Biomass feedstock represents one of the most valuable resource with which the energy problem worldwide can be tackled. Residual biomass feedstock are widely available in the world and could be effectively used to recover energy and biomaterials. After a short introduction to the different types of biomass feedstock and their most important properties, some of the possible pathways to energy are investigated. Illustrative examples about methane and hydrogen production from buffalo manure are presented. Eventually, recovery of matter is introduced showing the extraction of lactic acid from tomato pomace agro-food residues.

Abstract
Biomass feedstock represents one of the most valuable resource with which the energy problem worldwide can be tackled. Residual biomass feedstock are widely available in the world and could be effectively used to recover energy and biomaterials. After a short introduction to the different types of biomass feedstock and their most important properties, some of the possible pathways to energy are investigated. Illustrative examples about methane and hydrogen production from buffalo manure are presented. Eventually, recovery of matter is introduced showing the extraction of lactic acid from tomato pomace agro-food residues.File in questo prodotto:
