| Abstract | The utilization of lignocellulosic biomass for the generation of diverse value-added biochemicals and biofuels is crucial in modern biorefineries and bioenergy initiatives, contributing significantly to the pursuit of a climate-neutral future. Agricultural, forest and industrial sources of lignocellulosic biomass serve as exceptionally renewable precursors in biorefinery processes. In spite of its abundance, the effective breakdown of biomass poses a significant challenge. Thus, it is essential to integrate various unit processes, including biochemical, thermochemical, physical, enzymatic and catalytic conversion, to generate a wide array of bio-based products. Intensive integration of these processes not only enhances yield and reduces reaction time but also proves to be economically efficient. Furthermore, these process integration approaches may contribute to the establishment of a circular bioeconomy through biorefineries, effectively reducing both bioresource waste and greenhouse gas emissions. This review offers fundamental insights into biomass and its chemistry, with a detailed discussion on lignocellulosic conversion systems. It explores how integrating conversion processes can facilitate the transition toward a circular economy. Additionally, it summarizes the challenges and prospects associated with advancing integrated biorefineries and circular economy principles to achieve complete biomass valorization. |
