Alarming environmental impacts have been resulted across the globe due to the recovery and consumption of fossil fuels. The elevated global carbon footprint has paved the way to an alternative to combat the prevalent pollution. On the other hand, the fossil-based plastics produced from the byproducts of petroleum remain intact in the environment leading to pollution. Fossil abated bioproducts are in high demand due to the increase in pollution. This call to utilize feedstock for simultaneous production of biologically useful products through carbon capture utilisation where the leftover carbon-rich substrate is converted into usable chemicals like bioplastics, methanol, urea and various other industrially essential components. The present review extensively focuses on the research and economic perspectives of an integrated biorefinery and addresses technical breaches, bottlenecks, and efficient strategies for the simultaneous production of biohydrogen and polyhydroxyalkanoates.
