Environment Friendly Pretreatment Approaches for the Bioconversion of Lignocellulosic Biomass into Biofuels and Value-Added Products

An upsurge in global population and rapid urbanization has accelerated huge dependence on petroleum-derived fuels consequent environmental concerns owing to greenhouse gas emissions the atmosphere. integrated biorefinery uses lignocellulosic feedstock as raw material for production of renewable biofuels, other fine chemicals. The sustainable bio-economy industry would benefit greatly from effective use biomass obtained agricultural feedstocks replace petrochemical products. Lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose, extractives, which are essential components biomass, must be separated or upgraded into useful forms order fully realize potential biorefinery. development low-cost green pretreatment technologies with deconstruction is imperative an efficient bioprocess. abundance microorganisms along their continuous various degradative enzymes makes them suited environmentally friendly bioconversion agro-industrial wastes viable bioproducts. present review highlights concept biorefinery, its valorization by strategies biofuels biochemicals. major barriers challenges technologies, sustainability bioproducts, promising solutions alleviate those bottlenecks also summarized.
