Abstract

India is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. India has taken various initiatives to promote environmental sustainability. One of the important initiatives is increasing production and utilization of renewable energy by adopting ethanol biorefineries. Lignocellulosic biomass, which has a complex structure that can be broken down by enzymes to produce products like biodiesel, bioethanol, and various high-value products, is the major feedstock for biorefineries. The chapter presents a review of the various type of catalysts used in biorefineries and their positive impact on the environment.
