Sugarcane Biorefinery, Technology and Perspectives is a book that examines biorefinery platforms capable of converting sugarcane into high-value products. It explores how understanding sugarcane chemical composition helps balance agricultural food supplies with energy demands.
The volume addresses the global sugar-energy sector, tracing industry by-products, energy cane development, and the environmental dilemmas surrounding agricultural land use. It also investigates pathways for renewable chemistry, including the production of second-generation ethanol.
By discussing technological road mapping for energy cane alongside practical processes such as converting vinasse into biogas, bioenergy, and biofertilizer, the text presents options for sustainable industrial development.
