Abstract:
Background: Scarcity of resources, energy crisis, environmental pollution and climate
change are the central challenges that people will have to face in the years to come. Nowadays, agricultural,
food and industrial wastes are generated in large quantities, which poses a serious problem
in their management and disposal.
Objective: Feedstocks play a vital role in solving energy and environmental problems. All renewable,
biological substances that are used directly as fuel or converted into another form of energy or
fuel products are referred to as feedstocks. Biomass is also a clean and renewable feedstock option;
it can also be an excellent alternative to conventional fuels.
Methods: Renewable fuels are cleaner than traditional coal and petroleum, which reduce air pollution
and greenhouse gas emissions. Various methods could be used to achieve sustainable development
methods that can not only lead to better waste management but also generate industrially important
materials, chemicals, fuels and valuable end products from waste.
Results: This review provides an overview of the global scenario related to feedstock. In addition,
this paper examines the role of feedstock in solving energy and environmental issues.
Conclusion: This paper sheds light on the issue of environmental impact in order to achieve overall
sustainability. Finally, the merits of the feedstock technology prospects are addressed.
