IDENTIFICATION OF CELLULOSE-DEGRADING BACTERIA AND ASSESSMENT OF THEIR POTENTIAL VALUE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF BIOETHANOL FROM COCONUT OIL CAKE WASTE

Identification of Cellulose-Degrading Bacteria and Assessment of Their Potential Value for the Production of Bioethanol from Coconut Oil Cake Waste

Bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass is a highly promising alternative to rapidly reduce reliance on fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions.However, the use of lignocellulosic biomass is limited by the challenges of efficient degradation strategies.Given this need, Bacillus tropicus (B.tropicus) with cellulose degradation ability was isolate

Transit times from rainfall to baseflow in headwater catchments estimated using tritium: the Ovens River, Australia

Headwater streams contribute a significant proportion of the total flow to many river systems, especially during summer low-flow periods.However, despite their importance, the time taken for water to travel through headwater catchments and into the streams (the transit time) is poorly understood.Here, 3H activities of stream water are used to defin
