Sugar and ethanol production potential of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) as an alternative energy feedstock: processing and physicochemical characterizations

Formulation and Optimization of Complementary Food Based on Its Nutritional and Antinutritional Analysis

“…Clarification was started during the boiling stage at 75°C (to make hot liming) by adding lime (10% calcium oxide) and filtered again after cooling to remove impurities in the form of scum. The clarified juice was heated on a hot plate to raise the temperature with continuous stirring and monitored using a thermometer [ 13 ]. Through constant boiling (as with increasing the temperature gradually from 100 to 118°C), the brownish foam was observed at the top and disappeared with uniform boiling at >110°C, which gave a golden color.…”

Biogas production from thermochemically pretreated sweet potato root waste

“…Pre-treatment before AD can help solve the digestion barriers (Bochmann & Montgomery, 2013;Taherzadeh & Karimi, 2008a). There are several pre-treatment methods for biogas feedstock which are broadly classified into four methods; mechanical, chemical, biological, and hybrid methods (Salelign & Duraisamy, 2021;Taherzadeh & Karimi, 2008b). Choosing an appropriate method of pre-treatment for a biogas feedstock is of great importance since each pre-treatment method produces different effects on the substrate (Gillian, 2011).…”

Characteristics of SI engine fueled with BE50-Isooctane blends with different ignition timings

“…With the dwindling resources of crude oil and the increasing consumption of fuel in the transportation, industrial, and household sectors, as well as the increase in the global population, have resulted in an energy crisis [ [1] , [2] , [3] ]. This situation emphasizes the crucial solution for renewable fuels [ 4 ]. Bioethanol is one type of renewable fuel that can be a solution to overcome the fuel energy crisis because it can be applied to spark-ignition (SI) engines [ [5] , [6] , [7] ].…”
