| Popis: | The use of biomass as an energy source has increased as far as it aims at providing sustainable energy alternatives and considerable reduction in agro-industrial and urban solid waste. Techniques employed for different types of biomass by biorefineries intend not only to add value to a bioproduct, but also to reduce environmental impact caused by industrial and agricultural residues. The coconut fruit shell residue, largely consumed in coastal regions, rich in fiber, lignin, cellulose and hemicelluloses, may be transformed through chemical, biochemical and thermochemical processes, into several bioproducts with proper energetic yield such as activated carbon, ethanol and biodiesel. This work was done through literature review, magazines and articles in order to analyse the energetic potential use of green dwarf coconut biomass (Cocos nucifera) by biorefineries as well as alternatives for reducing tons of fruit fibrous drupe waste commonly dumped in the environment |
