Lignocellulosic Residues for Biorefineries

 Biorefineries
The biorefinery concept is an important strategy in the development of biomass usage. It is based on the productive biomass chain similar to the oil chain fuels, energy, materials, bulk chemicals, and fine chemicals are the final products with a large variation in their market value.

Biorefineries use a large number of conversion processes (chemical, biochemical, and thermochemical) as a result of the chemical diversity of biomass and the high content of oxygen and water.

The increase in the demand for bio-derived chemicals not only offers a great number of opportunities for green technologies and processes which use lignocellulosic biomass in biorefineries, applying the green chemistry principles.
