Special issue “Lignocellulosic Biomass II”
2023
Rodríguez Pascual, Alejandro | Espinosa, Eduardo | Martín, Carlos
As a result of human population growth, the availability of residual lignocellulosic materials from agriculture, forestry, food- and wood-processing industries, and other waste streams is continuously increasing. The composition and abundance of lignocellulosic biomass make it a realistic option as feedstock for biorefineries, producing the bio-based fuels, materials, and chemicals required for the sustainable development of society without depending on fossil-based resources [1]. Lignocellulosic biomass represents a practically infinite feedstock source for satisfying the demands of the industry, and could thus contribute to achieving a carbon-neutral future and alleviating the current threats related to climate change. In previous collections, we compiled relevant contributions on the chemistry and technology of lignocellulosic biomass [2] and on the bioconversion of crop residues to biofuels and other bio-based products [3]. With this Special Issue, we present a new collection of articles dealing with cutting-edge topics in the field of lignocellulosic biomass.
