Space, time, and sustainability: The status and future of life cycle assessment frameworks for novel biorefinery systems

C. Vance et al.

Summary: For stakeholders and decision makers in the bioeconomy, having holistic, reliable, and accurate sustainability assessment methodologies is crucial. This review paper discusses the methodological challenges in assessing advanced multifunctional systems in the bioeconomy, such as biorefineries, including considerations on goal, scope, and allocation methods, land use, biogenic carbon and emissions, impacts assessed, simplification of feedstocks and processes, regionality, and future systems. The review also addresses challenges in capturing social and economic impacts, and highlights the importance of temporal factors, regional differences, and integrating multidimensional approaches. Various methodologies, such as exergetic LCIA, natural capital assessment, and supply chain modeling, can be used to address spatial considerations, while process modeling, system dynamics modeling, and consequential LCA can address dynamic variability. Extended LCC, extended LCIA, and MCDA can address challenges in multidimensional sustainability integration.

Techno-economic and environmental impact assessment of an olive tree pruning waste multiproduct biorefinery

Luis David Servian-Rivas et al.

Summary: This study focuses on the economic performance and environmental assessment of two biorefinery schemes using olive tree pruning waste as feedstock. The results show that both the multiproduct biorefinery scheme and the standalone production of antioxidants have positive economic performance and lower environmental impacts compared to the business-as-usual production of ethanol, xylitol, and antioxidants. This demonstrates that producing antioxidants from olive tree pruning waste is a promising alternative in terms of both process economics and environmental performance.

Drop-in fuel production from biomass: Critical review on techno-economic feasibility and sustainability

Hannah Kargbo et al.

Summary: This paper reviews the technological and economical feasibilities of producing sustainable drop-in fuel from lignocellulosic sources, highlighting the challenges and cost breakdown. Second generation biofuels have a greater potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to first generation biofuels. Gasification-FTS is considered the most promising technique for drop-in fuel production.

Integration of techno-economic analysis and life cycle assessment for sustainable process design - A review

Roksana Mahmud et al.

Summary: For sustainable design, integrating techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) is crucial for analyzing the relationships between technical, economic, and environmental performance. Integrated TEA-LCA tool can provide more information for trade-off analysis and reduce inconsistency in decision making. Further research is needed to develop methodological guidelines and software tools for integrated TEA-LCA analysis of emerging technologies at low TRLs.

Techno-economic and environmental evaluation of integrated mango waste biorefineries.

Tariro Tecla Manhongo et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the process feasibility, economic and environmental performances of mango processing waste biorefineries using three different scenarios. The results showed that co-producing pectin and polyphenols with bioethanol and bioenergy can improve profitability. However, a trade-off between profitability and environmental impacts should be considered in implementation decisions.

Improved value and carbon footprint by complete utilization of corncob lignocellulose

Bo Pang et al.

Summary: The study proposes a biorefinery strategy EXA based on the xylose industry, incorporating four stages to consecutively produce ethanol, xylose, and adhesive with a total carbon utilization of 79.6%. The key innovation is the direct production of high-quality adhesive from a lignin-rich liquid fraction, significantly improving process sustainability. Techno-economic analysis shows a revenue increase of over 110 times compared to current processes, with a lower CO2 footprint from an environmental perspective.

Environmental and economic analysis of low-moisture anhydrous ammonia (LMAA) as a pretreatment for cellulosic ethanol production

Maria da Conceicao Trindade Bezerra e Oliveira et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the economic and environmental impacts of using low-moisture anhydrous ammonia (LMAA) pretreatment for cellulosic ethanol production. Results showed that capital costs increased with higher feedstock processing volumes, and material costs (sugarcane bagasse, enzyme, yeast, and ammonia costs) had the most significant impact on overall annual operating costs.

Techno-economic Analysis and Life Cycle Assessment of an Integrated Wastewater-Derived Duckweed Biorefinery

Ozgul Calicioglu et al.

Summary: Duckweeds, efficient aquatic plants for wastewater treatment, offer high nutrient uptake capabilities and can be a valuable feedstock for biofuels and biochemicals. Studies have shown the technical feasibility of converting duckweed into useful products like ethanol, carboxylates, methane, and soil amendments in a biorefinery system. Challenges in large-scale application include high costs for pond construction and harvesting, while environmental impacts can be mitigated through efficient nutrient upcycling.
