Description
The thesis investigated biorefining of sugarcane bagasse into value-added products. A glycerol-based fractionation method was developed at laboratory and pilot scales to convert sugarcane bagasse into fermentable sugar and high-quality lignin. The fermentable sugar was used for microbial oil production with applications in biofuel, biochemical, food and feed industries. The generated lignin had physico-chemical properties suitable for biochemical and polymer production. The thesis proposes methods to generate new revenue streams for Australian sugarcane industry.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
