Description
Dear Colleagues,
All types of biomass, and their waste, comprised one the pillars of the preindustrial,
pre-fossil fuel, agriculture-based economies of the past. Traditional
practices of biomass waste management were applied, but not necessarily in a
sophisticated and efficient way, and included everything from agricultural activities
to food production, animal feed, natural fiber separation, and processing
of forest wood. The modern bioeconomy sector, however, includes new circular
economy energy and materials streams of added-value products, such as
gaseous, liquid and solid biofuels and bioenergy generation routes, and biochar
production, along with all the previously mentioned traditional products emerging
from the bioeconomy.
This Special Issue includes some of the latest bioenergy and biochar advancements
and their incorporation into a bioeconomy in transition. It focuses on
nature, properties, upgrading, and bioenergy generation processes from all types
of biomass waste and biochars originating from biomass waste. The multidisciplinarity
of bioenergy and biochar research is evident throughout the Special
Issue, highlighting the highly variable and tunable processes involved in
biomass handling, pre-processing, converting to biochar, and recovering energy.
