Abstract |
The growing need for food and energy around the world, as well as the impending water stress due to global warming exacerbated by increasing anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, makes sound solutions for sustainable development essential. An alternative is the concept of polygeneration which, based on process intensification, makes it possible to simultaneously obtain several products, chemical or energy, from a single source, preferably renewable. This work aims to highlight the synergy between thermodynamics and chemical reaction in a polygeneration model "bioproducts-bioenergy-water (BBW)" whose two building blocks are illustrated, i.e., (i) solar desalination with power and hydrogen production as well as brine valorization and (ii) production of bioenergy (biodiesel-2G) and bioproducts (biolubricants) based on green circular economy. It is shown that scientific and technological building blocks where thermodynamics and chemical reaction successfully operate in synergy for enhancing process intensification are available to implement the triptych "BBW" that would secure the supply of vital human needs and thus preserve global stability. |
