Operationalizing BioSSbD: A safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework for biorefineries

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biorefineries are central to the transition toward a circular bioeconomy; however, their increasing scale and technological heterogeneity, and the integration of biological, chemical, and thermochemical processes introduce complex challenges related to safety, sustainability, and operational reliability. Existing Safe‐and‐Sustainable‐by‐Design

Sidestreams From Bioenergy and Biorefinery Complexes as a Resource for Circular Bioeconomy

, 2018
One of the main drivers for the establishment of biorefineries and the drive toward bioeconomy is the call for sustainability. However, the modern-day biorefinery must embrace on the concept of whole-crop approach with complete feedstock utilization and ...

A system dynamics‐based framework for bioenergy planning in sub‐Saharan Africa: integrating circular bioeconomy and Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Energy scarcity remains a persistent challenge in sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), where limited access to reliable, affordable, and clean energy constrains socioeconomic development. Biomass resources, including agricultural residues, forest waste, and waste from other biological sources, are widely available, but their use for modern energy ...

Circular economy assessment of biomethane value chain in Brazil

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract From the numerous opportunities to add value to biomass in Brazil, biomethane production in sugarcane mills presents significant potential. This study introduces a diagnostic framework grounded in circular economy (CE) principles to assess new biomethane projects, aligning with the strategic objectives of product diversification, full biomass ...

Towards Virtual Biorefineries [PDF]

, 2018
A key challenge for the future, biorefineries are challenged by supply and demand variability. Indeed, biorefineries structures are traditionally centralised, with static processes where inputs and outputs are strictly defined and cannot be adapted (regarding quantity, quality, purity, etc.).

Theoretical georeferenced potential for biomethane production in Brazil from organic waste, including logistics and cost aspects

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract One of the challenges for biomethane production in Brazil, as well as its use, is related to transportation logistics, owing to the lack of detailed studies of the entire supply chain at a national level, which includes all the stages from waste collection to transportation for its final use.

Development and evaluation of a microwave‐assisted continuous system for olive pomace oil extraction and in‐line esterification/transesterification

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This study developed and evaluated a preliminary continuous microwave‐assisted system integrating oil extraction from olive pomace and subsequent conversion into fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) in a single processing unit. A conventional microwave oven was adapted for continuous operation by incorporating magnetron power adjustment and a ...

Functional Diversity and Oleaginous Potential of Fungal Strains From Hawaiian Soil Ecosystems

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fungi represent an important but underexplored resource for microbial lipid production, including nutritionally valuable polyunsaturated fatty acids. Hawaiian soils, shaped by volcanic parent materials and strong environmental gradients, provide a unique setting for discovering functionally diverse fungal strains with distinct metabolic traits.
