In recent years, biofuel production has attracted considerable attention, especially given the increasing worldwide demand for energy and emissions of greenhouse gases that threaten this planet. case, one possible solution is to convert biomass into green sustainable biofuel, which can enhance bioeconomy contribute economic development goals. Due being in large quantities containing high organic content, various sources such as food waste, textile microalgal agricultural waste sewage sludge have gained significant attention production. Also, technologies, including thermochemical processing, anaerobic digestion, fermentation bioelectrochemical systems, been extensively reported, achieve valorization through producing biofuels re-utilizing wastes. Nevertheless, commercial feasibility still determined, it unclear whether compete equally with other existing fuels market. The concept a circular economy promote environmentally friendly waste. This review comprehensively discusses state-of-the-art from perspectives associated it. Biofuel evaluated within framework bioeconomy. Further on integration approaches maximizing utilization are discussed, what could mean economy. More research related pretreatment machine learning should be conducted optimize process, increase yield make prices competitive.
