal of which, imposes considerable environmental costs, constitutes an apt feedstock for conversion to renewable fuels and chemicals when tail gas reactive pyrolysis (TGRP) is employed. TGRP is a modification of fast p

The resource efficiency of biofuel production via biomass pyrolysis is evaluated using exergy as an assessment metric. Three feedstocks, important to various sectors of U.S. agriculture, switchgrass, forest residue, and equine waste, are considered f

The guayule (Parthenium argentatum) plant is a source of natural rubber and a possible high-energy biofuel. Herein guayule bagasse, the residual biomass after latex extraction, which accounts for 90% of the processed plant material, is modeled in a f

Previous experimental and computational studies have indicated that interfaces formed in steady, converging microchannel flows with similar liquids tend to be planar in nature under a variety of conditions relevant to micro-scale flows, including MEM
