Energy crops with multiple benefits #Scichallenge2017
#Scichallenge2017 With this presentation we are able to demonstrate how, thanks to the in vitro way of plant cultivation, a crop can be used to obtain renewable energy, and, therefore, it can also solve big environmental problems.
BIOMASS: SOURCE OF BIOENERGY
Biomass is a renewable energy source derived from living organisms that can be used to generate electricity or produce heat through combustion, torrefaction, pyrolysis, and gasification. It has advantages like being renewable, providing rural employment, and potentially being cleaner than coal, but also has disadvantages like having a lower energy content than fossil fuels and higher transportation and storage costs. The document discusses various methods of converting biomass into energy sources like ethanol, methane, biodiesel, and heat.
Biofuel
Biofuels can now be produced using bacteria with recombinant DNA rather than crops. Different types of bacteria can produce ethanol, diesel, or electricity. To produce these biofuels, genes are taken from plants or other bacteria and inserted into bacteria. These genes allow the bacteria to break down biomass like cellulose and convert the sugars into the desired biofuel. If developed further, bacterial biofuels could replace fossil fuels and reduce dependence on oil.
“Microbial Biomass” A Renewable Energy For The Future
The document discusses microbial biomass and its applications in bioenergy production. It describes how microbial biomass from bacteria, fungi and algae can be used to produce biofuels through various processes like microbial fuel cells and hydrogen production. Microbial fuel cells generate electricity from organic matter by transferring electrons to anode with the help of exoelectrogenic bacteria. Cyanobacteria can also produce hydrogen through nitrogenase enzyme or soluble hydrogenase. The document further discusses biodiesel production from oleaginous fungi which have the ability to accumulate high lipids under stress.
Fuel final-1
This document discusses biomass as a renewable energy source. It provides the following information:
- Biomass currently makes up 10.2% of worldwide energy consumption and includes sources like wood waste and food crop residue.
- There are three main processes to generate electricity from biomass: pyrolysis, gasification, and direct combustion. Pyrolysis and gasification are more advanced processes that require more investment but produce higher value fuels.
- Biomass has advantages as a sustainable source that absorbs carbon dioxide, but also has disadvantages like requiring large land areas and having higher costs than fossil fuels.
- Several large biomass power plants around the world produce hundreds of megawatts of power.
Waste to wealth
This document discusses ways to convert waste into wealth through various technologies. It defines waste and lists common sources of waste. It then outlines the principles of reducing, reusing, recycling, and recovering waste. Several methods are described to convert organic waste into valuable products like compost, biofuel, charcoal briquettes, biogas, and mushrooms. Agro-waste can be used for mushroom cultivation and ethanol production. Fruit waste is also discussed as a source for citric acid production. The goal is to find economic uses for waste and reduce environmental impacts.
Biogas
Biogas is a renewable energy source produced from the breakdown of organic matter by bacteria. It is composed mainly of methane and carbon dioxide. Biogas forms during the decomposition of organic wastes from sources like livestock manure, food scraps, and plant materials. It has advantages as a clean and renewable fuel that reduces greenhouse gas emissions. However, challenges remain in simplifying and lowering the cost of biogas production technologies. The government of Pakistan is promoting biogas use, especially in rural agricultural areas, by providing biogas plants to villages to help overcome electricity problems and develop renewable sources.
Green methods
Geothermal energy can be harnessed by running pipes deep underground to take advantage of the earth's consistent temperature. This allows for efficient heating and cooling of homes without heavy reliance on weather-dependent solar panels. Researchers are also working on improving solar cell technology using quantum dots and multi-exciton generation to capture more solar energy. Additionally, some universities are developing methods to produce renewable hydrocarbon fuels using bacteria, sunlight, and carbon dioxide to potentially reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. Small everyday practices like short showers, collecting rainwater, and reusing water can also help conserve resources.

Specifically, it mentions using an invention to save energy from storm lightnings and distributing it around town, as well as using biodiesel buses which are less polluting. The document also describes discussing energy topics in working groups to observe energy consumption and searching for information from various sources to add to a knowledge database.
Wastewater
Wastewater can be seen as an energy resource rather than just a waste problem. Technologies exist or are being developed to generate energy from wastewater, including producing biogas through anaerobic digestion. Codigestion, where stabilized sewage sludge is treated with other substrates, has significantly increased biogas production. A project in Barcelona aims to modify treatment processes to generate rather than consume energy by using bacteria to remove nitrogen without using organic carbon. Microalgae purification can remove phosphorus and nitrogen from wastewater while producing biomass that can be used to make biodiesel, giving wastewater added value. Bacterial electrochemistry also shows promise for generating electricity from wastewater. These technologies support a
Bioethanol biofuel renewable energy resources
This document summarizes a lecture about renewable energy resources, focusing on bioethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass. It discusses the classification of biofuels as first or second generation. The process of producing cellulosic bioethanol involves pretreating lignocellulosic biomass, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis to break it down into sugars and fermentation to convert the sugars to ethanol. Advantages of bioethanol include cleaner exhaust, reduced greenhouse gases, and energy security. Challenges include the amount of land required and potential impacts on food production. Biodiesel production via transesterification of vegetable oils is also summarized.
Renewable energy research
Biomass refers to natural materials that contain stored solar energy, such as wood, straw, manure, garbage, and alcohol fuels. It is found in places with abundant crops, trees, animals, and garbage. Biomass can be used on both large and small scales. The most common way to use biomass for energy is to burn it to produce heat, which is then used to boil water and power generators. While biomass technology is mature, biofuel technology is still experimental. Biomass accounts for around 15% of the world's total energy supply. It has low costs but there are concerns about deforestation and health impacts from biomass burning.

Technology Roadmap: Bioenergy for Heat and Power
This document discusses scenarios for reducing CO2 emissions through increased use of bioenergy. A "6C Scenario" projects business as usual emissions of 58 gigatons by 2050 while a "2C Scenario" aims to halve energy-related CO2 emissions to 16 gigatons through carbon pricing and policy support for bioenergy. The 2C Scenario projections include a decline in traditional biomass for cooking being replaced by more efficient alternatives, increased bioenergy consumption by industry and buildings, more than a ten-fold increase in bioenergy electricity production, and potential emission reductions of 2 gigatons through bioenergy heat and power. Key policy recommendations include establishing long-term frameworks and sustainability standards for bioenergy alongside international
Cb renewables
The document discusses renewable energy solutions for businesses facing increasing utility bills and lower profit margins due to compliance regulations. It proposes installing new energy products like heat pumps, solar PV, and LEDs to take advantage of government incentives and green financing options. This would result in lower utility bills by up to 50%, improved profit margins, and a greener image and compliance for businesses.
1.2
All living things require energy and nutrients. Producers, like plants, make their own food through photosynthesis, while consumers obtain energy and nutrients by eating other organisms or their byproducts. Energy flows through organisms from the environment and is never recycled, only flowing in one direction before being lost as heat. All organisms sense and respond to changes internally and externally to maintain homeostasis. DNA carries hereditary information that guides development, growth, reproduction, and is inherited, leading to similarities and variations between individuals and species.
Bio battery
This technical presentation discusses bio batteries. Bio batteries use enzymes to break down glucose from sources like human blood to directly produce energy, which is then stored in the battery. Bio batteries consist of an anode, cathode, electrolyte and separator. They have advantages over other batteries like being able to recharge instantly through a constant glucose supply, and being non-flammable and non-toxic. However, bio batteries currently cannot retain energy as long as conventional batteries. Researchers continue working to improve bio batteries as a renewable and environmentally friendly energy source.
Part 1
The document discusses energy usage, noting that it is becoming more acute and expensive. It analyzes the causes of increased energy usage such as modern lifestyles, weather patterns, and human demand for convenience. This puts financial burdens on individuals and relies heavily on non-renewable natural resources. The document then outlines a process flow that includes identifying the original problem of high energy usage and costs, analyzing causes and effects, and exploring engineering contradictions and solutions following the 40 inventive principles.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
