Variety and Versatility
The Biofine process converts each fraction of naturally occuring lignocellulosic biomass and chemically converts these components to molecules of higher commercial value. Other compounds introduced into the process are simply carried through the process in the 'char' to be filtered out or combusted for power.
This is all achieved without separating - 'pre-fractionating' - the biomass into its constituent compounds.
The net result is we are able to draw from across the broad diversity of recurring and renewable cellulosic feedstocks. Among these:
- Logging and forest residues
- Urban wood residues
- Wood processing residues (bark and sawdust)
- Fuel crops
- switch grass
- hybrid poplar
- hemp
- eucalyptus
- Agricultural crop residues
- corn stover
- sugar cane bagasse
- MRFed municipal solid waste
- Food wastes
- Waste paper (non-recyclable)
- Reclaimed paper
- Algae and seaweed crops
