Abstract Second-generation (2G) sugar is the principal building block in biorefineries
producing sustainable fuels, green chemicals, and materials. Its production involves a pre …

Malic acid derived from fossil resources is currently applied in the food and beverage
industries with a medium global production capacity. However, in the transition from a fossil …

Ethanol production from sugarcane in Brazil is a well-established industry, with relatively
simple operations and high yield. The ethanol primarily serves as a renewable fuel blending …

One-third of food produced for human consumption is lost as waste along the food supply
chain. The food industry wastes contain carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and lignocellulosic …

The ever-increasing demand of food and feed along with enormous amounts of losses,
wastes, and discards from agricultural and food supply chain have caused numerous …

Sugarcane vinasse is the main waste stream of the Brazilian agroindustry. The typical
composition of sugarcane vinasse gives it a high polluting potential that implies the …

Currently used bioproduction systems for chemicals and fuels are primarily based on sugar-
containing substrates. They have inherent limitations regarding substrate sustainability and …

First-generation ethanol plants offer successful, commercial-scale bioprocesses that can, at
least partially, replace fossil fuels. They can act as platforms to integrate lignocelluloses …

Corn-based ethanol provides an opportunity to lower life cycle impacts in comparison to
fossil fuels. A novel biorefinery design is proposed, which avoids energy intensive treatment …

The biobutanol‐based biofuel fermentation is hindered by the challenge of inadequate
fermentation broth concentration and the azeotropic systems of water. The application of …
