    • Cellulose Nanofibers from Olive Tree Pruning as Food Packaging Additive of a Biodegradable Film 

      Sánchez-Gutiérrez, Mónica; Bascón-Villegas, Isabel; Espinosa, E.; Carrasco, Elena; Pérez-Rodríguez, Fernando; Rodríguez, Alejandro (MDPI, 2021)
      A biodegradable packaging film containing cellulose nanofibers from olive tree pruning, a by-product of olives production, was obtained using a solvent casting method. Nanocellulose was added to polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to ...

    • Cocoa Mucilage as a Novel Ingredient in Innovative Kombucha Fermentation 

      Rodríguez-Castro, Rossy; Guerrero, Raquel; Valero, Antonio; Franco-Rodríguez, John; Posada-Izquierdo, Guiomar Denisse (MDPI, 2024)
      Cocoa tree plantations aim to harvest grains found in the cob to produce cocoa and chocolate. There has been a growing interest in valorizing the secondary components of the cocoa fruit, such as the peel, placenta, and ...

    • Glyceraldehyde production by photocatalytic oxidation of glycerol on WO3-based materials 

      Yu, Jie; Dappozze, Frederic; Martín-Gomez, Juan; Hidalgo-Carrillo, J.; Marinas, Alberto; Vernoux, Philippe; Caravaca, Ángel; Guillard, Chantal (Elsevier, 2021)
      Valorization of glycerol into high added-value products by photocatalysis can not only create good economic benefits, but also cater to the global low-carbon and energy-saving environmental protection needs. In this study ...

    • Production of Cellulose Nanofibers from Olive Tree Harvest—a Residue with Wide Applications 

      Sánchez-Gutiérrez, Mónica; Espinosa, E.; Bascón-Villegas, Isabel; Pérez-Rodríguez, Fernando; Carrasco, Elena; Rodríguez, Alejandro (MDPI, 2020)
      With the aim of identifying new sources to produce cellulose nanofibers, olive tree pruning biomass (OTPB) was proposed for valorization as a sustainable source of cellulose. OTPB was subjected to a soda pulping process ...

    • Rentabilidad del compostaje del alperujo como una alternativa bioeconómica 

      Polonio Baeyens, David; Villanueva, Anastasio J.; Gómez-Limón, José A. (Asociación Interprofesional para el Desarrollo Agrario, 2024)
      La bioeconomía circular está muy presente en la agenda política actual, como consecuencia de la preocupación de la sociedad por el medio ambiente. Este nuevo paradigma se presenta como una oportunidad para el sector del ...

    • Supramolecular solvent extraction of bioactives from coffee cherry pulp 

      Torres Valenzuela, Laura Sofía; Ballesteros-Gómez, A.; Rubio Bravo, Soledad (Elsevier, 2020)
      The potential of supramolecular solvents (SUPRAS) is investigated for the extraction of bioactive compounds from coffee cherry pulp, one of the major by-products generated in the coffee industry. SUPRAS made up of hexagonal ...

    • Valorization of spent coffee grounds by supramolecular solvent extraction 

      Torres Valenzuela, Laura Sofía; Ballesteros-Gómez, A.; Sanin, Alejandra; Rubio Bravo, Soledad (Elsevier, 2019)
      In this study, we assess the potential of supramolecular solvents (SUPRAS) for valorization of spent coffee grounds (SCG). SUPRAS, made up of self-assembled amphiphilic aggregates dispersed in an aqueous or hydro-organic ...
