Abstract
The main purpose of this work was the development of a new citric acid assisted hydrothermal pretreatment of cocoa pod husks (CPH), which has not yet been exploited for pectin recovery. CPH́s pectin recovery was improved with concomitant production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) through efficient enzymatic hydrolysis of the solid fraction. A central composite experimental design was planned to analyze the effect of pretreatment conditions. Under optimal conditions at 120 °C, 10 min and 2% w.v-1, the recovery of pectin accounted for 19.3% of the biomass submitted to pretreatment with 52.2% of methyl esterification degree. Additionally, 51.9 mg.g-1 of XOS were also produced. The enzymatic conversion efficiency of the cellulosic fraction was 58.9%, leading to a production of 92.4 kg of glucose per ton of CPH. Great perspectives were observed in the implementation of CPH hydrothermal pretreatment for the production of value-added biomolecules under a biorefinery concept.

Abstract
The bioethanol production from the sweet potato variety BRS Cuia using three different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (LPB1-93, ATCC-26602, and CA-11) was carried out in this research. Comparative analyses of consumed sugar, ethanol yield, and productivity (in tons per hectare) increased along with the concentration of cells in the inoculum. Additionally, to verify the aromatic quality of a potential sweet potato distilled spirit, volatile organic compounds were analyzed. The results showed a yield of over 90% ethanol. It was observed that the sugar consumption and ethanol production rates can be increased with a higher initial concentration of cells. This resulted in higher concentrations of ethanol in shorter times. From 100 g of the sweet potato variety BRS Cuia, the highest concentration of ethanol obtained was 25.74 g L−1 using the LPB1-93 strain. The estimated bioethanol production is about 10,000 L ha−1, with two sweet potatoes crops in a year. The ethanol production from the sweet potato variety BRS Cuia is viable, representing a sustainable alternative to fuel bioethanol, as well as an alcoholic beverage due to the volatile organic compounds present in the distilled fraction.

Abstract
The sugarcane industry is one of the largest in the world and processes huge volumes of biomass, especially for ethanol and sugar production. These processes also generate several environmentally harmful solid, liquid, and gaseous wastes. Part of these wastes is reused, but with low-added value technologies, while a large unused fraction continues to impact the environment. In this review, the classic waste reuse routes are outlined, and promising green and circular technologies that can positively impact this sector are discussed. To remain competitive and reduce its environmental impact, the sugarcane industry must embrace technologies for bagasse fractionation and pyrolysis, microalgae cultivation for both CO2 recovery and vinasse treatment, CO2 chemical fixation, energy generation through the anaerobic digestion of vinasse, and genetically improved fermentation yeast strains. Considering the technological maturity, the anaerobic digestion of vinasse emerges as an important solution in the short term. However, the greatest environmental opportunity is to use the pure CO2 from fermentation. The other opportunities still require continued research to reach technological maturity. Intensifying the processes, the exploration of driving-change technologies, and the integration of wastes through biorefinery processes can lead to a more sustainable sugarcane processing industry.

Abstract
Pentose-rich hydrolysate obtained from dilute acid pretreatment of oil palm empty fruit bunches was successfully consumed by pentose-consuming yeasts: Cyberlindnera jadinii (Cj) and Pichia jadinii (Pj). Nitrogen supplementation and no additional detoxification step were required. Pj produced 5.87 g/L of biomass using a C/N ratio of 14 after 120 h of fermentation, with xylose consumption of 71%. Cj produced 10.50 g/L of biomass after 96 h of fermentation with C/N ratio of 11.5, with maximum xylose consumption of 85%. β-glucans, high value-added macromolecules, were further extracted from the yeast biomass, achieving yields of 3.1 and 3.0% from Pj and Cj, respectively. The isolated polysaccharides showed a chemical structure of β-(1,3)-glucan with residues of other molecules. Additionally, β-(1,6) branches seems to have been broken during isolation process. Further studies assessing β-glucans production at industrial scale should be carried out looking for nitrogen sources and optimizing the β-glucan isolation method.

Abstract
Timber industry generates large amounts of residues such as sawdust. Softwoods have a significant economic value for timber production and the Pinus genus is widely utilized. Thus, the aim of this work was to study the hemicellulose extraction and lignin recovery from pine (Pinus spp.) residual sawdust (PRS) by sequential acid-alkaline treatment, generating a cellulose-rich solid fraction. The hemicellulose removed was 87.11% (wt·wt-1) after dilute acid treatment at 130 °C, 4.5% (wt·wt-1) of H2SO4 for 20 min at 120 rpm. Three temperatures were evaluated for recovering the lignin and the highest yield, 93.97% (wt·wt-1), was achieved at 170 °C, 10% (wt·wt-1) of NaOH for 90 min at 120 rpm. Lignin was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance and thermogravimetry. The resulting cellulose-rich fraction exhibited polymorphic transformation. The results demonstrated that PRS is a promising lignocellulosic residue whose lignin and carbohydrates can be readily obtained.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic biomass is one of the most abundant organic resources worldwide and is a promising source of renewable energy and bioproducts. It basically consists of three fractions, cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, which confer a recalcitrant structure. As such, pretreatment steps are required to make each fraction available for further use, with acidic, alkaline and combined acidic-alkaline treatments being the most common techniques. This review focuses on recent strategies for lignocellulosic biomass pretreatment, with a critical discussion and comparison of their efficiency based on the composition of the materials. Mild pretreatments usually allow the recovery of the three biomass fractions for further transformation and valorisation. An insight is provided of newly developed technologies from recently filed patents on lignocellulosic biomass pretreatment and the transformation of agro-industrial residues into high value-added products, such as biofuels and organic acids.
