Structural component composition of Pacific Northwest grass-derived biomass : A survey

Creator:

Masrungson, Duangdao

Abstract:

The structural component compositions of thirty nine non-commercial Pacific Northwest grasses were analyzed in order to develop a database of the grasses that may have application in bioconversion processes. The samples were chosen based on near infrared reflectance (NIR) data that suggested this group of grasses, collectively, was representative of...

Analytical approach to the quantitative analysis of silicon in plants : its application to plant silica extraction

Creator:

Boone, Carmen E.

Abstract:

The literature available on the silica content of herbaceous biomass, and its relative mobility in leaching/extraction systems, includes studies that have employed several different methods for silica quantification. This makes comparison of the data difficult. The objective of this thesis research was to determine the quantitative relationships between the measured...
