Abstract The global expansion of the bioenergy industry raises concerns, emphasizing need for careful evaluation and sustainable management. To facilitate this, life cycle assessments beyond greenhouse gas emissions energy balance are essential, along with standardization assessment methodologies to enable meaningful comparisons. Here, we review assessment, chemical aspects, policy implication production. We discuss in terms concepts, methods, impacts, gases, land use, water consumption, bioethanol, biodiesel, biogas, techno-economic analysis. Chemical aspects comprise reaction processes means improve efficiency. Concerning policies, tools, frameworks that encourage production presented. found carbon dioxide removal ranges from 45 99% various processes. also emphasizes importance chemistry advancing a more secure future.

It is a truism by now that the combustion of fossil fuels has execaerbated climate change, and its repercussions. Biomass in pelletised form, will emerge as substitutes, circular bioeconomies future. This brief review focuses on utilisation agricultural residues raw materials for pellets, explores aspects sustainability – socio-cultural, economic, environmental, techno-functional 20-plus peer-reviewed articles selected purpose using Scopus with set search-phrases. The are case studies dated between 2012 to 2023, tracing their provenance different countries world Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, Greece, India, Italy, Mexico, Peru, Spain, Thailand, Türkiye, Zambia, etc. Among many gleanings which reported this review, some deserve mention here abstract. social aspect not been studied much economic environmental. emphasize importance adapting pelleting process properties agricultural/horticultural prevalent local conditions. encouraging note there surfeit (corn, coffee, quinoa, beans, oats, wheat, olives, tomatoes, pomegranates, grapes, reviewed) can be valorised also combination in-vogue forestry wastes. more advisable if status quo open burning such fields. journey towards sustainable development goals (SDGs) aided investments biorefinery-projects, SDG 17 extremely vital success collaboration cooperation among several stakeholders around world. though based only from world, an in-depth analysis promises interest decision-makers sustainability-specialists keen contributing transition bioeconomy.

Biomass is currently the most widespread form of renewable energy, and its exploitation constantly increasing due to concerns about major impact fossil fuel consumption, in terms climate change, global warming their negative on human factor. can be transformed using modern technologies into solid, liquid, gaseous fuels. One widely used biomass biofuels wood pellets. Pellets obtained from woody represent a very successful energy source, characteristics that include high density, calorific value, low moisture content, but also ease storage transport. Romania's pellet industry has recorded significant growth demand for green energy. Investment technology improves production efficiency enhances competitiveness international markets. However, fluctuations raw material prices such as transportation costs content often affect profit margins. Improving infrastructure continued investment research development are crucial strengthening Romania’s position market. In this context, purpose article present an analysis Romanian market industry.

Useful disposal of industrial waste and biomass remains is increasingly relevant for Ukrainian enterprises. The purpose this article to find additional opportunities the production products with greater added value by processing residues biochar. World prices biochar are quite high, much higher than use biocoals as fuel, around 800 EUR/t, maximum up 1,800 EUR/t. main technical characteristics price offers equipment from nine manufacturers China, Germany, Finland, Norway Netherlands were analyzed. results feasibility study sunflower husks on a technological line an input productivity 5 t/h one vegetable oils plants presented. As equipment, drum-type pyrolyzer heated synthesis gas, formed during thermochemical decomposition biomass, was considered. Byproducts also bioacetic acid tar oil. financial indicators in case export attractive enough implementation. estimated simple payback period when using granulated husk about 4 years at 650 EUR/t less year When non-granulated husk, 3 years, even 450 Possible risks implementation uncertainty regarding market demand sales biochar, quality requirements ability considered provide them, insufficient information yield various well lack experience. Enterprises interested such project recommended conduct trial batch their raw materials similar advance, determine share its characteristics, search potential buyers discuss possible prices.
