“…In turn, the amount of lignin turned out to be independent of the type of fertilization. The lowest bioethanol content, 7.11 g•L −1 , was found for hemp fertilized with NPK, and the highest, 9.93 g•L −1 , for hemp fertilized with P and K, for which the ethanol yield converted to straw yield was 2.7 m 3 •ha −1 [88]. In other studies about the optimizing chemical and enzymatic treatment of Henola's biomass, an ethanol content of 10.51 g•L −1 was obtained [89].…”

“…However, effective technology for processing lignocellulosic raw materials into biofuels remains a problem. Developing methods of obtaining biofuels from waste hemp biomass should contribute to wasteland management, reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, and provide effective technological solutions, along with improving the stability of fuel prices in the future [71,88,103]. It would also be invaluable to standardize the regulations on the cultivation and processing of hemp in the European Union countries, which would greatly facilitate cooperation between farmers and entrepreneurs or, for example, the creation of hemp cooperatives in border areas.…”

Hemp cultivation is becoming increasingly common worldwide, although it still raises many concerns. These plants are gaining popularity due to their versatility and the ability to use virtually every part of them in almost all economic branches. Hemp products are sought after and appreciated by consumers. The cultivation of hemp does not place a large burden on the environment. All this makes hemp an ideal plant in terms of land use, which is closely related to the idea of sustainable development. This paper describes the legal aspects of hemp cultivation in Europe and briefly presents its breeding and cultivation. The possibilities of their versatile use are presented, with particular reference to biofuel production. Moreover, the suitability for ecological cultivation, description of the economic and social aspects of industrial hemp cultivation, as well as future outlooks, are also described.

“…After processing, these fats can have a solid or liquid consistency, and they are sold as edible oils or used, for example, in confectionery [ 14 ], as well as for the production of paints and varnishes [ 15 ], medicines, cosmetics [ 16 ], engine lubrication [ 17 ], and renewable polymeric materials [ 18 ]. Plant-based oils can also be used in the energy sector, for example, as a biocomponent for conventional liquid fuels [ 7 , 19 ].…”

The popularity of hemp cultivation for industrial purposes has been steadily growing for many years. With the addition of products derived from these plants to the Novel Food Catalogue, maintained by the European Commission, a significant increase in interest in hemp food is also expected. The aim of the study was to determine the characteristics of hempseed, oil, and oil cake samples produced from experimental plots grown in different conditions. The research was conducted on the Henola variety, one of the newest and most popular varieties of hemp, recently bred for grain and oil. The content of bioactive compounds in grain and oil has been subjected to detailed chemical analyses in order to determine the effect of fertilization, the method of plant cultivation, and processing conditions on their quantity. The test results and the statistical analysis carried out showed a significant impact of the tested factors on the content of some of the tested bioactive compounds. The obtained results will help in the development of an effective method of cultivation for this hemp variety in order to maximize the content of the desired bioactive compounds per unit of cultivation area.

Waste Biomass Valor

This works aims to evaluate a process to convert residual medical Cannabis sativa stalks into medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoate (mcl-PHA), using chemical pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain sugars as a carbon source for a fermentation process with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Chemical composition analysis revealed a content of structural polysaccharides of 57.64%. Thermochemical pretreatments with 2% sulfuric acid or 2% sodium hydroxide were capable of partially removing hemicellulose and lignin, as well as increasing cellulose crystallinity. Pretreated biomass was subjected to hydrolysis using commercial cellulase cocktails Celluclast® 1.5 L and Cellic® CTec3. Acid pretreatment showed an adverse effect on hydrolysis yield of holocellulose, decreasing to 39.5%; compared to 44.4% of untreated biomass. Alkaline pretreatment increased degree of hydrolysis up to 73.3%. Shake flask fermentation of hydrolysate with Pseudomonas aeruginosa produced cell growth of 1.65 g/L and a mcl-PHA titer of 0.41 g/L. Extracted polymer presented characteristic FTIR bands for PHAs, glass transition temperature of − 50.8 °C, melting temperature of 48.9 °C, possibly allowing its use in the biomedical industry. The developed process represents a potential way to valorize Cannabis waste stalks, using alkaline pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis with Celluclast® 1.5 L and fermentation with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Further work should focus on improving yield of the obtained polyhydroxyalkanoate in fermentation, in order to improve industrial feasibility of the entire process and, in turn, increasing revenue of the medical Cannabis industry.
