Production routes to bio-acetic acid: life cycle assessment
Budsberg, Erik; Morales-Vera, Rodrigo; Crawford, Jordan T.; Bura, Renata; Gustafson, Rick (2020)Background: Similar to biofuels, numerous chemicals produced from petroleum resources can also be made from biomass. In this research we investigate cradle to biorefinery exit gate life cycle impacts of producing acetic ...

Techno-economic analysis of producing glacial acetic acid from poplar biomass via bioconversion
Morales-Vera, Rodrigo; Crawford, Jordan T.; Dou, Chang; Bura, Renata; Gustafson, Rick (2020)Most of the current commercial production of glacial acetic acid (GAA) is by petrochemical routes, primarily methanol carbonylation. GAA is an intermediate in the production of plastics, textiles, dyes, and paints. GAA ...
