1 Agrobioenergie: le filiere, l agricoltura, l ambiente, le utilizzazioni Bologna, Archiginnasio, 20 February, 2015 BIOFUELS AS A PART OF AN INTEGRATED AND MULTIPURPOSE BIOREFINERY FOR A MORE SUSTAINABLE EXPLOITATION OF BIORESOURCES Fabio Fava School of Engineering, Alma Mater Studiorum-Università di Bologna & Italian Representative, Horizon2020 Societal Challenge 2 European Bioeconomy Challenges: Food Security, Sustainable Agriculture and Forestry, Marine, Maritime and Inland Water Research & JTI BBI ( fabio.fava@unibo.it)

2 Integration in terms of transformation scheme (a) BIODIESEL

3 Integration in terms of transformation scheme (b) Proper enzymes and/or microbes in suitable biotech processes Physical & biochemical treatment Non Chemical food pre-treatment Crops, Sugars Agro-food Byproducts, Lipids, Proteins residues other chemicals and surplus Fatty acids, aminoacids,phenols antioxidants, fibers, pigments,.., water, Food Cosmetics C h e m i c a l c o n v e r s i o n Biospecialties Food ingredients Pharmaceuticals Fine chemicals Biomaterials Biopolymers Lubricants,Fibers Pigments,Proteins Base Chemicals Organic acids I & II Metabolites Biofuels Methane, Hydrogen Food Fine chemicals Pharma Cosmetics Chemical Textile Energy Bulk Fuels chemicals 3 Chemical Scoma et al (2014) Critical Rev Biotechnology.
