Challenges and opportunities of lignocellulosic biomass gasification in the path of circular bioeconomy
Abstract
The energy deficiency issues and intense environmental pollution have exacted the production of biofuels which are both renewable and sustainable and can be used to displace fossil fuels. The raw material for manufacturing second-generation biofuels is lignocellulosic biomass (LCB), which is widely available. LCB bioprocessing to produce high-value bio-based products has been the subject of attention. Biomass gasification is a powerful technology to achieve sustainable development goals, reduce reliance on fossil fuels, and reduce environmental concerns. This paper, will provide an overview of the LCB structures and the gasification process. Also, consistent with the concept of "circular bio-economy", this study focuses on the role of LCB gasification in the environmental impacts, and how gasification can be effective in the pathway of circular bio-economy. The current challenges to gasification and biorefinery and future perspectives are also presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
