“…However, other crops are also prominent, such as wheat, cassava, rice, banana, and oil palm. Processing these crops generates large amounts of solid residues, including in‐field or agricultural residues (straw, leaves, and foliage) and agro‐industrial processing residues (bagasse, bunches, and shells) with diverse composition and volume (Table ) …”

South America is a pivotal supplier of agricultural commodities for a growing world population. This large-scale production generates a substantial amount of lignocellulosic residue. Inadequate disposal of this material can lead to putrefaction and leaching, and can attract insects and rodents. Solid residues can be treated by incineration or composting -both causing greenhouse gas emissions. Biotransformation of lignocellulosic residues into valuable products has been proposed as a more sophisticated alternative to burning. However, pretreatment steps are necessary to obtain fermentable sugars for biological or thermochemical transformation into value-added products. In this review, we noted trends in lignocellulosic biomass generation and potential uses, with special attention to the procedures necessary for the generation of fermented products and bio-oil. This survey pointed out that sugarcane bagasse, cereal straws, bananas, and oil-palm biomass can generate about 900 million tonnes of biomass by 2025. Based on production data from several researchers it was estimated that these raw materials have the potential for annual production of more than 550 million tonnes of fermentable sugars (i.e., glucose and xylose), 670 million tonnes of bio-oil, or 4000 TWh of thermal energy. We describe procedures and strategies for the conversion of these residues to produce higher value-added biomolecules and to promote more sustainable application of lignocellulosic biomass

“…De acuerdo con las distintas categorías de impacto que se evaluaron usando el software SimaPro, se concluye que la extracción de aceite crudo de palma africana es la actividad de mayor impacto ambiental. Una vez reconocidas las cargas ambientales que genera la producción de biodiesel es indispensable establecer una toma de decisiones que impliquen a la disminución de los mismos mediante planes de manejo ambiental para los distintos procesos involucrados en la producción de biodiesel (B10) y darle un valor agregado a los coproductos generados (Tan et al, 2016;Martínez, 2017).…”

La producción de biodiesel a partir de aceite vegetal derivado de palma africana requiere diferentes procesos los cuales podrían provocar daños ambientales, como las emisiones atmosféricas, la acidificación, la desertificación y el vertido de aguas residuales, que contribuyen al cambio climático. En este trabajo se realiza el análisis del ciclo de vida (ACV) para la producción de biodiesel a partir de aceite vegetal, utilizando la metodología de la norma técnica ISO 14044, para lo cual fue necesario realizar un análisis de inventario considerando las materias primas y la energía para cada proceso. El análisis del ciclo de vida "de la cuna a la puerta", busca la evaluación de impactos ambientales mediante el uso del software SimaPro permitiendo identificar las fases con mayor impacto, además se generan recomendaciones para optimizar la cadena de producción y mitigación de las cargas medioambientales relevantes. Según la evaluación del ciclo de vida usando la metodología ISO 14044 para las diferentes categorías de impacto que se evaluaron, se concluye que la actividad con el mayor impacto ambiental es la extracción de aceite de la palma. Hay cargas favorables para el medio ambiente que se producen por la recirculación de insumos como el metanol; asimismo, en la fase de reacción, se generó glicerina, este subproducto se utiliza en la industria farmacéutica.

“…In the oil palm plantation, the major biomass wastes are trunks and oil palm fronds [1]. OPF consists primarily of lignocellulosic components, i.e, cellulose (49,8%), hemicellulose (23,5%) and lignin (20,5%) [2][3][4]. The rising consciousness on the environmental implications has led to the research on alternative biochemical approach to utilize OPF as an alternative material for pyrolysis to produce liquid smoke.…”

Oil palm frond is a lignocellulose material, by pyrolysis, it will produce liquid smoke which have many advantages because of the compounds, such as acetic acid, carbonyls and phenolics contained in it. The pyrolysis of oil palm fronds in this study carried out at temperatures 400 °C, 500 °C, and 600 °C for 40 minutes, 90 minutes, and 120 minutes. There were 3 parameters observed in this study, they were acetic acid, phenolics and carbonyl contents which were analyzed by GC-MS instrument. The results of the study showed that the different temperatures and times of pyrolysis affected the content of chemical components in liquid smoke and acetic acid was the most dominant component obtained in the liquid smoke. The highest acetic acid content in the liquid smoke obtained was 92,30% at pyrolysis temperature of 500 °C for 120 minutes. Meanwhile, the highest total phenolic content obtained was 7,32% at pyrolysis temperature of 600 °C for 120 minutes and the highest carbonyl content obtained was 32,56% at the pyrolysis temperature of 400 °C for 60 minutes
