Abstract
A new alternative for hydrodynamic cavitation-assisted pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse was proposed, along with a simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation (SSCF) process performed in interconnected columns. Influential variables in the pretreatment were evaluated using a statistical design, indicating that an ozone flow rate of 10 mg min-1 and a pH of 5.10 resulted in 86 % and 72 % glucan and xylan hydrolysis yields, respectively, in the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis process. Under these optimized conditions, iron sulfate (15 mg L-1) was added to assess Fenton pretreatment, resulting in glucan and xylan hydrolysis yields of 92 % and 71 %, respectively, in a material pretreated for 10 min. In SSCF, ethanol volumetric productivities of 0.33 g L-1 h-1 and of 0.54 g L-1 h-1 were obtained in batch and fed-batch operation modes, achieving 26 g L-1 of ethanol in 48 h in the latter mode.

Abstract
This study evaluated innovative approaches for the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass. More specifically, assays were performed to evaluate the supplementation of the commercial cellulolytic cocktail Cellic® CTec2 (CC2) with LPMO (GcLPMO9B), H2O2, or cello-oligosaccharide dehydrogenase (CelDH) FgCelDH7C in order to boost the LPMO action and improve the saccharification efficiency of biomass into monosaccharides. The enzymatic hydrolysis was carried out using sugarcane bagasse pretreated by hydrodynamic cavitation-assisted oxidative process, 10% (w/w) solid loading, and 30 FPU CC2/g dry biomass. The results were compared in terms of sugars release and revealed an important influence of the supplementations at the initial 6 h of hydrolysis. While the addition of CelDH led to a steady increase in glucose production to reach 101.1 mg of glucose/g DM, accounting for the highest value achieved after 72 h of hydrolysis, boosting the LPMOs activity by the supplementation of pure LPMOs or the LPMO co-substrate H2O2 were also effective to improve the cellulose conversion, increasing the initial reaction rate of the hydrolysis. These results revealed that LPMOs play an important role on enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose and boosting their action can help to improve the reaction rate and increase the hydrolysis yield. LPMOs-CelDH oxidative pairs represent a novel potent combination for use in the enzymatic hydrolysis of lignocellulose biomass. Finally, the strategies presented in this study are promising approaches for application in lignocellulosic biorefineries, especially using sugarcane bagasse as a feedstock.

Abstract
Hydrodynamic cavitation is a new technology used for the treatment of wastewater. Landfill leachates contain a large variety of organic pollutants and inorganic matter, with recalcitrant and bio-refractory compounds. The present study was designed to evaluate the effect of hydrodynamic cavitation on landfill leachate quality indices. Three experimental designs were proposed. First, the influence of collection climate on leachate quality characteristics was analyzed. Second, the best cavitation time was chosen, which promoted the greatest reduction in the effluent pollutant load. Finally, the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) concentration was evaluated as an adjuvant in the cavitation process. A model TEKMASH TEK-1SL equipment was used. This cavitation unit operated with a flow rate of 30 m3 h−1, a temperature of 75 °C, and an inlet pressure of 3 bar. The cavitation chamber was of the annular flow type. The statistical analyses were run through ANOVA and Tukey's test, with significance α = 0.05. The response variables for the factors were biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC) and total suspended solids (TSS). An influence of the climatic condition on the leachate quality parameters was found, and the difference was marked in COD. In all cases, both for the cavitation process and for the cavitation-oxidant scheme, there was a reduction of 23%–51% BOD5, 30%–53% COD, 12%–21% TOC and 100% removal in TSS. In a 30-minute treatment, the highest COD removal percentage was reached, corresponding to 53.20%. Furthermore, a 200 ppm concentration of hydrogen peroxide enhanced the reduction of BOD5 and COD with proportions of 51.55% and 38.21%, respectively. Hydrodynamic cavitation offers advantages in the treatment of wastewater and can be used as an independent technique or as a hybrid method. Hydrodynamic cavitation is a useful and efficient technology for treating leachate. The annular flow in the reactor (geometry) shows good cavitation performance. Hybrid treatment with cavitation and H2O2, improves the reduction of BOD5 and COD.

Abstract
Recently, the hydrodynamic cavitation (HC)-based pretreatment has shown high effectiveness in laboratories and even in industrial productions for conversion of lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) into value-added products. The pretreatment capability derives from the extraordinary conditions of pressures at ∼500 bar, local hotspots with ∼5000 K, and oxidation (hydroxyl radicals) created by HC at room conditions. To promote this emerging technology, the present review summarizes the recent advances in the HC-based pretreatment of LCB. The principle of HC including the sonochemical effect and hydrodynamic cavitation reactor is introduced. The effectiveness of HC on the delignification of LCB as well as subsequent fermentation, paper production, and other applications is evaluated. Several key operational factors (i.e., reaction environment, duration, and feedstock characteristics) in HC pretreatments are discussed. The enhancement mechanism of HC including physical and chemical effects is analyzed. Finally, the perspectives on future research on the HC-based pretreatment technology are highlighted.

Abstract
Environmental problems due to utilization of fossil-derived materials for energy and chemical generation has prompted the use of renewable alternative sources, such as lignocellulose biomass (LB). Indeed, the production of biomolecules and biofuels from LB is among the most important current research topics aiming to development a sustainable bioeconomy. Yet, the industrial use of LB is limited by the recalcitrance of biomass, which impairs the hydrolysis of the carbohydrate fractions. Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) and Advanced Oxidative Processes (AOPs) has been proposed as innovative pretreatment strategies aiming to reduce process time and chemical inputs. Therefore, the underlying mechanisms, procedural strategies, influence on biomass structure, and research gaps were critically discussed in this review. The performed discussion can contribute to future developments, giving a wide overview of the main involved aspects.

Abstract
Population increase and industrialization has resulted in high energy demand and consumptions, and presently, fossil fuels are the major source of staple energy, supplying 80% of the entire consumption. This has contributed immensely to the greenhouse gas emission and leading to global warming, and as a result of this, there is a tremendous urgency to investigate and improve fresh and renewable energy sources worldwide. One of such renewable energy sources is biogas that is generated by anaerobic fermentation that uses different wastes such as agricultural residues, animal manure, and other organic wastes. During anaerobic digestion, hydrolysis of substrates is regarded as the most crucial stage in the process of biogas generation. However, this process is not always efficient because of the domineering stableness of substrates to enzymatic or bacteria assaults, but substrates' pretreatment before biogas production will enhance biogas production. The principal objective of pretreatments is to ease the accessibility of the enzymes to the lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose which leads to degradation of the substrates. Hence, the use of pretreatment for catalysis of lignocellulose substrates is beneficial for the production of cost-efficient and eco-friendly process. In this review, we discussed different pretreatment technologies of hydrolysis and their restrictions. The review has shown that different pretreatments have varying effects on lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose degradation and biogas yield of different substrate and the choice of pretreatment technique will devolve on the intending final products of the process.

Abstract
Residual biomass from agri-food production chain and forestry are available in huge amounts for further valorisation processes. Delignification is usually the crucial step in the production of biofuels by fermentation as well as in the conversion of cellulose into high added-value compounds. High-intensity ultrasound (US) and hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) have been widely exploited as effective pretreatment techniques for biomass conversion and in particular for cellulose recovery. Due to their peculiar mechanisms, cavitational treatments promote an effective lignocellulosic matrix dismantling with delignification at low temperature (35–50 °C). Cavitation also promotes cellulose decrystallization due to a partial depolymerization. The aim of this review is to highlight recent advances in US and HC-assisted delignification and further cellulose recovery and valorisation.

Abstract
One way of satisfying increased market demand and simultaneously achieving a reduced environmental load in the industrial paper production is the use of fibrous agricultural residues. The aims of this study were i) to investigate the effect of alkaline - hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) pre-treatments on the delignification of Miscanthus × giganteus stalks (MGS) and ii) establishing the suitability of MGS as feedstock and their exploitation in pulp and paper manufacturing. It was demonstrated that the proposed treatment is an efficient delignification method for the non-wood fiber sources, such as miscanthus. A significant outcome of this work was the observation that HC treatment preserved the fibres lengths and surface quality of raw MGS, but at the same time increased the amount of kinked and curled fibers present in cavitated miscanthus fibers. The average miscanthus fiber length was found to be relatively short at 0.45 (±0.28) mm, while the slenderness ratio, the flexibility coefficient and Runkel ratio values were calculated to be 28.13, 38.16 and 1.62, respectively. The estimated physical properties of MGS pulp hand-sheets were 24.88 (±3.09) N m g-1 as the tensile index, 0.92 (±0.06) kPa m2 g-1 as the burst index and 4.0 (±0.37) mN m2 g-1 as the tear index. Overall the current work demonstrated effective use of hydrodynamic cavitation for improving the processing in pulp and paper manufacturing.

Mature Landfill Leachate as a Medium for Hydrodynamic Cavitation of Brewery Spent Grain. ENERGIES 2021. [DOI: 10.3390/en14041150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
In this study, we evaluate the usefulness of mature landfill leachate (MLL) as a carrier allowing hydrodynamic cavitation (HD) of brewery spent grain (BSG). The HD experiments were conducted using an orifice plate with a conical concentric hole of 3/10 mm (inlet/outlet diameter) as a constriction in the cavitation device. The initial pressure was 7 bar and the number of recirculation passes through the cavitation zone reached 30. The results showed that complex organic matter was degraded and solubilized when cavitating the MLL and BSG mixture. The biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) increased by 45% and the BOD5/total chemical oxygen demand (COD) ratio increased by 69%, whereas the COD, total solids, and nutrient concentration dropped noticeably. However, Fourier transform infrared photoacoustic spectroscopy (FTIR-PAS) revealed the generation of possibly toxic HD byproducts such as aromatic compounds. This seems to indicate that MLL could not be regarded as a suitable carrier for BSG cavitation.

Abstract
There are three essential steps involved in bioethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks. They are pretreatment, hydrolysis, and fermentation process. Among them, biomass pretreatment is an expensive and energy-intensive process used to remove the lignin and make the feedstock amenable for bioethanol production. The hydrodynamic cavitation can also be used for biomass pretreatment process. In order to improve the effectiveness of biomass pretreatment, a combination of any two methods of physical, chemical, and biological pretreatment can be used. A combination of the hydrodynamic cavitation pretreatment of biomass with the chemical or biochemical catalyst can be performed better than the individual pretreatment method. In this chapter, a protocol is describes the biomass pretreatment via a combined hydrodynamic cavitation with biocatalyst process.

Abstract
Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) is a green technology that has been successfully used to intensify a number of process. The cavitation phenomenon is responsible for many effects, including improvements in mass transfer rates and effective cell-wall rupture, leading to matrix disintegration. HC is a promising strategy for extraction processes and provides the fast and efficient recovery of valuable compounds from plants and biomass with high quality. It is a simple method with high energy efficiency that shows great potential for large-scale operations. This review presents a general discussion of the mechanisms of HC, its advantages, different reactor configurations, its applications in the extraction of bioactive compounds from plants, lipids from algal biomass and delignification of lignocellulosic biomass, and a case study in which the HC extraction of basil leftovers is compared with that of other extraction methods.

Abstract
Production of green chemicals and biofuels in biorefineries is the potential alternative for petrochemicals and gasoline in transitioning of petro-economy into bioeconomy. However, an efficient biomass pretreatment process must be considered for the successful deployment of biorefineries, mainly for use of lignocellulosic raw materials. However, biomass recalcitrance plays a key role in its saccharification to obtain considerable sugar which can be converted into ethanol or other biochemicals. In the last few decades, several pretreatment methods have been developed, but their feasibility at large-scale operations remains as a persistent bottleneck in biorefineries. Pretreatment methods such as hydrodynamic cavitation, ionic liquids, and supercritical fluids have shown promising results in terms of either lignin or hemicellulose removal, thus making remaining carbohydrate fraction amenable to the enzymatic hydrolysis for clean and high amount of fermentable sugar production. However, their techno-economic feasibility at industrial scale has not been yet studied in detail. Besides, nanotechnological-based technologies could play an important role in the economically viable 2G sugar production in future. Considering these facts, in the present review, we have discussed the existing promising pretreatment methods for lignocellulosic biomass and their challenges, besides this strategic role of nano and biotechnological approaches towards the viability and sustainability of biorefineries is also discussed.

Abstract
When liquids flow through a throttling element, the velocity increases and the pressure decreases. At this point, if the pressure is below the saturated vapor pressure of this liquid, the liquid will vaporize into small bubbles, causing hydraulic cavitation. In fact, a vaporization nucleus is another crucial condition for vaporizing, and particles contained in the liquid can also work as the vaporization nuclear. As a novel heat transfer medium, nanofluids have attracted the attention of many scholars. The nanoparticles contained in the nanofluids play a significant role in the vaporization of liquids. In this paper, the effects of the nanoparticles on hydraulic cavitation are investigated. Firstly, a geometric model of a perforated plate, the throttling element in this paper, is established. Then with different nanoparticle volume fractions and diameters, the nanofluids flowing through the perforated plate are numerically simulated based on a validated numerical method. The operation conditions, such as the ratio of inlet to outlet pressures and the temperature are the considered variables. Additionally, cavitation numbers under different operating conditions are achieved to investigate the effects of nanoparticles on hydraulic cavitation. Meanwhile, the contours are extracted to research the distribution of bubbles for further investigation. This study is of interest for researchers working on hydraulic cavitation or nanofluids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Renewable liquid biofuel production will reduce crude oil import of India. To displace the huge quantity of fossil fuels used for energy production, this research was focused on utilization of unexploited low-cost agricultural residues for biofuel production. Corncobs are a byproduct of corn processing industry, and till now it is not utilized for biofuel production, eventhough it has high lignocellulosic concent. In this study, combined hydrodynamic cavitation and enzymatic (HCE) method was evaluated as a pretreatment method of corncob for biofuel production. The most significant process parameters namely (i) enzyme loading (3-10 U g-1), (ii) biomass loading (2.5-5.0%), and (iii) duration (5-60 min) were optimized and their effects on combined HCE pretreatment of corncob was studied through response surface methodology for lignin reduction, hemicellulose reduction and cellulose increase. RESULTS The highest lignin reduction (47.4%) was obtained in orifice plate 1 (OP1) under the optimized conditions namely biomass loading at 5%, enzyme loading at 6.5 U g-1 of biomass, and reaction duration of 60 min. The above tested independent variables had a significant effect on lignin reduction. The cavitational yield and energy consumption under the above-mentioned optimized conditions for OP1 was 3.56 × 10-5 g J-1 and 1.35 MJ kg-1, respectively. CONCLUSIONS It is evident from the study that HCE is an effective technology and requires less energy (1.35 MJ kg-1) than other biomass pretreatment methods.

A new approach for bioethanol production from sugarcane bagasse using hydrodynamic cavitation assisted-pretreatment and column reactors. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2018; 43:219-226. [PMID: 29555278 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2018.01.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2017] [Revised: 01/17/2018] [Accepted: 01/20/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) was adopted to assist alkaline-hydrogen peroxide pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse (SCB). In the following condition: 0.29 M of NaOH, 0.78% (v/v) of H2O2, 9.95 min of process time and 3 bar of inlet pressure, 95.4% of digestibility of cellulosic fraction was achieved. To take the best use of the pretreated biomass, the overall process was intensified by way of employing a packed bed flow-through column reactor and thus enabling to handle a high solid loading of 20%, thereby leading to cellulose and hemicellulose conversions to 74.7% and 75%, respectively. In the fermentation step, a bubble column reactor was introduced to maximize ethanol production from the pretreated SCB by Scheffersomyces stipitis NRRL-Y7124, resulting in 31.50 g/L of ethanol, 0.49 g/g of ethanol yield and 0.68 g/L.h of productivity. All this showed that our HC-assisted NaOH-H2O2 pretreatment strategy along with the process intensification approach might offer an option for SCB-based biorefineries.

Abstract
In this study, sugarcane bagasse (SCB) pretreated with alkali assisted hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) was investigated for simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process for bioethanol production in interconnected column reactors using immobilized Scheffersomyces stipitis NRRL-Y7124. Initially, HC was employed for the evaluation of the reagent used in alkaline pretreatment. Alkalis (NaOH, KOH, Na2CO3, Ca(OH)2) and NaOH recycled black liquor (successive batches) were used and their pretreatment effectiveness was assessed considering the solid composition and its enzymatic digestibility. In SSF process using NaOH-HC pretreatment SCB, 62.33% of total carbohydrate fractions were hydrolyzed and 17.26g/L of ethanol production (0.48g of ethanol/g of glucose and xylose consumed) was achieved. This proposed scheme of HC-assisted NaOH pretreatment together with our interconnected column reactors showed to be an interesting new approach for biorefineries.
