payback time for soil carbon and Sugar Cane ethanol
Nature Climate Change, 2014Co-Authors: Francisco Fujita De Castro Mello, Carlos Eduardo Pellegrino Cerri, Christian A Davies, Michele N Holbrook, Keith Paustian, Stoecio Malta Ferreira Maia, Marcelo Valadares Galdos, Martial BernouxAbstract:Sugar Cane is increasingly cultivated for bioenergy. This work looks at the effects on the soil-carbon balance of converting native vegetation, pastures or existing cropland, to Sugar-Cane plantations in Brazil, the world’s largest producer. The findings of the study should help shape policies aimed at achieving more sustainable Sugar-Cane production in Brazil as demand for biofuels grows.

Sugar Cane stillage: a potential source of natural antioxidants
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2013Co-Authors: Emma Caderby, Stéphanie Baumberger, William Hoareau, Claire Fargues, Martine Decloux, Marie-noelle MaillardAbstract:Biorefinery of Sugar Cane is the first economic activity of Reunion Island. Some Sugar Cane manufactured products (juice, syrup, molasses) have antioxidant activities and are sources of both phenolic compounds and Maillard Reaction Products (MRP). The study aimed to highlight the global antioxidant activity of Sugar Cane stillage and understand its identity. Chromatographic fractionation on Sephadex LH-20 resin allowed the recovery of a MRP-rich fraction, responsible for 58 to 66% of the global antioxidant activity according to the nature of the Sugar Cane stillage (DPPH test), and a phenolic compounds-rich fraction for 37 to 59% of the activity. A good correlation was recorded between the antioxidant activity of the Sugar Cane stillage and its content in total reducing compounds amount (Folin-Ciocalteu assay), among them 2.8 to 3.9 g/L of phenolic compounds (in 5-caffeoylquinic acid equivalent). Preliminary experiments by HPLC-DAD-MS allowed to identify several free phenolic acids and gave clues to identify esters of quinic acids.
