Abstract:
A sustainable chemical industry cannot exist at scale without both sustainable feedstocks and feedstock supply chains to provide the raw materials. However, most current research focus is on producing the sustainable chemicals and materials. Little attention is given to how and by whom sustainable feedstocks will be supplied. In effect, we have put the bioproducts cart before the sustainable feedstocks horse. For example, bulky, unstable, non-commodity feedstocks such as crop residues probably cannot supply a large-scale sustainable industry. Likewise, those who manage land to produce feedstoc

Abstract:
Bioenergy is becoming increasingly relevant as an alternative to fossil fuels.

Abstract Five well-known biomass resources are used as feedstocks for biomass thermal power plants in the Philippines: rice husks (RH), sugarcane bagasse (SB), Napier grass (NG), coconut shells (CS), and Paraserianthes falcataria (PF). Given the complexity of socio-economic and biophysical systems and the multi-dimensionality of the sustainability goal, the best biomass feedstock was determined using TOPSIS (Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution), a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) that has gained popularity in the decision-making for sustainable energy.

Abstract:
Oil demand has risen steadily due to the growing industrialization and modernization of the world. In addition to rising costs, the supply of fossil fuels is also declining. These and many other concerns couple with food shortages have drawn attention of scientists to a substitute fuel that is generated from feedstocks that can be renewed. Biodiesel as an alternative fuel with a lot of expectations is produced using edible grown conventional vegetable oils such as sunflower, rapeseed, palm, and soybean. The production of biodiesel from edible oils has, meanwhile, worsened the existing competit

Abstract:
Microalgae and cyanobacteria are photosynthetic microorganisms’ sources of renewable biomass that can be used for bioplastic production. These microorganisms have high growth rates, and contrary to other feedstocks, such as land crops, they do not require arable land. In addition, they can be used as feedstock for bioplastic production while not competing with food sources (e.g., corn, wheat, and soy protein). In this study, we review the macromolecules from microalgae and cyanobacteria that can serve for the production of bioplastics, including starch and glycogen, polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs

Lyocell man-made cellulosic fibres (L-MMCF) have been commercially available since the mid-1990’s, with the typical feedstock prepared from tree pulp or cotton linters. In recent years, there have been advancements in the utilisation of high alpha-cellulose agricultural biomass for L-MMCF feedstock. Industrial hemp stalks offer a unique opportunity for L-MMCF since hemp is considered an environmentally conscious crop that can also help to bridge the gap in worldwide cellulose shortages; additionally, industrial hemp stalks are high in alpha-cellulose, making this an ideal feedstock for L-MMCF

Abstract:
The growing interest in environmentally friendly and sustainable energy sources has led to the exploration of waste cooking oils (WCOs) as residual feedstocks for biofuel production under the circular economy approach. Considering that WCOs constitute a highly heterogenous and degraded feedstock, a pretreatment step is necessary to improve their quality, potentially enabling their conversion to biofuels in milder conditions. Particularly, WCOs are characterized by high acidity, moisture content, impurities, etc., highlighting the necessity for a systematic and easily manageable pretreatment me
