Abstrakt: Lignocellulosic biomass is a raw material appropriate for obtaining a wide variety of value-added products through different technologies. In the oil palm agroindustry, only 10% of the total products are oils. The remaining 90% is represented by lignocellulosic biomass and effluents. As these residual materials have enormous potential to produce bioproducts, several strategies have been proposed to aggregate value for all plant constituents, further supporting the development of the oil palm industry. This review summarizes the advances in using lignocellulosic residues from the oil palm industry to obtain sugars, biomaterials, bio-oils, biofuels, and animal feed. Additionally, it presents and discusses the integration of mushroom-forming fungal cultivation on these lignocellulosic residues to enable value-added products such as enzymes, edible mushrooms, and animal feed. The technologies and products in development indicate the potential establishment of a biorefinery based on oil palm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
