Artificial neural networks in valorization process modeling of lignocellulosic biomass

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 1849-1868, November/December 2022., 2022
Abstract Value‐added products such as biofuels, chemicals, enzymes, and many others can be prepared from lignocellulosic biomass (LCB). To achieve high yields of these value‐added products, powerful tools such as artificial neural networks (ANN) and adaptive neuro‐fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) can be utilized during process development.
