Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract Anaerobic digestion can be an alternative method for treating wastewater from second‐generation biorefineries while simultaneously producing biogas. However, the feasibility of the process and key operational parameters by which wastewater produced in lignocellulosic biorefineries affects reactor performance remain poorly understood.

Efficiency Improvement in Sugar Mills through Bagasse Gasification
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2021 Biomass energy is useful in mitigating greenhouse gases as biomass growth captures CO2 from the atmosphere. This captured CO2 is eventually released upon the use of these biomass feedstocks, leading to a short duration carbon cycle. One prominent biomass
