To investigate the greenhouse gases emissions from paddy fields, methane and nitrous oxide emissions were estimated with the local measurement and the IPCC method during 1990–2006 in Taiwan. Annual methane emission ranged from 9001 to 14,980ton in the first crop season for 135,314–242,298ha...

Food waste is approximately one quarter of the total garbage in Taiwan. To investigate the feasibility of microbial conversion of food waste to multiple functional biofertilizer, food waste was mixed with bulking materials, inoculated with thermophilic and lipolytic microbes and incubated at...

To investigate the bioethanol production from sweet potato, the saccharification and fermentation conditions of co-immobilization of saccharolytic molds (Aspergillus oryzae and Monascus purpureus) with Saccharomyces cerevisiae were analyzed. The immobilized yeast cells showed that at 10% glucose...
