Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 1010-1026, July/August 2024.Abstract This study explores a novel approach that combines soil recovery with biofuel production, presenting a strategy that addresses the increasing demand for biofuels while sidestepping the food–fuel debate. It also introduces an innovative method for recovering heavy metals from soils through their translocation into the solid product of the ...
