Renewable Biomass Utilization: A Way Forward to Establish Sustainable Chemical and Processing Industries

Lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks are promising alternatives to fossil fuels for meeting raw material needs of processing industries and helping transit from a linear circular economy thereby meet the global sustainability criteria. The sugar platform route in biochemical conversion process is one extensively studied methods, which consists four major steps: pretreatment, hydrolysis, fermentation, product purification. Each these steps has multiple challenges. Among them, challenges associated with pretreatment most significant overall because this expensive step it significantly affects efficiency all subsequent on sustainable valorization each component. However, development universal method cater types feedstock nearly impossible due substantial variations compositions structures biopolymers among feedstocks. In review, we have discussed some their chemicals requirements, effect composition deconstruction efficiencies. addition, resources availability intensification ideas lignocellulosic-based chemical industry been circularity standpoint.
