2012-05-08An awarding ceremony to acknowledge foreign experts who have made special contributions to the social and economic development of Yunnan Province was held at Kunming Zhengzhuangying Hotel on April 26, 2012. Prof. Zhen Fang of XTBG was one of the 10 winners of 2012 Yunnan Friendship Award, presented each year by the Yunnan Provincial Givernment.Mr. Li Jiheng, governor of Yunnan Province, prese...方真研究员受邀参加2012第二届生物能源大会
2012-05-04生物能源领域的年度盛会——2012第二届生物能源大会于2012年4月25日至28日在中国西安曲江国际会议中心隆重举行。本届会议邀请了国内外生物能源领域的著名专家、世界各国科学院士、世界500强企业高管、世界各国对生物能源有突出贡献的人士参会,精英荟萃,规模空前。本届大会除主论坛外,还包括全球生物能源经济与政策、工业领导者论坛、生物燃料技术的最新研究进展、生物乙醇、生物柴油、藻类生物燃料、生物燃料汽车、航空生物...Progress in co-production of biodiesel and lactic acid from rapeseed oil
2012-03-24In April 2011, biomass group (http://brg.groups.xtbg.ac.cn/) in Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG), CAS reported their new progress in biodiesel production and conversion of by-product glycerol to high-value-added products. Related results were published in the international journal “Bioresource Technology” (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.biortech.2011.04.007), and filed a patent.Bio...Catalytic synthesis of biodiesel from Jatropha oil in acidic ionic liquids
2012-03-24In February 2011, biomass group (http://brg.groups.xtbg.ac.cn/) in XTBG, CAS reported their new progress on Jatropha biodiesel production. Results were published in the international journal “Bioresource Technology” (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.biortech.2011.02.079), and filed a Chinese invention patent.Biodiesel is an environment-friendly, renewable, high-qualified and green fuel. Developmen...A new method for producing dye and nano-particles from wood
2012-03-24Wood is mainly composed of lignin (20%), cellulose (50%) and hemicellulose (25%). These components can be catalytic hydrolyzed into their corresponding monomers by conventional enzymes or liquid acids. Among them, cellulose and hemicellulose are hydrolyzed into sugars, such as glucose. Recently, Professor Zhen Fang (http://brg.groups.xtbg.ac.cn/) found that wood could be quickly dissolved and h...Noncatalytic fast hydrolysis of wood
2012-03-24Without any pretreatment (energy-saving) and catalyst (environment-friendly), 99% of wood could be dissolved and hydrolyzed in hot compressed water within several seconds (quickly). Wood particles were rapidly dissolved firstly upon fast heated, and then hydrolyzed into sugars in the hot compressed water. Professor Zhen Fang (http://brg.groups.xtbg.ac.cn/) proposed and built up a controllable r...Progress on the production of biodiesel from Jatropha oil
2012-03-24In July 2010, biomass group (http://brg.groups.xtbg.ac.cn/) in Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG), CAS reported their new progress on continuous production of biodiesel fromJatrophaoil. Jatropha curcas L., as the most promising plant for biodiesel production, receives much attention at both home and abroad. Jatropha oil has a high content of free fatty acids, which results in the lo...Fast dissolution and hydrolysis of wood
2012-03-24Biomass is renewable and rich, and mainly in the form of lignocelluloses. Its annual production is equivalent to ten times of the global energy consumption. Lignin (20%), cellulose (50%) and hemicellulose (25%) are three major constituents of a typical lignocellulosic biomass (e.g., wood and grass), all of which could be hydrolyzed. The production of biofuels based on edible food was unacceptab...Phase behavior and decomposition of lignin in hot-compressed water
2012-03-24Lignin (20%), cellulose (50%) and hemicellulose (25%) are three major constituents of typical lignocellulosic biomass like wood and grass. Among them, lignin is a phenolic biopolymer, which is the most thermal-stable and the most difficult to be degraded by normal biological or thermal methods. Additionallly, it is the industrial waste of cellulosic ethanol and paper making, which makes its rec...Copyright © 2018 BIOMASS GROUP, NANJING AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY All Rights Reserved 登录
