Fall 2022
Concerns about the climate and the need for energy security motivate the shift towards sustainable means of energy production. Biorefineries are facilities that convert biomass into material and energy products. Biorefineries are a key component of ensuring increased sustainability of the global...

Metabolic Engineering of Central Carbon Metabolism for Production of Isobutanol and other Higher Alcohol Biofuels in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
DownloadFall 2012
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was engineered for production of high-value alcohols including isobutanol and isopentanol. This strategy uses the host’s highly active valine amino acid biosynthetic pathway and diverts its 2-ketoacid intermediate for alcohol synthesis. A 2-ketoacid...

The Influence of High Temperature Pyrolysis Melt and Lignin on Cellulose Pyrolysis Chemistry: A First-principles based Investigation
DownloadFall 2023
Lignocellulosic biomass pyrolysis for biofuel production shows potential but is challenged with issues of bio-oil instability and low yield. To address these challenges, a bottom-up approach integrating reaction chemistry and transport within biomass particle during pyrolysis is crucial for...

Wang, Z., Goonewardene L. A., Mir, P. S., Mir, Z., Okine, E. K., Marx, T., Spener, D.
The objective was to determine if end-of-test residual metabolizable energy intake (RMEI) is correlated with RMEI values calculated earlier in the test on steers fed two forage (silage) or four forage-grain diets. As the days on test increased the variation in RMEI decreased in all diets. In all...

Phenotypic correlations of fatty acid composition among intramuscular, subcutaneous and intermuscular fat tissues in concentrate-fed beef cattle of differing genotypes
Download2009
Wang, Z., Aldai, N., Osoro, K., Dugan, M. E. R., Crews Jr, D. H., Li, C.
In an attempt to predict intramuscular fatty acid composition using easily accessible fat depots, between-tissue correlations were studied in 75 Asturiana de los Valles bulls with different levels of muscular hypertrophy, and 25 Asturiana de la Montaña bulls. Trans-18:1 in intramuscular fat was...

A NEW APPROACH TO MODEL FRICTION LOSSES IN THE WATER-ASSISTED PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION OF HEAVY OIL AND BITUMEN
DownloadSpring 2016
Water lubricated pipe flow technology is an economic alternative for the long distance transportation of viscous oils like heavy oil and bitumen. The lubricated flow regime involves an oil-rich core surrounded by a turbulent water annulus. Energy consumption associated with this type of pipeline...

A common problem in naturally fractured reservoirs (NFRs) is a lack of data caused by few wells; or at least, few wells with core or borehole images. Secondary data (such as seismic) can be used to improve predictions of fracture intensity in between the wells. Common geostatistical techniques...

Developing High Precision Heat Capacity Correlations for Organic Solids and Liquids - Extending to Biofuels and Sugars
DownloadSpring 2018
There is a great need for easily accessible and accurate physical property data in the heavy oil industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and other heavy molecule guided productions. In recent years, high precision predictive correlations for isobaric heat capacities of heavy and ill-defined...
