Innovation Insights

Whole crop biorefinery

A whole crop biorefinery harnesses and valorises the entire biomass using diverse technologies and processes - densification, pyrolysis, carbon activation, gasification, combustion, anaerobic digestion, fermentation, solid-state fermentation, extraction,  purification etc.

A well thought out whole crop biorefinery could thus be a sustainable approach to get the most out of any biomass feedstock.
