The biorefinery concept is considered as one of the research cornerstones in the last years
and as the best option to transform the different biomass systems into value-added products …

Recently, there has been a growing interest in the development of cost‐effective
technologies for the production of biofuels. A common approach to biofuel research is to …

This is a review of work on the potential of biorefineries. First, it considers the concept of a
refinery, the differences between biomass and oil, and the advantages of a biorefinery over …

In order to promote the implementation of biorefineries, IEA Bioenergy Task 42 presents a
basis of classifying biorefinery concepts and provides an overview of available concepts …

Sustainable biomass valorization, as agricultural and forestry wastes, and the development
of conversion processes could bring additional benefits like solving the residue disposal …

Biomass valorization is an important issue which could be significant in the reduction of the
global dependence on fossil fuels. This chapter will focus on the overview of pathways for …

As the range of feedstocks, process technologies and products expand, biorefineries will
become increasingly complex manufacturing systems. Biorefineries and Chemical …

Biorefineries are facilities for the production of fuels and chemicals from biomass, which can
tackle the increasing emissions of carbon dioxide. In this paper, we formulate a systematic …

The biorefining of biowaste is an upcoming novel strategy, but is mostly still in its conceptual
phase. Biowaste biorefineries would allow (rural) communities to convert their biowaste into …

The overexploitation of resources, the increase of the world population and the trend of
consumption based on “use and throw away” is causing an increasing pressure on waste …
