Traditionally, bio-butanol is produced with the ABE (Acetone Butanol Ethanol) process using Clostridium species to ferment sugars from biomass. However, the route is associated with some disadvantages ...

The main route for biobutanol production is anaerobic clostridial fermentation using corn and sugarcane as substrates. The high-price of raw materials in above processes largely limits its application ...

The mechanism of ethanol upgrading to higher products is still under debate, especially regarding intermediate species and hydrogenation and dehydrogenation steps. In this work, we conducted a ...

A phase diagram of the pseudo-ternary Aerosol OT (AOT)+n-butanol/n-heptane/water system, at a mass ratio of AOT/n-butanol=2, is presented. Conductivity measurements ...

Under the Government of Canada's Chemicals Management Plan, we review and manage the potential risks that chemical substances can pose to Canadians and the environment. The first stage of the review ...
