Biorefinery is a facility that converts biomass into bioenergy and bio-based products. Biorefineries can provide a variety of chemicals by fractionating an initial raw material (biomass) into numerous intermediates, such as carbohydrates, proteins, and triglycerides, that can then be further processed into value-added products. The use of biomass as feedstock leads to low emissions of pollutants or hazardous compounds, thus minimizing harmful effects on the environment.
The biorefinery market represents the annual capacity of major companies to produce bioenergy (especially biofuels) and bio-based products. The regions considered for the biorefinery market study include North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World (RoW).
