The role of ionic liquid pretreatment and recycling design in the sustainability of a biorefinery
A sugarcane to ethanol example
The use of lignocellulosic (LC) materials, especially residues, as feedstock in biorefinery applications is a promising alternative to the oil refinery production of fuels, power and chemicals, reducing the global warming potential (GWP) related to these activities. The conversio
