Abstract:Sugarcane has primarily been used for sugar and ethanol production. It creates large quantities of residual lignocellulosic biomass such as sugarcane bagasse, leaves, tops, and vinasse. Biomass is a sustainable prospect for biorefineries aiming to optimize production processes. We detail recent research developments in recycling sugarcane, including energy generation and pyrolysis to obtain biofuels, for example. To produce biochar, the energy cost of operating at high temperatures and large-scale production r… Show more
Biowaste-derived carbon quantum dots (CQDs) offer a wide range of applications, including bioimaging, drug degradation and manufacturing of sensors, photodetectors and photosensitisers.
